What more people didn’t expect was that the name of football king Pele was actually a nickname.
On October 23, 1940, a boy named Edson Arantes do Nascimento was born in the town of Trescolasos, Brazil. He likes to play football and is a forward.

Yes, he is actually Pelé. According to the World Cup documentary broadcast by CCTV, Pele was actually the nickname of his classmates.
When I was young, my family called Pele nickname “Dico.” The origin of “Pele” is actually because of his amazing strength in childhood, those footballs made of old cloth and rotten socks, he actually used it to break the shop window! So those bosses call him “Pele”, which means “very annoying guy”!
This of course made him unhappy, and because this nickname was noisy with others. But a few years later, the name spread throughout the world and was often used in conjunction with greatness. Of course, after the 1970 World Cup, the British “Sunday Times” gave the name another way of writing the name in the form of a headline: “How does Pele spell it? GOD (God)!” When US President Ronald Reagan saw him, I am Reagan, you don’t have to introduce yourself, because we all know who you are.
It was an accident. The nickname is sometimes quite hurtful, but the accident is that some people turn the nickname given by others into a great synonym.
Therefore, we don’t really care too much about the nicknames taken by others. What we care about is our own efforts! Aiming at the goal, moving forward, you can also become a presence from the “very annoying guy”.
