I like to sing the following song when Maxi scores a goal, I guess this is nickname related:
Oompa, Loompa, Doopity-Do
Maxi Moralez just scored on you

Adding Sweat and Brovsky's to the list - where does Birthday Boy come from?
Guys, if possible, please provide the meaning behind the nickname - it might be ovious to you, but not others
JGarrettLieb and
Gotham Gator could you update your posts with some of the meanings? Thanks much!

maginot line was very effective. thats why germany avoided it all together and attacked through the lowlands i.e belgium AKA ben sweat.... the sweatlands... nah nevermind, wont stick to tangential.

I know what you mean. Briefly considered (even registered the domain) "Maginot Strategy" as the name for a consulting venture, but I ultimately had to abandon it as too clever. Although, probably would have been a decent litmus test for whether a not a potential client was thoughtful enough to be helped.
Birthday Boy - Kreis cost us what should have been our first USOC win by subbing in Wingdings on his birthday to play in front of his family vs. Cosmos. He proceeded to be the root cause of numerous goals and other assorted danger.
Well, it didn't prevent the Germans from going right around it and then wherever they wanted in France. Paris fell less than 5 weeks after the invasion started.
The Maginot Line: Strong but immobile. You can play right around it and into the goal.

JGarrettLieb and
I added a few that were less obvious.
Slosh for Saunders had to do with his propensity to spill the ball.
Not one of my favorites, admittedly, but what else to do with that name? It begs for something, but nothing seems to really work.
Like many, it's basically neutral (not positive or negative). If anything, it's a plea.
I'll let you do the insulting ones. You have both stronger inclination and proclivity in that area.

"I wonder if wikipedia is correct in stating his actual name is Lord Kwame Watson- Siriboe"
See also next post: "No it's not. People keep spamming that page with random junk. They also keep putting that he plays for Lord FC and that his nickname is Watsinho."
Thanks! I'll add most of them, but not all - like ones for Chanot (Don't Chanot), Brillant (Brilliant!), and Marratita (Hey Matarrita!) are more phrases and/or not really nicknames
It stuck. He was called Lord Kwame here more than Kwame, Watson-Siriboe or KWS. Plus it helps differentiate him from Awuah.
Well "No Sweat" works either positively or negatively, and it captures his propensity to continually look like he CBA to hustle/track back/close down/etc., despite having made the roster as a trialist.
Chanot is Luxembourgish, not French.
I think Ring was called somewhere a Honey Badger, obviously because of his aggressive tackling.
that was you haha
