...particularly my Jersey name. At most schools where I live (don't know if this is standard or what) in Year 12 you get a jersey which is made in school colours etc to 'celebrate your 13 years of compulsory schooling' blah blah blah. ANYHOW. You get nicknames on the back.
I cannot for the life of me think of anything i like!!!
So you guys get to help me out!!! I'm desperate for anything here people!!! One of my friends is getting 'Ginga Ninja' coz she's a redhead and it rhymes, and another is getting 'Horse Hippie' coz those are two things she likes. I like elves and magic and dragons and all things like that, but i can't think of a way to say that that i like, and if i can't i'll just have to put 'Lindsey' AND I DON"T WANNA DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Give suggestions to the nickname challenged!!!! _________________ Imagination is the greatest posession one can have.....I do believe in fairies, I do, I do

I'm always fond of titles more than nicknames, per se.
For example, my 12th year, I signed all my tests as "overlord," just for laughs. The sad thing is, the teachers did not seem to notice 0.0
What if your nickname was simply like "Bridge Keeper" (for those of you who know Monty Python...) or Draco, 'cause you like dragons (maybe Harry Potter too?) or some obscure latin/greek name. Or something that is totally NOT you. I knew a girl named Stephanie, she was a real girly-girl....everyone called her "Joe." Weird, huh?
Anywho, it doesn't have to rhyme or be witty, it just has to be memorable! _________________ "Find what you're following and chase it down."

Heh, you don't want to hear what mine was in High School. Anyway...
Magical Girl? (reference to anime/manga about magical girls)
Or you could go with the japanese: maho shojo
There's always a character name from a favorite series. Anything people might reference you with?
You could use the elvish translation of 'dragon', but what it is depends on what translator you use. The most reliable I've found says these for old Quenya language (http://www.uib.no/people/hnohf/wordlists.htm):
DRAGON - lócë (serpent, snake; "so do the Eldar name the worms of Melko[r]", LT2:85), angulócë, fenumë;
WINGED DRAGON - rámalócë;
FIRE-DRAGON - urulócë (pl. Urulóci is attested in Silm:138, there capitalized; surprisingly, Urulóci is used as a singular form in Silm:255);
SPARK-DRAGON - fëalócë;
FISH-DRAGON - lingwilócë (sea-serpent) -LOK; cf. ANGWA, LT2:341, RAM, UR, PHAY, LIW
or
Lhûg (in the Sindarin language) |

Gah I tried to come up with something for you but my mind i drawing a blank on this.
What about Gaurdian of the Lake, you know another nudge towards the legend of Arthur.
If it where me i probably put something like Cousin to the librarian from discworld(who's name i can't remember, darn brain for it's holes). But thats me, and I am one strange dragonchicken.  _________________ "I am a proud Vampirate since I couldn't decide if I wanted to be a vampire or a pirate when I grew up.

What about
The Migthy Elvish Dragonchickentamer
or
The Mighty Elvish Dragontamer
Hmm maybe those two are to long...
Maybe a shorter one like this
The Dread Elfpirate
I will return if I think of something else. _________________ "I am a proud Vampirate since I couldn't decide if I wanted to be a vampire or a pirate when I grew up. I solved that by being both."
