City nicknames
Wikipedia does not include content just because "everybody knows" it — there are many, many examples where what "everybody" knows is actually wrong, so as far as Wikipedia is concerned nobody "knows" anything until reliable source coverage tells us what they do or don't know. To include "Loyalist City" as a nickname for Saint John, we would need to see media coverage (newspaper articles, books, etc.) about Loyalist City as a nickname for Saint John — and not even just stray examples of people using it in the title of a book or the name of a business, but actual content about it (such as a newspaper article, or some content in a history book) that analyzes the nickname and explains where it came from. For the record, I've also removed the prior "Fundy City" nickname, because it wasn't referenced either — but if you want to readd "Loyalist City", then please familiarize yourself with what constitutes a reliable source for Wikipedia content and find some actual reliable sources.
