I have a friend who goes by the nickname Money. He doesn’t have this nickname because he’s wealthy. He has this nickname because another friend can’t hear. One night, while they were working, Money said:

I hate when old people call me honey.

My other friend thought he said Money. It never occurred to him that it was odd for older people to call our friend Money. The nickname has stuck for about ten years now.
