Another nickname: "Gaffy"---from college. The origin: "Generally well-liked, Poe was considered talented, if slightly odd by his peers. Once when he read a short story written specially for his friends, someone laughingly claimed that the hero's name, "Gaffy," was repeated too often. Before the others could object, Poe hurled his manuscript into the fire, thereby earning the longtime nickname "Gaffy" Poe. This nickname, though never relished, is said to have followed him all the way to West Point five years later." From: http://www.student.virginia.edu/~ravens/poe.html
