What were the crew nicknames in Star Trek?

It would depend upon which series you look at. Really, the only nicknames that the crewmembers ever get (in the three series I have seen: tos, tng, and enterprise...) are simply shortened version of the person's name. Such as Spock instead of Mr. Spock...or Chekov instead of Pavel Chekov. Or Trip instead of Charles Tucker the Third. (Trip being short for Triple).

Jeff Hunter's career decisions were made by his wife who turned down his chance at the second pilot, and he was replaced by the Canadian actor William Shatner. Majel Barett, wife of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry was bumped as the unemotional "Number One" by Spock, but she returned as Nurse Chapel who was in love with Spock, and as the voice of the Enterprise computer. As Yeoman Rand, actress Grace Lee Whitney dropped out after eleven episodes under the official story that she was pregnant. Really, she had become an alcoholic nymphomaniac, and it took many years to clean herself up. Walter Koenig did not join the Star Trek cast until the second season because Roddenberry wanted a long-haired Davey Jones type to increase younger viewership. It was originally intended that he be British, but Russia complained that they were not represented in the multi-national Star Trek crew, so Koenig's character became Ensign Chekov. George Takei missed a few episodes of the first season while filming the movie The Green Berets with John Wayne. Kirk's tombstone in the second pilot reads James R. Kirk.
