Una palabra común e informal es “guy”. (Rima con “buy”). Es más común que “man” a mi ver. También se dice “dude” en California, pero no lo usamos con ese significado tanto como “guy.” Pero si alguien quiere bromarse de un californiano, casi seguro que dirá “dude”.

Buddy, bud, dude, guy, sir, friend, mister, man, bro. There is not one widely used term.
Which one of these you use depends on your age, what part of the country you are in & how well you know the person.
