Take a chill pill earl.

A nickname is a name added to or substituted for the proper name of a familiar person, place or thing, for affection or ridicule. The term hypocoristic is used to refer to a nickname of affection between those in love or with a close emotional bond, compared with a term of endearment

KP. Thats what I have been saying. Also KP are the initials of this girl I used to sit next too at work with huge boobies and she would always lean in my direction so there's that. Double bonus

I started with "Zinger" and I'm sticking with it. It fits perfectly.

Krispy Zinger is his name. If you are tight with him, its Krispy. Otherwise, call him Mr. Zinger. Starting for the NY Knicks at 7'9, Krispy Zingerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Some of these are pretty stupid. Just stick to Kristaps, Kris or KP

He said you can call him Kris

I've also settled on KP for a while now. I started with KrisP back before the draft, which made sense at that time since we didn't really have the recognition of what just KP would be referring to. However now it's a good solid and lasting way of referring to him which can fit when he's no longer a kid. KP is what i'm sticking with.

BigRedDog - who died and made you the opinion police?

When Pirates announcer insisted on calling Roberto Clemente "Bobby", Clemente took it as demeaning his Puerto Rican heritage, and his status as a man. Clemente was correct in feeling that way.

If Kristaps prefers Kris, why the need to impose juvenile nicknames on him?

Krispy? C'mon Son!

Two simple syllables. [bKris-taps[/b] would seem to be unique enough.

Sheesh

His Name Is Kristaps
He lives on the 2nd floor
He's the one blocking your shot
I don't care if you've never heard him before

For some reason I saw the thread title and thought of that 80s song
