    It’s probably the most common nickname that is actually used by people who know and hang out with Wood. It’s natural for one syllable last names to use a first initial and last name. Especially when the first initial ends with an “ee” sound.
    D House
    E Go(radon)

    but J Tate and J Wall don’t sound as good as an “e” sounding initial.

    Man I really hope he's not hurt seriously.
    If this always getting hurt thing becomes a trend we may have to call him "Captain Kindling"!

    I apologize for mentioning the Crucifix nickname that was used in Detroit, as I was not thinking that it could be viewed as offensive. People wear crosses all the time and I am a believer as well, but I can certainly see where that nickname could be viewed in a different aspect. On a more humorous note, someone on VMaxwell’s twitter actually came up with the nickname “Born Again”.
