Why do somali guys get nicknamed for abdi?

Who says it's a nickname. That's their actual names.

I hope they stop that cycle with kids tho. I've also never met a sane Somali guy named Mohamed, they're always addicts, convicts or straight up mental. I avoid Abdis and Mohameds like the plague.

Because 9/10 they're correct. Abdi and Mohamed are the number 1 and 2 most common names.
 
My birth name was Abdi... it's what my parents chose for me.

As soon as I turned 18 I legally changed it.

Even now I still get people saying to me "wow I've never come across a Somali named Theodore"..

1 of Allahs 99 names must be added to Abdi, nobody is just called abdi.

What is worse is that calling oneself Abdi is a big L.

Abdi in Arabic means "my slave".

So when you ask someone to call you "Abdi", you are asking them to call you their slave.

It's just short for Abdullah in a way. "My slave" meaning Allah sees you as such.
