What's your least favorite nickname for Albuquerque?

There will probably eventually be a poll associated with this question, but I need a survey of Albuquerque nicknames to put in there.

I have, so far:

Burque
ABQ
The Q
The Duke City

Yes, yes, I know you can't pick just one, but please, if they're in common usage, contribute some of your own. Would like more options, not "I vote for ...." posts; you'll have the opportunity to do that when the poll comes out.

What about "the 505"? I hear people say this about any place in the country-- I live in "the ___insert local area code here."
