If you turned pro what would be your nickname and walk on song
My nickname would be Rotty or Sharpy walk on song

Greg 'The Rebel' Billington
Ideally walk-on would be either 'Voodoo People' by The Prodigy or 'Shipping up to Boston' by Dropkick Murphys but both are taken so would go with something like:
The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright
Either way, I have plenty of time to decide as I dont plan on going pro for at least another erm..... say 50 years or so.

Must be an overseas thing.
We really don't do nicknames here in the states.
Sure, we have a few pro's with nicknames but they didn't get them until they traveled to the UK.

I think they have seen how successful nicknames are in other sports like Wrestling, just something else to add to the razzamatazz along with the walk-on girls, dancers and ticker tape when the winner is announced, makes the event more fun I guess.

I think as a few Pros got nicknames then it has become almost a requirement to have one, but I think there is still a few pros who dont have them.
Usually a nickname is what someone else would make up for you though, but maybe mine could be "The Collector" lol
Song would be:

Rotty

My Nickname is Big gun and my Walk on music is AC/DC Big Gun but I love offspring too Rebel and I even Tweeted Offspring and asked Noodles what he thought I should come out to as I wanted to use an Offspring track and he suggested Session as it starts of fast & loud but it has too much swearing I also considered Neocon from the album Splinter as I love that but if I'm on last we will never lose to you might be a bit late if we have lost so settled for the AC/DC track Big Gun as the words are quite apt 'Big gun he'll kick the hell outta you'. Not a pro though only a County player.

Well up until this year, I was going with. 'Firestarter' with the Prodigy song.
But this season we got another Simon in the pub team, and as my name is also Simon, I Changed my Tag to 'Simples' after the famous slogan from the Meerkats from the adverts.
Since then it's escalated, now someone in the league is intent on creating a meerkat throwing a dart to make print for dart shirt, So...
Now, not that I'll ever make pro, but it I did it would have to be.
Nickname: 'Simples' Song: 'Tetris' (Techno remix) <which is from a russian folk song korobushka originally>
This version to be exact (custom edited tho):
