There's a small fishing village in Holland called Urk, which I came across through work years ago.A lot of "nicknames" are received for various reasons in childhood and some of them become fixed for life. Where I grew up, in a small fishing town in NE Scotland there are a preponderence of Stewarts, Campbells, Thompson, Smiths and McCleods. With so many of these having similar christian names it becomes easier to know who is who locally by a byname usually given for doing or saying something in childhood but sometimes handed down from generation to generation.
