Celtics: Give Shaq a nickname

  • Prev
  • 1 of 11
  • Next

Make way for dunklings. Shaquille O'Neal is coming to the Celtics, bringing his oversized body and sizable personality to TD Garden. O'Neal's a certain Hall of Famer who figures to help the Celtics on the court next season. But last night O'Neal asked for some help from Celtics fans on his Twitter account, @THE_REAL_SHAQ, in coming up with a new Boston nickname. O'Neal's something of a nickname king: He's been known as The Diesel, Shaq Daddy, The Big Aristotle, and the Big Shaqtus (when he played in Phoenix), among other things. Submit your nickname suggestion for Shaq, and check out some of the best ideas so far in the rest of the gallery.
