We all know Sawyer is the master of nicknames--able to leap from condescending to absolutely inappropriate in a single bound. I mean, I really have to hand it to the guy. The sheer volume of snappy monikers he has at his immediate disposal is both comprehensive and surprisingly creative. As evidence, I have compiled a list of all of the nicknames Sawyer used in the first nine episode of season one, but before I lay them all out, I thought it would be interesting to pose two questions:
1. What would Sawyer call YOU? (This one frightens me a bit.)
2. Do you think there is a larger pattern we can see in Sawyer's nicknaming practices?
Consider. And take a look at what he's done with his fellow islanders:
SAYID: (most nicknames to date) Boy, Buddy, Chief, Abdul, Al Jazeera, Ali, Arab, Jackass, Omar, Capt. Falafel, Mohammad, Boss
JACK: Doc, Brother, Hero, Jacko, Saint Jack, Cowboy, Chico, Jackass, Dr. Quinn
KATE: Sweetheart, Freckles, Belle of the Ball, Baby
HURLEY: Lardo, Pork Pie
SHANNON: Sweet Cheeks, Sticks
CHARLIE: Sport, Amigo
BOONE: Boy, Metro
JIN: Mr. Miyagi
*BONUS: What other people have called Sawyer:
Sayid: Criminal
Boone: Hick
Hurley: Jethro
Jess: Baby
