every Chinese person I've ever met uses some very white-sounding nickname. Do Americans who get nowag'd have to say things like "my name is Daniel but you can call me Ching?"

Yup they all take Chinese names. The surname will usually be something that sounds like the first syllable of their last name. For example, if a guy's name is Zack Wheeler, they'd pick something like "Wei Zhake" as his Chinese name.

Not really. Even if they do, everyone calls them by their American name.

The more common Western names have Chinese transliterations. "Samuel" is 大山, for example.
