I am just thinking of another nickname for the A380..
Why not the "albatross" ?
It reminds me of some piece of poetry learned at shool...and the A380 fits like a glove to Baudelaire's description of this big bird...
For the french-litterates who want to refresh their memories, let me add this link

Whalejet. The Blue whale is gracefull, like the A380, though it will probably be know as a super-jumbo

It is already recognized almost worldwide as the whalejet (even heard that in the news, the reporter was like :" so here we have the A380 Whale jet")

so my vote is whale jet, even iF i will keep calling him A380
