The DU Lounge

does not lend itself to any known nicknames, although one of my brothers used to shorten it from two syllables to one. But he was the only one who did.

As an adult I had a nickname at one job, given to me by a supervisor. It sounded like an insult, but was actually a compliment because of why he used it. He called me Bozo, after the children's weighted punching bag clown toy because he said that, like the toy, no matter how hard I got hit by problems, I always bounced back upright.

He's the only person who called me that and the name did not last beyond that job.
