Why did people call William T Sherman by his nicknames?
Use of nicknames was popular during the 19th century. As a boy and young man, William Tecumseh Sherman was typically called "Tecumseh" (his given name) and "Cump" (his nickname). During the Civil War, he was called "Uncle Billy" by his troops, although never to his face. Following the Civil War, it was rare for anyone other than immediate family and closest friends to call him anything other than General Sherman, as he was so highly respected by the majority of Americans including a substantial number of former Confederates.
