Noon, Pookie, Moo and other Thai names come from parents, relatives and friends in early childhood; they use nicknames to stop the evil spirits knowing their real names, keeping them safe.
As for the other names, well yeah.... This Is Thailand..... it's probably marketing!

I think it's just a cultural thing, they probably think our nicknames are just as fucked up.

rev, I am surprised you posted this subject. Thai language and culture is very different from the west so it would be unusual for a Thai to have western nicknames - swinecanine posted a good summary of some common ones.
Rat of course would not mean the same as what we call a rat just as Porn like Porn laundry does not mean you can get a short time if you go to that laundry.
