Nicknames

Posting "MoMa" made me wonder...(and I think we posted this awhile ago), do you have a nickname or nicknames for people?

Re: Nicknames

  • College (and now b/c i work with a college friend) call me my sorority Nickname which is Sassy (for my personality) or Sass (my nickname has a nickname?)

    Ash

    My SIL (good one..my brother's wife) calls me Smash

    Seventh Anniversary 5000 Comments 500 Love Its Name Dropper

    Most people just call me Xan, short for Xandrea.

    My Dad calls me KK...my Mom's middle name is Kay so I don't know if it stems for that or what...but he has just always called me KK and even writes it in cards and stuff.

    Jason and I call each other Bitty.

    My best guy friend and I call each other Pumpkin and Mato. 

    My baby brother, who is now 13 and 6ft 1, calls me Sissy Xan.  He's always called me Sissy Xan (or sometimes just Sissy) even though he calls all of our other siblings by their first names only.  (This is still one of the sweetest things to me and totally melts my heart every time he says it)

  • Allie is my nickname obviously. My full name is Alexandra. My sisters call me squirt or bug and sometimes Allie-bug. (Allie Cat comes from my mom wanting to name me Alexandra Catherine, which she didn't)

    Whiskey has a weird nickname though (Kicker), and I am not sure why we started calling her this. 

    I sometime call DH Nico instead of Nick.

  • I honestly don't have many...People mostly just call me Michelle.

    Ashley calls me chelley

    My sister calls me Mitch because she says it rhymes with *** and could call me that in front of my mother when we were younger.

    My grandmother (r.i.p) used to call me Bum when I was little.  I got that nickname because I hated clothing when I was a toddler.  I would go into the crib totally clothed and always woke up butt naked.

  • I call my niece Lucy or Luc (loos). (Her name is Lily...well, her name is Elizabeth, but everyone else calls her Lily).

    I call my nephew Joe.  (His name is Jack, but everyone else calls him Jet.)

    I call my other nephew Nater.  (His name is Nate, short for Nathaniel.)

    I never really had a nickname growing up.  At one point my dad thought it would be fun to give me and my sister's nicknames.  He decided my nickname would be "Pip."  That lasted about a day.

  • My niece/nephew like to yell, "BROOKIE THE COOKIE!!!"

    A few friends call me Brooke "Maiden Name" all the time.

    DH and I say "hun" usually or "babe" in a funny voice.

  • From Zach: Chels, sweetie/sweetheart, Lou (my middle name is Louise)

    From my parents: Little one (dad), Beanie (mom - my aunt used to call me jelly bean, and it took off from there)

    From a much loved co-worker: b!tch t!ts (no idea why, but it's hilarious)

    We call Squirt (turtle) Goob, since the dictionary  says a goober is a peanut, and he's pretty small. Also dude, little guy, fearless, and (dad created this one) the 'handi-capped kid', because he sounds like he's got a gimp when he walks due to his shell banging on the ground.

    Lola (cat): Princess, Lola Bean, fluffy one, little sh!t, and girly-q.

    I tend to call Zach an array, ranging from Sunshine, love, geek squad (plays WoW and built his own computer to do so), my rocket scientist (major is Aeronautical Engineering), babe, hon, Ty (middle name is Tyler).

     

    I think that's it.

    Mine isn't very exciting.  My real name is Nicole, but everyone calls me Niki.  My grandma sometimes calls me Nickle.

    Our last name is Sloan, so I call Chris Sloany.
