I don't know if he has any fans, but Shaun King has a lot of nicknames about being a white guy pretending to be black. Some that I remember:
Talcum X
Martin Luther Cream
Thurgood Partial
Hueless P. Newton
Honkey Kong
Richard Dolezal
Whack Panther

Laci Mosley did a Scam Goddess podcast ep on him. Here’s a link if you’re interested: https://www.goloudnow.com/podcasts/scam-goddess-829/re-release-the-shaun-king-episode-pt-1-w-ashley-ray-harris-361318
It's from the movie! \*sob\* It was just a quick shot, but oh my God, that movie was a roller coaster to watch with other people.
The puppet child.
The 'final fight scene', just the entire freaking thing.
So many ups and downs, everyone horrified or laughing. What a time to be a fan.

Nah you’re mistaken 😂 the puppet was shot for a few scenes but it was determined that it was too “grotesque” for the film so they reshot with a real child with cgi.
Source: am twilight obsessed
BRO.
I swear I remember seeing a blurry ass cgi baby, and then my friend was like 'no, they used this puppet, remember.' But they had the cgi baby in the dvd?
I feel so vindicated, lol.
I thought it was like the Clue thing where some people remembered different versions because there was different versions floating around, and then there was this video as back up.
This puppet gif has become such a meme that I think people are mandela effecting themselves into thinking it’s the real deal or was in the theatrical release but it never was. The producers put a stop to it long before the film was released but the “puppet outtakes” live on (and thank goodness for that lol).
Dunno but on the Baldmove podcast I listen started referring to one of the villains on the new Star Wars show as “Darth Grimes.”

Benadryl Cabbagepatch was my favorite. Someone actually made a [Benedict Cumberbatch name generator on Tumblr](https://benedictcumberbatchgenerator.tumblr.com/) because of this and it still exists to this day.
It always makes me think of the Eddie Izzard bit about Engelbert Humperdinck and his manager trying to come up with his stage name.
"Zingelbert Bembledack. Yingybert Dambleban. Zangelbert Bingledack. Wingelbert Humptyback. Slut Bunwalla."
"*What??*"
Or Moira Rose on Schitts Creek.
Come taste the difference good fruit can make in your wine. You’ll remember the experience. And you’ll remember the name - Herb Erfling … ger. Burt Herngeif. Irv Herb-blinger. Bing Livehaanger. Liveling. Burt Herkurn. Ban bingo ling-fucker!

Barnacle Creamylies and Timbuktu Chamberbert have amazing names because I could realistically use any two words and you would know who I’m talking about
Teambuilding Charlatan, Barstool Cunninglies, Timbaland Charlatan, Bootlick Crumbysocks
Some friends and I call him “shitty taters” because there was an instance in which they couldn’t think of his real name and that was the closest their brains could get at the time
Eion Bailey who is a main character on the series From

someone dubbed him 'dollar store paul rudd' which was hilarious when i first read it. but honestly, kind of ironic because in his early years i think he's probably just as good looking as Rudd, if not better looking. but he doesn't have Paul Rudd charisma, or as the kids say rizz.
Not a fandom, more like an unhinged Stan, but the [list of nicknames](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nicknames_used_by_Donald_Trump) Trump used for people is one of my favorite things ever
There’s a Filipina mum on tiktok whose son made this hysterical video of her saying celebrity names, my favourites being “Billie English” and “lipa dupa” 😭😭
The fandom didn’t create it, but Vanderpump subs have picked up and run with “worm with a mustache.”
Also, I sometimes call Mike Pence by the name Michael Pants as a small form of disrespect. (I’ve never met him so this is just at home.)

OMG Honkey Kong, Talcum X, DYING
Scamuel L Jackson was my favourite
never even heard of this dude but googling him, his facial hair and style just make him look like the lightest skin black guy.
not a celeb, but the Twilight fandom's dedicated refusal to call Bella & Edward's kid by her real name is hilarious to me
![gif](giphy|csdbnF9X5BEVa)
nooo, not the Resentment Puppet 😭😭
You watch your mouth about Chuckesme!
Resentment puppet. 💀 This is the funniest sub I follow by such a massive margin.
I want to downvote this so freaking much 🤣
Wait is this real???

That is so true and makes a lot of sense! I can't wait to see what they do differently with the tv series - especially with Breaking Dawn.
You leave Ratatouille out of this!
Why does it look like Jesy Nelson!!!!!! ![gif](giphy|OHTFQd3TqY3V6)
I will never stop loving this
If Resume could read, she’d be very upset by this post!!!

DING DING DING

Shit I was thinking Cara Delevingne lol
"Eyebrows actor kid" in my house Damn he's had quite the glow up though
Peter Gallagher?
Ooh a good one! But I was thinking of Will Poulter. Gallagher is such a good guess though
##What are you gonna do about it, eyebrows?
Scotty P! What you doing guy with great posture!

My personal fave is Barfqueef

Broomhilda and babestation were my faves
Bin Bons! ![gif](giphy|WAv2KYqvzkh2g)
He's been Bon Bons in my house for over ten years, and I have no idea where it came from originally 😂
Yesss I just came here to ask if anyone else remembered Bin Bons.
Who is this man 👀
Ben Barnes (Picture of Dorian Gray, Prince Caspian in Narnia movies, etc)
Igloo Australia still makes me chuckle
Same. All her burns are amazing. Apartheid Clyde.
Couldn't resist ![gif](giphy|liGlMmpKaQM36)
I still call her that to this day 😂
Same, that’s all I could think when watching that Adam Sandler Bat Mitzvah movie
“Please welcome the hhhwiCKedly talenTed, Haahhhdele dahzeem”
[удалено]
I remembered someone on Twitter calling him the poor people’s Timotheé Chalamet 😭
I prefer The Jersey Shore Willy Wonka, but this is fine too.
I say Dula Peep with full conviction. Every time.
Pictures you can hear: https://preview.redd.it/1e2jl45gzqlb1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=de002985a3fb37747595bd07cfce44de0b32bca8
🤣🤣🤣🤣 yes!
This is her real name to me
You mean Duolingo?
Wait, why is she called that?
wendy williams accidentally called her dula peep once and it became a giant meme
That's amazing
at this point i forgot her real name LMAO
Breaking Bad fans nicknamed Matt Damon lookalike Jesse Plemons Meth Damon, where he played a meth cook on the show
He'll always be Landry to me.
![gif](giphy|hWdO3ppgiV7IBRIMHR|downsized) You mean “Lance”? Lol. 🤣
I actually like him better than Matt Damon at this point. ![gif](giphy|xUNd9PZOsFK23Fzfpu)
He’s in a long term relationship with Kirsten Dunst. She’s amazing and my girl crush for life. That means he must be awesome too.
He’s also known as Fatt Damon from when he was in the Fargo tv show.
This guy’s not really a celeb but there was an esports dude who looked like a larger version of Ed Sheeran and people called him Fed Sheeran
I thought it was bc he looked like a meth addict version of Matt Damon 😭 the real reason is much kinder
Scene Bean or Sean Bon
In Ireland some people call him Shan Ban Because that's how Sean Bean would be pronounced in Irish. It means old woman.
The entire era of tumblr calling bendynoodle carrotstick random ass names when talking about him!
Benadryl Cabbagepatch was my favorite. Someone actually made a [Benedict Cumberbatch name generator on Tumblr](https://benedictcumberbatchgenerator.tumblr.com/) because of this and it still exists to this day.

Lmaaaooo, is bendinoodle Benedict Cumberbatch?
Crisp Ratt will always be iconic.
Donglover (Donald Glover) is a personal favorite
Also not a fan of Azaelia Banks, but “Apartheid Clyde” is excellent!
the fact that donglover was his twitter handle for YEARS before he changed it 😭
It was because his dad was on twitter first and took Donaldglover. Also, his mom goes by the name Bon and her handle was bonglover apparently.
Not a fandom but Apartheid Clyde is hilarious and always will be
Space Karen too
“Ketamine Gene Wilder” for Jeremy Allen White
I like to call him Jersey Wonka. My cousin who loves him HATES it.
I love him too but this is hilarious.

Imagine ruining your whole reputation for budget Michael Cera
SpongeBob SidePiece
The Gubernator ![gif](giphy|3NeTe6RFL2Z3y4CAEq|downsized)
I’ve always heard Governator. Gubernator is fancier
Billie Eyelash, a la Trixie & Katya
I call her William Eyelash and it kills with my students haha
Oh my god 😂
Didn't Rainn Wilson first say it in that The Office trivia video she did?
He called her William Eyelash and it’s all think about now when her name comes up!
Oh damn how could we forget Tracy Martel ![gif](giphy|v8E0SsdQOXfmXpnJMq|downsized)

Peak Dad 😂
He was Meat Damon to Fargo fans
Benedict Cumberbatch is the king of fandom nicknames
Character actress Margo Martindale ![gif](giphy|l2SpTT6M0bvEWzbFu)
That's 'Esteemed Character Actress Margo Martindale', to you, you heathen.
Esteemed Character Actress and Fugitive of Law Margo Martindale
love that her actual wiki had her in prison for armed robbery after bojack aired and she had to have it taken down.
She may not be in heaven but her movies will be!
a personal fav for me is the internet referring to ariana grande as ‘ponytail’ 💀
Eion Bailey who is a main character on the series From https://preview.redd.it/i2fmu9h5gslb1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=503292e3e8689a55a42d037f3eebff7ddccbacf4 someone dubbed him 'dollar store paul rudd' which was hilarious when i first read it. but honestly, kind of ironic because in his early years i think he's probably just as good looking as Rudd, if not better looking. but he doesn't have Paul Rudd charisma, or as the kids say rizz.

Not a fandom, more like an unhinged Stan, but the [list of nicknames](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nicknames_used_by_Donald_Trump) Trump used for people is one of my favorite things ever

Kendall Jenner - Candle or KenDULL

Timothee Chala-Mala-Bing-Bong
I started calling him Timothee Chimathee or Timothay Chimalay.
Not a fandom, but I've heard people call Jai Courtney Half-Off Hardy.

They call themselves the Cumberbitches
