    My dad called me Pam Ella. I miss that one and him. My (ex) BIL - a real jokester - called me Pamela Soup. I also remember Pam the Lamb from when I was real little. My poor twin sister was Fat Pat the Water Rat.

    My baby sister would call me Boo and mom did too, from time to time. But MY DADDY, love and miss him so much (you can tell, can't ya??hmm I'm a daddy's girl) Called me RUTH HENRY, his favorite (only) uncle's name was Hank, short for Henry. Many is the time I appreciated being a girl. Middle name, well a cruel uncle told me once it was from the Donald O'Connor movie, Frances, the mule. hahahaha I never saw the movie but heard of it. after highschool, I needed a nic name for a job and I chose Henri. To this day some old friends still use it. Life is good.

    Blessings, Ruth

    I was called.....Ditter!! It started when I was learning to talk. My DM said I would walk around saying ditter over and over. I guess it was pretty funny to everyone and before long that was my nickname. I had outgrown it by the time I went to school except for my step Dads' family. They call me Ditter to this day! :lol:

    When I was really little my dad used to callme "oldie pastina spaghettio" and when I was older he called me the "admiral's daughter" My older sister called me "pymie". The only nickname I have now is "little mama", which is a joke between me and my 13 y/o son. I have always called him "little man" and now he is 5'10" at 13 and I am only 5'2". Since he is so much taller than me he has decided that I am his little mama.

    I bet no one else was called what I was. My whole family called me Tiger, until I was about 16 and my Mom made them stop. It still slips out once and a while from someone, but not too often.

    "Sis" by all of my brothers and my sister. My mom used my first and middle name and I hated it(Won't even tell what it is!). My grandma called me "Sweetie" and she never did learn how to spell my name. And sometimes they just called me "Picky" because I don't eat pepper of any kind. No black pepper, no white pepper, no hot peppers, or green, yellow, orange or red peppers! And there were a lot more things I wouldn't eat.

    My dad used to call me chicky when I was little, but when I grew in to a teenager, he used to call me string bean, as I was tall and gangly.
