Everyone loves a nickname, and Supernatural has plenty for the characters, the actors, and of course the fans ourselves.
Contents
Sam and Dean
While not exactly a nickname, the most common term used to refer to Sam and Dean by fans, and occasionally by Bobby, is 'the boys'. Jared and Jensen are also referred to as the boys by both fans and fellow cast and crew.
Sam and Dean have a ritual where Dean calls Sam a "bitch" and Sam responds with "Jerk". While this is strongly associated with the characters, it has only been referenced three times on the show.[1][2][3]. (video compilation of references).
Bobby's affectionate term for the boys is Idjits.
Most commonly it is the Winchester's adversaries who refer to them by a variety of pejorative epithets:
- Uriel refers to Dean, and all humans, as 'mud monkeys' [4]
- Atropos, Crowley and finally Castiel himself, refer to Sam and Dean as Cas' 'pets'. [5][6][7]
Probably the most expressive term is used by the ever articulate Crowley who calls them "denim-wrapped nightmares". [6]. He also calls them the Hardy Boys<ref= name="five10">5.10 Abandon All Hope</ref>, a term long-used in the Television Without Pity recaps of Supernatural.
Dean
Dean doesn't really have a nickname. Sam calls him Dean. A lot.
Occasionally others use terms that refer to his good looks: Ghostfacer Ed Zeddmore calls him "chisel chest" [8], and Brandon a waiter at Biggerson's Restaurant refers to him as "Ken Doll" as he serves him a turducken slammer.
Sam
Dean: House rules, Sammy. Driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole.
Sam: You know, Sammy is a chubby 12 year old. It's Sam, okay?– , 1.01 Pilot
Dean's nickname for Sam is Sammy, generally used either for teasing or in moments of great emotion. While Sam initially protests its use after he and Sam first reunite in 2005, it becomes clear it has as much meaning for Sam as it does for Dean when Gordon Walker uses it and Sam retorts "He's the only one who gets to call me that."[9].
Michael refers to Sam as Dean's "darling little Sammy". [10]Darling Sammy is also the nickname for Sam in the Television Without Pity recaps by Demian.
