"Bah"
Among family, friends and those who knew him in his high school and college playing days, John is known almost exclusively as "Bah" Harrington. He earned the nickname from his older brother who was barely a year old when John was born. The brother couldn't phonate the word baby and instead referred to his new sibling as "bah." The name stuck. The rest of his siblings have nicknames, including "TP" and the lovely "Muggs."
