Larakin

This name was a nickname given to me a long time ago while I was a Mountain bike Guide in Park City. One of the patrollers, whos real name I cant remember but we all called him Kiwi, called me that. It has stuck ever since. I never really knew what it meant, I knew it was some sort of Austrailian/New Zealand slang given that is where he was from.

Well I finally found a definition in an Austrailian slang dictionary:

Larakin: Definition: Funny character. Good Laugh. Example: "He's a real larakin"

I always thought it meant something like "crazy kid" "rascal" or "punk" or something like that. I like this definition better.
