What does Borrachinha mean in Brazil?

“Borrachinha” stood for “ little rubber ” in Portuguese – a nickname given to him because of his older brother, who was dubbed “rubber man” due to his elasticity. But with its original meaning not translating well to English, he decided to use another word that means “rubber” in Portuguese.
