I like to nickname monsters. :D
Trojans; I call Trojans, Dolly, Reason being, I see them as a horse with a Marry Poppins outfit on and an umbrella instead of a sword.
Impostocube; Anly's Boyfiend.

Nothing that different...
Lumbers -> Ents, or "Dam trees!" when they spawn in arenas.
and defeating Wolvers makes me think of beating puppies, so I often think of them as puppy dogs.

@Abanoth
Your idea of a sneezer for a retrode is creative, but I guess they tilt their heads back and then forward quite similar to a sneeze. When I was new to Blast Network, I found it like a bunch of retrode beams. I've earned over 600 Krogmo Coins in total without boosters, though, so now instead of Blast Network blasts like retrode beams, retrode beams are like bomb blasts =P
That reminds me of the zombies: their "Breath" attack I always thought of as a "Bad Breath" attack, particularly in the cast of Freeze.

My manner to name enemies
Devillite: -Not so happy- worker
Pit Boss: Mug Guy
Yesmen: Yeah baby
Overtimer: -I don't want to work anymore 'cause I'm losing my fuse- guy
Massively huge enemy horde: OOOOHH CRAP RUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUN!

Butterflies = Silkwings
Bats = Greavers
Jelly God = Largest lichen colonies
Robots = Mechaknights
Basically just simpler, shorter names for most of the them.
