What to call my gay friend?

Need help from the creative folks here at BWW...

A circle of friends and I have nick names for each other. My one friend just came out of the closet and said to change his nickname to "homo." But I want to be more creative that that...

What should his new nickname be? I don't want to use anything common and am having trouble thinking of something new...

Whatcha' think?

For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

I've taken to calling the gay friends I like most "Lady Day".

Is he a "Nomi" or a "Crystal"?

Like in SHOWGIRLS? Is his personality more of a Nomi (ambitious, naive, tough, adventurous) or a Crystal (Commanding, vicious, diva, cool). If you haven't seen SHOWGIRLS, youre kinda screwed, tho.

Oh...I like Nomi...a lot. But only if your friend can do the 'dolphin'.

I think "Hey Sexy" would be most appreciated--if you're secure yourself enough to pull it off.
