Hog - "Whether we wanted it or not, we’ve stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let’s get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta’aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He’s well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold. "

Well that did’t take long, lol. Haters gonna hate I guess.
Hanzo - Handglob
It’s in mild relation to old Genji Memes. Basically just ironically taking his name and devolving it into almost any word that begins with a G. I actually call him an assortment of things, such as: Gengu, Gorbonju, Gecko, Gengi, and of course, Gregory,

When it comes to Doomfist, for mad support players it can range from “doom” to “black guy” to full on racial slurs.

Honestly I just call most of them by their names
Tho I shorten a lot of the names too, like Bap, Brig, Rein, Soldier, Sym, Torb, Widow and Zen
Though I personally call Wrecking Ball Hammond, or Ball, and I still call Cass McCree. I don’t do it cause I don’t like the new name, I just call him McCree out of habit… I still like the name McCree better tho
