A nickname evolves from Wikipedia:
Mike Trout has been called Prince Fish, God’s Gift, and King Fish 2.0 in reference to the Angels’ first King Fish, Tim Salmon. But one day a prankster added a new nickname on his Wikipedia page: The Millville Meteor.
“I found out it was on a Wikipedia page,” Trout explained to the Long Beach Press-Telegram in 2014. “I think someone added it and just put the name out there and people ran with it.”
It remains on his Wikipedia page to this day.
