Well, i think it is because when the maya or the wizards came to middle earth, they all had different colors of clothes...

ether that or it was a nick name because he looked very old... but, i think it's a pretty suave nick name... nah, just joking. but, it's still a good nick name....

But to my mind, thoough i am native here
and to the manner born, it is custom
more honour'd in the breach than the observance.
