A. Temple Tumbler–presented by the sarcastic Pharisees after Jesus “turned the tables” on them.
B. Winey Boy–a quickly devised name by some very drunken souls in Cana who suddenly found themselves slurping a burgundy made out of water
C. Jim Bay Luben–a proposal by the Southern Galilean Baptists, who were hoping it might promote Jesus to be more like his cousin, John
D. Carpo the Carpenter–a business-package idea by the Nazareth Chamber of Commerce
E. Bastard–a never-dying rumor by old, disgruntled Nazarenes who were “month-counters” for Mother Mary.
