From what I have read about Washington he was not the type people joked with and so I don't think anyone ever called him by a nickname. He was very strict, didn't shake hands(felt his hands were too big), is reported to not have said a word during the writing of the constitution, went to bed every night at 9PM no matter what was going on at Mt. Vernon, didn't tell jokes, and refused to dance even though he was reported a good dancer. This type of person is not a person who has a nickname ( not at least to their face).

Answer

His nickname was 'Father of his Nation'. More epithet than nickname perhaps.
