How many nicknames do you have?

Common mullein has the most nicknames of any plant I have come ever across: cowboy toilet paper, hig candlewick, Indian rag weed, bullicks lungwort, Adams-rod, hare’s-beard, ice-leaf, woolly mullein, velvet mullein, blanket mullein, beggar’s blanket, Moses’ blanket, poor man’s blanket, Our Lady’s blanket, old man’s blanket, feltwort, flannel.  I come from a family where everyone had nicknames. Mine was Mickey (for Mickey Mouse). How about? Do you have any nicknames?
