Your Ozzie Name!
You must know that we Australians hate to use complete words when a diminutive will do.
"Goin to Brissie for a coldie, hope those bloddy mozzies and blowies aren't out"
They also do the same for names. So have you all picked your new ozzie name yet or are you going to let the locals do it for you???
Examples:
Peter Sterling = Sterlo
Paul Hogan = Hoges
Paul Vautin = Fatty
Paul Harrigan = The Chief
John Howard = Little Johnny
David Kosh = Koshy
Wally Lewis = The King
