How did that originate?

when we get guys with nicknames they are some of the silliest EVER. First was Beanie. Now this one.....

“When Hopkins was an infant, the only brand of pacifier he wanted was “Nuk.” His mother nicknamed him Nuk because of that and the nickname has stayed with him to this day. It's pronounced “nuke.”

So he’s “named” after a pacifier.. Blahahaha

I was watching a replay of Texans vs. Saints and the announcer called him that about the 3rd play of the game.
I think I just never watch Texans games with the sound on. On Sundays, I'm either at the bar, at my parents' house in their four TV setup, or at the game. Not really around a lot of Texans watchers.
