Pick Your Favorite Sawyer Nickname, Sweet Cheeks!

Josh Holloway by Mario Perez/ABC
Check out this genius YouTube video, in which a very patient videographer has sandwiched together all the nicknames that Lost's Sawyer (Josh Holloway) has used over the first three seasons. Sayid (aka Omar, Mohamed, Capt. Falafel and Al-Jazeera) and Hurley (aka Pillsbury, Jabba, Deep Dish and Jumbotron) bear the brunt of his clever cruelty. Which one's your favorite? I'm going with this odd exclamation to Bernard: "What, you got union trouble down at the sand factory, Norma Rae?" — Mickey O'Connor

My favorites are definitely "shortround" and then the rest are for Hurley. "Grimace" , "Jumbotron" and my #1: Bar-Bar. What kills me is that Hurley corrects him, "It's 'Babar.'

my two faves are when he called Ben George (as in, that little place you always wanted, george?) and when he called hurley Snuffy. I love that the writers inject these cultural references so the viewer knows Sawyer is deeper than what he shows.

My favorites, in no particular order, are: Oliver Twist, Broken-Nose Man, Costanza, and "Bar-Bar."

Who knew Sawyer was a Seinfeld fan? :^O

Along the same lines, you can also search for "Scrubs, girls names" and get every girls name Cox has called JD in two convenient videos, season 1-3 and 4-5. Clearly someone has too much time on their hands, but it's great stuff.

I think the best line came from Hurley, referencing Sawyer. When Miles called him a name he said "oh, great. They brought us another Sawyer"!

As a female with freckles, I have to say that when he calls Kate "Freckles," I always go a bit gooey.
