best mafia nickname from this bust

how can you have a guy named "VINCENZO FROGIERO" and not give him a frog-related nickname? vinny carwash is pretty great but you're just thumbing your nose at the classics there

c'mon... HOOTIE

I mean who the fuck is gonna pay up to a wiseguy named Hootie for chrissakes

I like junior lollipops

wonder if tony bagels ever graduated past making bagel runs for the crew

"Baby Shacks," "The Old Man," and "the Professor"

one of these is not like the other

yeah "the old man" is not a good nickname for an infant who teaches at a university

if Anthony "Cheeks"/"Anthony Firehawk"/"Anthony Nighthawk" was also known as "Cheeks Firehawk" I'd vote for him.

"Junior Lollipops"

Also I thought this was going to be like a sculpture bust with something like William Blake's take on Laocoön going on as far as all the name placement concerned.

JOHN HARTMANN, also known as "Lumpy," "Fatty" and "Fats"

also "fatass," "fatty mcfatpants" and "fatty fat fat fat"

hootie for sure

it's not too late to make this happen

mobs nicknames at some point started to overlap with the usernames on a parrothead messageboard

baby shacks

all the way

GIOVANNI VELLA, also known as "John Vella,"

they dug deep for this one

Junior Lollipops fuiud

2. ANTHONY LICATA, also known as "Cheeks," "Anthony Firehawk," "Anthony Nighthawk,"

two of these were, i suspect, mostly self-applied.

i'm thinking BFL on this

BFL must've also stood for Big Fuckin' Larry.

tony bagels, obv

i feel like there's probably a feedback loop now where real mobsters love mob movies and the sopranos so much that they probably come up with crazy nicknames influenced by all that

the guys w/ 3 nicknames crack me up the most, especially this one:

9. LUIGI MANOCCHIO, also known as "Baby Shacks," "The Old Man," and "the Professor"

which would be funny considering the running joke on the sopranos of mobsters being obsessed w/ the godfather

xp to goole: the full uncut version goes like this:

2. ANTHONY LICATA, also known as "Cheeks," "Anthony Firehawk," "Anthony Nighthawk," "Nighthawk" and "Firehawk"

this is the full list not done in by the char limitation of the polls

20. VINCENT AULISI, also known as "The Vet"

19. GIOVANNI VELLA, also known as "John Vella," "Mousey" and "Little John"

18. STEPHEN DEPIRO, also known as "Beach"

17. ANTHONY CAVEZZA, also known as "Tony Bagels"

16. JOHN BRANCACCIO, also known as"Johnny Bandana"

15. ANTHINO RUSSO, also known as "Hootie"

14. FRANK BELLANTONI, also known as "Meatball"

13. CHRISTOPHER REYNOLDS, also known as "Burger"

12. VINCENZO FROGIERO, also known as "Vinny Carwash"

11. JOSEPH CARNA, also known as "Junior Lollipops"

10. DENNIS DELUCIA, also known as "Fat Dennis," "Little Dennis" and "the Beard"

9. LUIGI MANOCCHIO, also known as "Baby Shacks," "The Old Man," and "the Professor"

8. ANTHONY DURSO, also known as "Baby Fat Larry" and "BFL"

7. GIUSEPPE DESTEFANO, also known as "Pooch"

6. JOHN AZZARELLI, also known as "Johnny Cash"

5. ANDREW RUSSO, also known as "Mush"

4. VINCENT FEBBRARO, also known as "Jimmy Gooch"

3. BENJAMIN CASTELLAZZO, also known as "Benji," "The Claw" and "the Fang"

2. ANTHONY LICATA, also known as "Cheeks," "Anthony Firehawk," "Anthony Nighthawk," "Nighthawk" and "Firehawk"

1. JOHN HARTMANN, also known as "Lumpy," "Fatty" and "Fats"

everytime I go through the list I reflexively search for johnny two times

feel christopher reynolds and john hartmann do not belong, but maybe they are italian through maternal lineage

Tony Bagels ftw

VINCENT FEBBRARO, also known as "Jimmy Gooch"

"vinny carwash" is underrated I think. I had to vote for "junior lollipops" though.

Tony Bagels or Vinnie Carwash.

This thread reminded me of this:

Frankie Shrugs' partner, who was quieter, was Petey Breath Mints. This was not the gangland name this veteran crack dealer had hoped for. Petey Breath Mints got his name because the smell from his throat could knock a fly off a shit wagon. For a brief time, he had been called Petey Ass Teeth, but he must have appealed to the capo of Mafia name dispensing for a new moniker.

from this book which I read for some reason

Baby Fat Larry

12. VINCENZO FROGIERO, also known as "Vinny Carwash"

^ let's not forget his business associate, Luigi the Squeegee

I'm gonna get the bagels get the bagels

vinnie carwash!

lotta goodness here, but any answer other than Junior Lollipops is challops imo

I don't think I could call someone 'burger' with a straight face

http://www.residentadvisor.net/images/profiles/wolfgangvoigt.jpg

pronounced Vinny Cahwarsh

Oh, Tony Bagels has to win this.

http://www.worldpokertour.com/Shared/Players/Bios/A/Antonio_Cavezza.aspx

He got into the entrepreneurial world at the early age of 18 and bought his first business when he was 21. Before long, he was able to sell that venture and open his own bagel shop. Within three years, he was able to buy his own home, answer to the nickname "Bagels," and start making his way in the poker world.

What would the Chin do?

iirc a minor sopranos actor was in court for one of them, is thick with (one of) them, or something. james caan definitely is.

I was torn between Tony Bagels, Junior Lollipops and Vinnie Carwash - ended up going for Tony Bagels as it's the one I could most imagine hearing being introduced in that bit in Goodfellas with Jimmy Two Times.

Petey Ass Teeth

This is cracking me up. Ass teeth!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

GLOL genuine laugh out loud at petey breath mints' story.

lmao Jimmy Gooch

"Beach" and "Mush" are the sleepers

there's a guy in my neighborhood (which probably has its mafiosos) called johnny no-pants. he's not a wise guy, he just likes wearing shorts

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ooohhh tony bagels got burned

i think i voted for The Vet. it's so strange and subtly menacing! it could mean anything!

like he cures sick animals

BFL wuz robbed!

BFL FO' LIFE, YO!

poor Hootie

Baby Shacks lover, stand up!

No one repped for Johnny Bandana?

i think i voted for The Vet. it's so strange and subtly menacing! it could mean anything!
