Origin of Jesse White's Nickname

[eggbeater]

Was watching an episode of Irish Corner featuring Jesse and Spangher and noticed Tadhg calling Jesse, JDub.

Anyone have any idea where his nickname came from?

JW, shorted to JDub would be the logical guess.

I believe his parents were Jehova's witness reggae fans.

:o Can't believe I missed that!

Thanks!!

He had some pretty slick moves that that would be good in the clubs, dubstep music maybe?

If Jesse White was a rabbit, then Collingwood must be the headlights....

The swans are a better side with Jesse White in there. He gives us a target (we usually miss, or ducks out of the way!) and a handy back up ruck.
Even with a return of 0 or 1 goals, we are better off with him than without him.

Cruel , but very funny !

I think that's what he called himself on his myspace page.. hahaha. As Mike says, it is a contraction of J.W.

Thought his nickname was Mocha?

When JW first came to the Swans was there not a facebook (or maybe MySpace back then) page with images of him being a DJ?

Used to be Mocha, but that was a family nicname (he told me, and the reason why). Much better he has a Swans name.

Anyone who watched the ressies game know why Byron was being called Beady?
