My friend calls them "Merfolk", since they can't possibly all be men.

Pimp Mastah, thanks to one of those "What's your Pimp Name?" generators years ago.

And my personal favorite, via Jorge...

I've never, ever nick-named a CV character before in all the years I've played the games. In fact the thought of nick-naming a character has never even entered my mind. My bro on the other hand (knowing his sense of humor being similar to Douglas Adams and a few others) would have chimed in, in the most unpredictable times of my play throughs, and make a funny comment about said CV characters. Then he'd promptly give them a nick-name worth their time.

Well, not CV-related, but my friend call them "Jackie Chan":

Nearly half of the CV genre bears its name and you're telling us it's not CV related?

And I can't exactly see what that has in common with Jackie Chan...

They jump and kick like kung fu masters while being invincible lol
Only after some moves they become yellow and then vulnerable.

Oh, THAT. I'd somehow missed the yellow blur. I thought you were referring to the space pirate...

It's not Castlevania, but many years ago me and my friend used to play megaman a lot and he used to call those guys "mini-nazis" 

[shelverton.]

First time my friend encountered a fleaman in Castlevania 1 he was hit multiple times by it and killed, and after that he referred to it as "that clingy f***ing fetus". Ever since that I think about them as "clingy fetus".

I always thought it would be funny if Mudman was an actual surname, pronounced the same way you would pronounce Zimmerman, Freeman, etc. And the mudmen could have first names, too, like Steve. Steve Mudman. Oh no, I murdered Steve Mudman!!

Kicker Skeleton = Kamen Rider 1

But it IS the space pirates. While they are colored like in this screen they are invincible.

They had Mudwomen in Castlevania X68000. I guess the only nick-name you could call them is 'Mud's Women'.

Kicker Skeleton = Kamen Rider 1

Yeah raida kick!!!

After judgement I called sypha Busty for awhile and Shanoa Rukia because of Michelle Ruff and bleach.

Simon Conan

Julius kenpachi same reason as Shanoa. It was like once.

Death in RoB you freaking ninja...

That red tentacle monster in the first forest in OoE that thing was doing tentacle action to Shanoa if it grabbed her. It's a freaking tentacle monster and I would be disappointed if there was no hentai of what I'm speaking of !!!

Don't even get me started on this:
Character | Nickname | Reasoning (if I have one)
Merman | Manfish | One day I came across the merman and pretended to know what it was calling it 'manfish' even since then I still call them manfish
Dario Bossi | Wolverine | He reminds me of the Wolverine for some reason, I have no clue why.
Great Armor | Fake Boss | When I first saw it it looked like a boss
Fleaman | Morgan Fleaman | Little joke that I found on the internet
Malachi | Winged man-Kraken | I honestly can't explain this one
Mini Devil and Imp | Annoying little ****| It's true
Buer (AoS only) | Octolion | Once again can't really explain this
Giant Ghost | Raging Skull | When I saw it in AoS I immediately thought of this
Death mask | Crow Face | In PoR it looked like a face with crow wings
Manticore | Dave | I don't even know
I have many more this is just the start of my list.
