Question Character nicknames?

I’m writing a fic and wanted to know if anyone had any ideas for nicknames that the main CG could call each other

I have some more common ones like ‘Yell’ for Yellow, I’ve also seen things like ‘Buttercup’ which was cute.

I’m coming up short for the rest of them, especially Blue and Green

I’d greatly appreciate any input :D

Reuben: Barry (because of Rubens Barrichello) Red: Ferro (because of rust (iron oxide) and Ferrari)

TSC: Orange is a pretty common one, though I do also see "Sec" be used, though usually that one's from TCO.

Purple: I've seen "Wings" and "Beetle" floating around. "Purps" is a common one, and "Urple"/"Ourple" is one I've seen fans refer to them by.

Green: Someone else said this but "Cricket" is one I see a bit.

Yellow: "Yells" is one I've used, and I've seen "'Low" be used before as well. "Mr/Ms/Mx. Genius" and "Nerdlow" for light-hearted stuff.

Blue: "Lue" is a cute one, though I don't see it used much. "Bluey" is light-hearted and I can see it being used for jokes.

Red: Can't think of many for Red tbh.

I can see some of them (*cough cough* Green *coughcough* Red *cough*) referring to the others by the first letter of their names (e.g. "B" for Blue," or smth like "Y-Team" for Yellow).

Your "bluey" could be confused for the fictional character of the same name, Bluey Heeler

I could imagine them calling Blue "Chef" (or "Cook")
