Well, that’s a nickname to embrace.

Since playing Nathan Maloney on the gay drama Queer As Folk, former Sons of Anarchy star Charlie Hunnam has had a busy career. Despite his success in Hollywood, Hunnam’s cheeky personality remains intact.

While promoting his film King Arthur: Legend of the Sword earlier this year, Hunnam let it all hang out. During an interview with On Demand Entertainment, the 37-year-old actor was asked to create a nickname for himself randomly.

“You take a unique physical characteristic to you, plus the first name of your dad,” the interviewer explained.

Hunnam quickly replied, “I’d be 12-inch cock Billy.”

He also addressed the rumors that he was giving up his ripped abs. “It’s a visual medium, so it’s quite handy to be able to be found attractive on screen,”Hunnam revealed, “but as an actor, you always want to be taken seriously and try and balance that out with a certain level of substance.”

“As long as you can do the best of both worlds, then maybe I’ll keep the abs for another couple of roles.”
