Since when people start calling Dirk, Dirk Diggler? Just curious... Is that his real nickname in NBA or it's an insult to Dirk?

Ever since Boogie Nights reached its prominence, about a year or two before Dirk really took off in the league. I've heard sportscasters call him Diggler ever since he started averaging 20 ppg.
It's not an insult. It's just sportscasters' half-hearted attempts to be witty.
