. Agreed. Plenty of mobsters have multiple nicknames. For example before Gotti became known as the Dapper/Teflon Don he was simply known as “Johnny Boy”




Nobody and i mean nobody ever called Gotti the dapper or teflon don except the media. He was called john or johnny. He was called johnny boy by some when he was young.

He was probably called Johnny Boy when he was older too. Maybe not to his face but when they were referring to him on conversation. I've got an 86 year old uncle that we still refer to as "K Boy". I don't walk up to him and say "what's going on K Boy, how ya doing", but when I talk to family members and friends I'll say "Hey how is K Boy doing, what's he up to?". You're partially right in that only the media wrote about the TeflonDon and the Dapper Don monikers. That was just to sell newspapers IMO

Agreed. He was still referred to Johnny Boy. Also I never said that any mobsters refers to him as The Teflon Don. I was talking about the media who referred to him as that
