Nicknames for the clumsy?

Mexican nicknames?

  • My husband works at a restaurant, where all the cooks are Mexican; the cooks give everyone animal nicknames, and I was wondering if there was anyone on Y!A from Mexico, who can explain what the nicknames mean-- specifically, what personal qualities the nicknames refer to. (Most of them are not too flattering, I guess, but are pretty &*(%$#@ funny.) Here are the nicknames: 'Butterfly' 'Turtle' 'Snake' 'The Fly' 'Cockroach' 'Insecto' I get the insect pest ones, pretty much, but what about 'turtle' and 'butterfly'? and 'snake'?

  • Answer:

    Butterfly: Pretty but not very tough Turtle:shy and slow Snake:smart and devious

Sorry to a little rude and blunt, but everyone has there own meaning to the name you wrote.... Like for intense, "Butterfly"; means joto( gay guy) "The Fly"; means big eyes, and sh*ts a lot , or has a big a*s(referred to a women) It just has to do with the person who's saying it and what it means to them...... good luck
