What does moniker mean?

"Moniker" is a synonym for nickname or name. It's often used to refer to a name that's not someone's official or legal name, but rather a more informal or descriptive label.

Here are some examples:

* "The King of Pop" is Michael Jackson's moniker.

* "The Bard" is William Shakespeare's moniker.

* "The Iron Lady" is Margaret Thatcher's moniker.

While "moniker" can refer to a person's name, it can also be used for things:

* "The Big Apple" is New York City's moniker.

* "The Windy City" is Chicago's moniker.

The word "moniker" has a slightly more informal and playful feel than the word "name". It suggests that the name is distinctive, memorable, and perhaps even a bit of a legend.
