"Cool Western Nick Names?" Topic

A fellow TMPer asked about a random name generator for the Old West ( TMP link ), and that reminded me that I was almost 90% finished with a dice-driven name generator for Gutshot before I got sidetracked and never finished it.

This is a series of charts that uses dice to select randomly from 36 options (a 6x6 grid). It doesn't need to be comprehensive, just useful and fun.

Now's a good time to get back to it, but I could use some help thinking up cool nicknames and last names. Any suggestions?

Here's a sample of what I've got so far:
The Kid
Saddlesore
Tramp
Itchy-Trigger
Cotton Mouth
Snake-eyes
King _____ (fill in the blank with an animal: "Snake," "Colt," "Rooster")
Whiskey ______ (first name after this, like "Pete" or "Larry")
Alamo ______ (first name after this, like "Jack" or "Mike")
Fat _____ or Skinny _____ (like "Bill" or "Tom")

Any other ideas?

Cactus Pete
Deadeye Jake
Pale Face Bill
Arkansas Jack
Texas Bob

Horseface….
Crazy…
Mad pierre

Names of local characters I've heard:

Pappy Rottencrotch (a ghost who haunts the outhouse, true story)
Smiler
Potato Johnson
Flapjack
Ambassador Moneybags (town drunk)
Dynamite
Crabclaw (guy had a malformed hand)
Buttrash
Shooter (a barber who won a gunfight, kinda)

Cold Chuck Johnny is one of my favourites, he was with Wyatt Earp during the bloodless Dodge City War.

Okay, how about names you WOULDN'T want to be known as in the Old West?

"Flinch"
"Cramps"
"Wince"
"Whiney"
"Weepy" (especially paired with a name, e.g. "Weepy Dick". Yeah, I know.)
"Sweaty"
"Sally"

You get the idea….

Then again, you also don't want to be remembered by another nick-name, as my Great-Grandfather was after he was shot dead by Henry Starr--"The Late."

TVAG

The same name as any State of the Union.
"Colorado"
"California"
"Texas"

But granted, "New Hampshire" really is not a good nickname.

One-Gun
Two-Gun
No-Gun

I've always thought "Calamity" is a pretty good nickname.

"Whiskey Pete" is a good nick-name. What! That's my nick-name!

To go with state names, some cities would also work, ie: Witchta Humfrey. Well, maybe not Humfrey, but you get the idea.

Medical problems also work: blind, lame, gimp, stump.

We're not being PC, we're talk'n Old West.

How would you get the nick name 'Alamo'?

Don't forget the historical "Big Nose Kate," Doc Holliday's actual sometime paramour, "Soapy" Smith (con man & all-around thug of the Alaska gold rush), and "Liver-eatin'" Johnson, the historical inspiration for Robert Redford's movie "Jeremiah Johnson" (they weren't talking about deer liver, either!).
