Better Nickname for Yao Ming

THE ASIAN SENSATION

 

SKY YAO !!!

"I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky!"
---The song of Jordans film.

Yao is the sky.

Sky is the best nickname for Yao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you choose this, remember me

 

RED DRAGON

 

LOL

maybe Yao "Bling Bling " Ming

hahaha sounds kinda ghetto...or something off the Hot Boys soundtrack

 

Note to all: keep in mind that Yao is is LAST name, and Ming is his first name. Some of those 'Yao' nicknames don't work so well when you realize that it's his last name.


It needs to roll off the tongue quickly and easily, like "Dream' or "T-Mac". I thinK Dragon or Sting are the closest so far. (I like Dynasty, but it just doesn't come out quickly.

The Yellow Menace.

 

What? I'm not real sure anyone will except that one.

I haven't heard Calvin and Hobbes say it yet, but is it Yao-Za or Yaozer or Yaoza'?

The further things go, the more it looks like he will be a man that wears many nicknames. Many of the just plain weird like Yaotomatic. I will never use that one, ever.(unless paid to do so)

 

I like the Yellow Menace!!

 

The best is fisherman

shark---fisherman

 

how about "bow wow yao yippy yo yippy ya" or for short bow wow yao.

 

LITTLE BOW YAO

 

Yao"beast from the east" Ming

what about just calling him "YAO" .... kinda like how they call shaquille Shaq. or "MING" Thats all we need....i didnt know ming was his first name.. iguess in china its ming yao..but why do we call him yao ming then?? someone clearify please....

also...think of a superhero name.........kinda like ice man...

i like Optimo..

and also Yao"impregnable" Ming..jk

 

"The Raptor" because of his small arms and ferocious play.

 

Calvin Murphy uses the expression "BIG YAO!"
Bill Worrel uses the expression " YAO-ZA!"

 

Yao dreaMING

 

Hahaha, read it out loud youself, it sounds funny, doesnt it.
"Y'all dreaming"

 

What's important is that in a year or two, we'll all be calling him Yao Ring.

 

In China his name is Yao Ming. In the US it would be read Ming Yao and that's why "Yao" is on his jersey. We call him Yao Ming cuz that's just the proper way to say his name in Chinese.

Just like me. I go by Wei Chiang here in the US. In China I would be Chiang Wei.

Wei

 

That does sound menacing, but not in a good way. Kind of sounds like a disease.

 

I think we understood...... just for the slower people of the BBS....

Anyway, all I can think of is:

Yao-Mamma
Yao-Dad
Yao-Diddy
Yao-Mamma's Mamma
