Nicknames are the thing, how the friends and social environment call people. They are sometimes only the translations about real names or they are marking some personal detail of the man. When some gang member is called "the Rat" backward, that could mean that this person likes so-called "rat bikes", what are one style to make Choppers. But that can also mean, that this person is suspected the informer for the police or that person can also tell things for other members of the gang, or be some other way traitorous.
But there is also nicknames, what mission is to show respect for the person. That kind of nicknames are very fine, and their mission is also cover the identity of the carrier of that name. But when we are thinking about the gangs, there are persons, who use only nicknames, we are facing the person, who have something to hide. Or sometimes the nickname of the person is given because this person is violent and other members of the gang would afraid that man. In that case, the other persons might use themselves very disgusting nicknames, because they want to please that person.
Sometimes the nickname is given because the person looks like something. When we are talking about nicknames, like "Spooky", the person is normally very big and strong, and maybe that person walks the little bit bent position. So that person is exactly like some "Spooky" in the children's channel. But when we are thinking about the shape of actor David Duchovny in the TV-series "X-files", does this person look like some spooky in the TV? This is one flop in this fictive series, what told about humanoids and FBI.
But when we are looking at those "Spookies", there would be children, who afraid those characters, and maybe if the fear is connected with the summer home, there could be some person stand in the yard when the child has been waking up in the night. And if that kind of afraid is very dominating, the reason for that should be uncovered. If there would stand some man in poplin jacket, the reason for that would be nice to know.
