Nickname

Some players in Hattrick are born with a nickname, and some may be awarded a nickname by the HTs, after some special performance. Also GMs might give a player an initial if a manager has two players with the same name.

With the release of Hattrick Gears on November 1, 2011, it became possible to select nicknames for your players on a pay-for-perks basis.
