    I always thought the Spanish ones were pretty funny.

    Jose "Mantequilla" Nápoles (mantequilla = butter)
    Ricardo "El Finito" Lopez (el finito = the fine/thin one I guess is the best way to describe)
    Jorge “Travieso” Arce (travieso = naughty)
    Humberto “La Chiquita” González (la chiquita = the small one (feminine form for some reason))

    and the list goes on and on...
