One time, I got a job at a large, chain electronics store as a warehouse associate. They already had a guy there named Tim, but they immediately decided that they liked me more than him, and renamed that Tim (that worked there for 2 years) to "Other Tim."

My cousin dated two guys named Dewey (back to back, too). When she introduced the second one to us, we called him Dewey Twoey

Worked at a place with a guy named Todd. Then we got another Todd who was less than bright. He got nicknamed Re-Todd.

Actually a badass nickname though, I would have leaned into that. But Other Tim doesn't seem cool enough for that
