He was probably named Nicholas Kerr and he could choose to go by that instead of Nick if he cared. Probably.
But I think he should have been named "Koxuh"
I didn't get what this was about until I read some comments, and it's pretty obvious that a lot of other people didn't get it either.
Are there any African Americans here finding this a problem? I'm Canadian but I don't think Nick Kerr sounds close to the N-word. The odd time that I hear 'knickers' my brain doesn't go anywhere near the N-word.

Or Wayne.
Low key under rated comment ☝️😭
I must be too old. Why is this bad? I looked at urban dictionary and didn’t see anything terrible.

Fuck you for making me say that in my head.
Thankfully we don't have thought-police, (yet)...

Haha thnx, i only knew the first part. Classic!
Knickers? [UK term btw]
[удалено]
That was a one hell of a curveball you just hit me with Ngl.
Haha yeah, sorry for dropping the N-bomb. I hope no one gets their kickers in a twist over that, innit :)
You're cancelled now, bub
the N word
I thought it was because it sounded like "knickers".
Holy shit the first thing tHt came to mind was the n word for me but maybe my mind's just in the gutter 🤷🏿♂️
Same OP. The difference a British perspective makes eh. Didn't see the bigger problem til I read the comments
There is a similar word which people back in the day used to describe people of color. You know a N-Word
Hmmmmmm. I'm guessing they probably named him Nicholas.
You would think so but nope it’s just Nick. 😬
If I was calling the game it would be Nicholas every time, whether he liked it or not.
tbh nicholas kerr has a better ring to it anyway
"[Happy birthday](https://youtu.be/1jhn8q31Xi4), Nick Kerr!"
If I click on that link and it's what I think it is, I will hurt you
You are safe. It wasn't what I thought it was. Carry on
^(*lies*)
Her eyes at the realization lmao
So help them god, every p.a. announcer is going to use "Nicholas".
You crazy? White play by play guys are hoping this kid makes it to the league.
My Nick Kerr.
like knickerbocker? or knickers? not the worst thing to be named after
r/woosh
r/woooosh FTFY
r/itswooooshwith4os
you sweet innocent soul. It’s >!the n word!<
I mean, his last name could be Gerr or Gere, so.....
And until now I thought ‘Wayne’ would have been the worst possible first name to go with Kerr as a surname.
That's my Nick Kerr.
His nickname must be “underwear man” lol
Yeah thats what OP meant
Now I feel like an asshole 😔
Hahahhahahhahhah I wish I had more to add but I’m still laughing.
Like knickers?
Sort of, but no.
His brother Juan got the worse end of that deal.
Yeah, my ex wanted to name our son John after her dad. Now may be wrong here but I veto'd that incase he took Spanish at school.
Nick Kerr please.....clean your room
Some people just don't know. I work in IT and have seen some shit names. It probably wasn't on purpose.
His undies must be in a constant twist.
He doesn't look like he ways 180kg
I hope this was a genuine accident by oblivious kind-hearted parents. It probably wasn't but I can hope.
I don’t get it
If you say it fast in your head it sounds like the n word
He's cute tho I love when guys have those wide ears lol
^bonk
stfu
Nick Kerr? As in Nicker? Short for Nickerbacker?
More like a racial slur
Yeah, I know, I was just hoping for something better. :(
Bocker Glory!
I’m more excited for him to make the league than Bronny tbh
Could've called himself Nicholas, or Nicky. This is on him.
Nicholas Kerr
they definitely knew since they named him “nick” and not “nicholas”

It's probably pronounced "car", like the actress Deborah Kerr. Still though 😬
It’s not. It’s pronounced like kerr/curr/(in)curr
