Yo Brazillians,

I want to know how you (or they) choose a single name for a player.

example:
Edson Arantes de Nascimento ----> becomes Pele.

Artur Antunez Coimbra ---> becomes Zico.

and countless others.

Is this names given as nicknames in childhood or once they become famous they resort to a single name which is easier to pronounce for everybody.

Yes, those are names given in their childhoods.
