"Yo Salad Head!"
Classic Bits
Titans Nickname Guide[courtesy of Titans Sourcebook]
There are certain themes and situations that pop up in Titans' stories with regular consistency. Some of them are variations of things found in other comic titles, but some are uniquely "Titan-ic."
"Yo, Salad Head!"
Hang around with any bunch of young people long enough, and they inevitably start giving each other nicknames. The Titans are no exception. Bear in mind that not all of our young heroes used nicknames, and some only used them for certain fellow members. The format presented features the nicknamed hero, the nicknames themselves, and who used the nickname, if applicable.

Kid Flash is called "Twinkle Toes" and "Flasheroo" by Speedy, Aqualad and Robin.
Aqualad is called "Gill-Head" by everyone.
