Explanation: in the deaf world, sign names are the equivalent of hearing nicknames. So they are visual, correct?

The saddest one I have EVER seen - even I had to wince was this particular kid at a deaf camp years ago. We were in our early teens, from different schools and all that. I walked up to him on the first day of camp - customary introduction and all that, y'know?

I tell him my name and sign name then ask him his. He shrugs, eyes slightly downcast and says "My name's Wallace."

His sign name? "Wanker".

I was incredulous. Laughing, I asked why... NOW here's the truly fucked up bit:

His mum walked in on him (she is also deaf) masturbating and immediately "shouted" at him "Your name is wanker now!" and because the deaf community is so small everywhere, in the community zone he lived in he was forever labelled wanker.

Nothing has ever beaten that one IMHO. I mean, fuck, come on, HIS MUM GAVE IT TO HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dogfucker.

El_Caz: Is it Calle or Carretera?

Calle is pronounced Kah-yeh. Wouldn't be surprised if yours is pronounced "kahl" or something of the sort. No clue what it means in swedish though.
Calle, pronounced Kah-leh. Doesn't mean anything though, we have several nicknames that are just faster/easier-to-pronounce forms of the actual name.

I do feel truly bad for Wallace, but I'm forced to wonder...how does one sign "Wanker?" My imagination is getting the best of me, lmao.

After seeing that one Youtube video...you know which video I'm talking about. I think Buster is a very bad nickname to have too.
