Yeah, I've been in several situations where there were three or more Rustys at work and in my circle of bar and billiard friends. We bar guys assigned R1, R2, and R3 depending on age. I was R1, the youngest. My CL club calls me Rusty Nail. A couple of them were talking about me trying to remember my last name(Knowlton). They decided they knew it started with an "N" and one of them suggested Nail and it stuck. They should've realized it could have been Knail, Lol. I still haven't lived it down, but it's made for some good jokes. I was also awarded a big rusted rail spike which is on my trophy shelf.
The nickname "Rusty" usually goes to redheads. My parents were expecting one of those since it runs in the family, but I came out with dark brown. My real name is Benjamin, but I think "Rusty" fits me better. The Cyrillic words on the nose of my Yak-9 says "Russ the Nailer," even with a backward "R." Avaiojet Charles calls me Rattlecan Rusty.
