JV nicknames??????
Ones I already have heard/read....
-The Lethaluanian (I like it on paper, kind of a strain on the tongue)
-The Big Lithuanian Fundamental (not original enough to be main one, but a nice tribute if he keeps improving)
I got nothing
-I always want to call him Gandalf, from that clip of him last year at the LKL all-star game.
Ideas? Something you've heard somewhere? Lets bring back real NBA nicknames, and not just lame ones like CP3 and CB4. JV17 just sounds like a juvey league.

Big V
The Barbarian
The Baltic Beast
The Baltic Beast is my favorite, and I reserve the right to call him that from now on
*Lithuania is the largest of 3 Baltic states
I like Baltic Beast a lot...was trying to think of something region-appropriate.

I think if you take sound away, Lethaluanian is pretty great too...but it just doesn't flow out when you're talking.
Baltic Beast/Giant are both pretty good for saying.

*Kind of going with that and mixing with Gandalf stuff, I had to go look up the fire he's keeper of...Secret Fire or Flame Imperishable are not great either....

The Baltic Barbarian/Beast/Giant/Behemoth/Brobdingnagian/Titan/Colossus/Leviathan
My favorites are:
The Baltic Barbarian, Baltic Beast, Baltic Behemoth, Baltic Colossus, and Baltic Leviathan (sounds almost like Lithuanian)
Baltic Beast roles of the tongue the best, but The Baltic Leviathan is a siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick name.The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!

All the Baltic ones are not bad....anything with that alliteration is good....Beast, Behemoth, Barbarian....and @enlightenment, I reallly like Leviathan as well
*I would probably use Beast as the standard one though as well.
**Although it's quite a bit smoother without the "u", as Lethalanian, and not LethaluanianLast edited by white men can't jump; Tue Apr 2, 2013, 11:17 AM.
