Really, he's an awesome fighter, and very exciting, but his name just screams "bland".
Appearences matter. People will never get exciting about seeing "Jim Miller" on the main card, but Jim Tthe Cannibal Miller or "Jim The Honey Badger Miller - maybe.
Unless you're blessed with a name like George St.Pierre or Alistair Overeem, getting a cool nickname is clearly a good marketing move imo.
Opinions vary.
I've never seen a honey badger in my life. Not once, not ever
He would get his nick name when Nate Diaz tags his face up.

Was just a random suggestion, not necessarily serious.
Creepy would be a great one since a certain other fighter won't embrace it. Creepy Jim Miller.
Jim Rat Miller
Jim "The Ginger Beard Man" Miller lol
Jim "The Dwarf" Miller
"Jersey" Jim Miller
I for one enjoy there finally being a guy that doesn't feel the need to rock some goofy-ass nickname. There's enough "nightmares" and "people's warriors". He can be himself.
This is a great idea! And maybe he should shave his head into a mohawk, and dye it funny colors! And talk 'mad shit' before all his fights!
Or maybe he should just be himself, and beat people up.
"Killer"
Nicknames should come about organically.
rkilla - Jim "The Ginger Beard Man" Miller lol
My friend told me that should be my nickname lol
tjmitch - Or maybe he should just be himself, and beat people up.THIS. Every athlete doesn't need a gimmick, because every fan doesn't like athletes who have gimmicks. There are plenty of fans who like fighters that just work hard and finish fights. They don't need them to have a signature celebration or hairstyle or nickname, they just appreciate watching them do what they do best.
Jersey Snore............puts motherfuckers to sleep! Ah, pretty week, first thing that came into my head.
Jim "Country Boy" Miller.
it will fit his walkout music.
His nickname should be "Miller"
