Little Boy by bf's father.

TootieAnn by a favorite uncle!

Idy. When I was a baby, my uncle picked me up out of the crib, and said, "Hidy Idy!"

CheeChee or Kid. I once asked if anybody knew what my name really was, Yeah, Kid CheeChee. Even the grands and greats call me CheeChee.

My dad called me Shmo (don't know where that came from) My name is Susanne. My husbands grandson calls me shazam because he couldn't pronounce Susanne.

My dad called me "Judy Bug"... and still does occassionally. My first name is Judy.

My Stepfather was the only one to hang a nick-name on me it was DawnieBird because I'm hyper-active

"Twinnie" because I have an identical twin sister.

I was called Allybutton by my siblings. I don't know why.

Nicknames are a big part of American life, arent they? I don't think we have that so much in other places- I certainly don't. Everyone calls me by my name- my sister sometimes replaces the last letter with a Y but that is the closest I ever got to a nickname. Where I come from nicknames are generally associated with bullying and "name calling". Some of yours are cute though!

My father called me Genevieve (my first name is Jennifer), my younger sister called me Sissy or Kelpy because she couldn't say Kelly.

My brother is only 15 months older than me and they tried to get him to call me sister. He pronounced it "Sear." Some members of my family have called me that ever since.

Also, one great uncle gave every new member of the family (by birth or marriage) a nickname and he never called them by anything but their nickname. Mine was Frauline.

Oh... and when I was little (and sometimes still) my mother called me Grace because I was anything but graceful. (She also use to tell me that if I didn't stop what I was doing, I was going to skin my ignorance. LOL!)

My "uncle" used to call me 'Low Pockets" because my mom used to roll my pant legs up cuz my legs were so short and obviously my pockets rode a little lower than they should have. lol
thanks for the memory!

My father called me sparrow because I was so tiny and had legs like a bird. 72 years old and still have the legs.

I was called bird legs by my sister when I was young. It didn't stick.

My cousin Jack named me Mia when we were little, he was 9 months older then me, it stuck. His name wasn't Jack either.
Boys at school called me Long Tall Sally and my husbands friends called me Red some still do, although now I'm silver. My husband calls me Mia too. My mom and dad called me Marian.

I was called Peachy or Peaches as I was super pale and always had pink cheeks :) by everyone in my family. Mom who is 91 still calls me that.

My given name is Echo. My dad started calling me Bunny when I was 3 weeks old and 60 years later I am still called Bunny. Only my drivers license says Echo.

Had an uncle who used to call me "muscles". I was very tiny and petite and he would tease me about having muscles....I didn't really. lol. My brother couldn't say my name so instead of Diane he would say Dee Dee. Still does.

Being the only girl of six kids. I can hear my dad calling me "SIS" or "MAGGIE" RIP daddy,I love and miss you!!!!

If it would make you feel better I will call you Stick. :)
Hi Stick, nice to meet you :)

I was my Dad's Pumpkin.
My brothers and sister's called me Retta.
My nieces and nephews call me Aunt Retta.

Patti Lee by my parents and grandparents (unless I was in trouble.... LOL then it was Patricia Lee (my given name). My brother called me Nee Nee and it gradually became just Lee..... and still is

"sissy" when young and "sis" when older... cousin could not say Sharon .. so said Butch's (brother) sis... so it became sissy and then sis... So my family always calls me Sis. My husbands family always call me Sharon as does my husband!

We all Call you Ditter too!!!

My German Grandmother always called me "Der Maunda" and my Uncle Cliff called me Sissy. My brother would call me whatever goofy name the Three Stooges used that day on TV.

We hated it, but Uncle called us "peanut".

Forgot to say my mother called me a "big calf" whenever I cried. This was ridicule so I learned not to cry. (hard to do as a child, and sometimes hard to do as an adult)

Heres mine...hope your ready.
Because I am short (I'm 5 foot now) I used to be called shorty by this old lady that lived next to us. She was the only one that called me that. Grandma called me Dee Dee. My other grandma called me Dee Dee too unless she thought I was my aunt Orena and she would call me Orena Kay. (that was only after she got dementia). I called my Grandpa Curly, because he had curly hair like that guy on the Three Stooges and I couldnt say grandpa. My real dad called me Abbie Gail. To this day I like that name Abbie. My sisters name was Farmer John HAHAHA and that was because she was SO FLIPPIN skinny that her clothes just hung on her (took her to have 6 boys to put on any weight) and she was called Poached Eggs because she didn't hardly grow any boobs and that took 6 babies to get some. LOL.
When I was in elementary and junior high school, there was one boy named Sam to this day I can remember his name and even what he looked like...hope he ended up being a preacher or something for how mean he was to me, but he called me either Dead Eye or Evil Eye depended on his mood. (I am visually handicapped and my right eye is paralyzed and blind)and I can remember him making me cry all the time and it didnt help that I was so short. I wore a size 6 X pants in the 6th grade!!! And that is small.
I called my oldest daughter Synder Sue (her name is Synthya Marie), I call my middle daughter Tinner Sue or just T and her name is Tina Ann, so where I came up with the Sue part, I haven't a clue. Now for my youngest daughter, her name is Mistydawn. She has no middle name. But I had always called her "Misfit" and in a good way and she knew it. When she was little, people would ask her what her name was and she would either say "Misfit or Strawberry Shortcake" Well anyways, when she was about 16 or so, I quit calling her Misfit and she asked me why I never called her that anymore and I told her that I thought she was too old for me to be calling her that and she said..."NO IM NOT MOM you can call me Misfit ANYTIME YOU WANT TO." So on occasion I will call her that just to make her "feel extra special". I call my husband either Charles or Love, or Babe but I never have to worry about him being late for dinner. And he calls me Babe all the time...sometimes I don't think he even remembers my name. LOL.

I was called juinor because I was named after my mother Dorothy I hated it. also toothpick or clothespin cause I was skinney.My first nephew couldn't say Dorothy. I was then DeeDee now Dee, to old for DeeDee except for family.

Hey, what is wrong with Janet LOL

:lol: :lol: :lol:

My Dad called me Sissy, my Mom called my by my name and added my middle name when she was mad or I was in trouble. My brothers call me Sis except for my middle brother who calls me Sharon Ann <my name> but he puts it together as one word. I have a cousin that calls me Sharon Jean, don't have a clue where that came from. I have four G'Kids and they all have nick names Darrek is Dare.. Alexander is Alley, Payton is Pay Pay, and Laney is Lane.. and could'nt tell you where this got started but everyone calls Laney either Laney Lou or Lou Lou.

God created you and He made you beautiful, inside and out. You are loved and appreciated by everyone on this board. If they could just SEE YOU NOW!

"Bon-Bon" here...
(My name is Bonnie.)

My dad has called me Boo all my life. I call him Papaya.

My brother called me Runny (cause he knew I hated it). My little sister called me Nay Nay because she couldn't pronounce Renee. I wish my Dad had a nickname for me. But our relationship was always more formal than that :-( I tell all children to call me Nay Nay, it's easier to say and it makes me happy.

My brother always called me Nooks & many times still does. My dad introduced me as his little girl, after he quit calling me that I missed it.

This was so sweet. I was called Barbwire or Red (I had redish blond hair, now those were fighting words. Mom called Barbie, my name is Barbara. Everyone calls me Barb today.

My nickname was Sugar from the time I was born until I got married. Was even called that in school ( small town). The story is that my Mom said she is as sweet as sugar when I was born. My husband did not like calling me that because he knew a girl with a not so good reputation, that also had that nickname...so he calls me Honey...go figure. After 47 years of marriage, I had almost forgot.

My Grandpa called me, button nose and my sibilings Ms. Priss.
