People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor
Barney Rubble- For both a board member and developer
Little Man "insert first name"- For developers of short stature and/or limited creativity
Darth "insert last name"- Anyone who seems evil
On the ground, protecting the Cyburbia Shove since 2004.
Napoleon: short developer who refused to speak to any women in the Planning Dept.
Mr Plaid: old developer who wore plaid coats and wanted to hug all the women in the office
Oh boy These are just the ones I can name.
Stinky Homeless Developer Guy He lived in a stationwagon with his long time drinking buddy, owned land, and visited our office monthly. He actually could have developed his land and made a profit if he had not blown his brain away with booze and body odor.
Ostritch Boots *Last Name* He wore boots made out of ostritch.
Cracky McRealtor He has some sort of amphetimine or crackish habit. He is always looking to cut a deal.
Ms. Formerly Nice Hooters A well past her prime realtor/devloper who insists on giving you cleavage shots you don't want because those boobs used to get her some sweet deals in the 70's.
Waterpark Boy: a guy who has a dream of building a waterpark in our community. He has a piece of land picked out (although the owner has said he's never talked to the guy) and a notebook full of pictures and magazine/catalog cutouts of the rides that will be in the park. Shows up every 3 to 4 months.
Clueless Bob: has developed a couple of subdivisions, but the process, conditions and board actions always have to be explained to him...repeatedly.
Your Friend: we call him this to the subdivision administrator just because he showed up every/every other day in the office when he has a project going on - builds low ball stuff and doesn't respond to complaints by the residents once the lot is sold, so we get to act as a go between on many occassions.

Tomato Head
Giggles
Sausage Fingers
Lex Luther
man, I know there are more but I can't think of them right now.
The only one we have is Ted Bundy because he looks like Ted did. We called his development "Bundy Heights" before he finally came up with a name for it.

The Bear Maker
Big Dog
Over Lord
Drinky Drinkerston
When Jesus said "love your enemies", he probably didn't mean kill them.
Mr. Hat - Insists on wearing a Stetson indoors & out in an area where baseball caps rule. Not from any remotely cowboy-esque state - native born!
Living and dreaming are two different things-but you can't do one without the other."

Developers have names for planners, as well!
I'm sure they do. Like "Sir", "Ma'am", "Master", etc.Originally posted by gkmo62u

I'm sorry. Is my bias showing?
Call me odd, but I really never had any pet names for developers.
I have someone I call @sshat. Short and to the point. I don't share it at work, though.
