For whatever reason, people have started calling vorinclex vorinclocks and Loxodon Smiter goldilocks. I think the vorinclex one is stupid, but I use the goldilocks one often enough.

I also sometimes reffered to Conjurer's Closet as Venser's Closet, as it was in my Venser blink deck.
(Although I mostly used that phrase in Polish. And there would be even more Polish nicknames from me,
but I'm afraid they're won't be so good if I attempt to translate them. The ones above were, though )

Not sure if this really qualifies for this thread, but whenever any of my sons or I play this famous "target player sacrifices a creature" sorcery from Torment, we always simply say "Chainer's a dick."
I have a speech impedament and have a hard time saying bloodbraid elf so I called it stupid. It caught on I even heard it at a ptq from someone who I didn't know and noone of my friends knew either.
So in my playgroup, the word "Blood" will be replaced with "Butt" in the names of many cards. Some are funnier than others, "Butt Artist" is a favorite.
Lloyd of the Vord or just "Lloyd" for short. Ghost Dad is pretty common, but do other people use the nickname for both iterations of the Legend, or just the first? For us, it could be either one, though some may say "2.0" for the new one.
Funnily enough, despite not having a nickname for Vraskaherself, my friends and I have nicknames for each of her abilities. Her +1 is "keeping her eyes peeled", her -3 is "staring" (as in, "Vraska is going to stare at your general"), and the three assassin tokens she makes are Altair, Ezio, and Connor.
Generator Servant as Gen-Con, a mix of its name with "win condition". This came after seeing many games won with a Generator Servant>Fatty combo in M15 limited.
Snapcaster Mage as "Oh, My!". I always felt that his art looks like something out of Star Trek, so I just connected "Star Trek" and "Asian guy" to George Takei.
Hellrider as Run to the Hills. That song always popped in my head when casting him for some reason.
There are very few cards that get consistent nicknames for me. I usually just purposefully mispronounce the names in the weirdest way possible, since just about the only time I get to play paper Magic is late night games.
The one that seemed to get the most laughs was va-Porkin.
Not really a nickname but recently everytime I play Assemble the Legion (and every time I tick the counter on it up) I yell so the entire store can hear "LEGION... ASSEMBLE!!!!". Typically this is Duel Commander so nobody cares that I am loud and obnoxious.
