Nicknames

The other night at work we had a conversation about nicknames and it got me thinking. Nicknames are so interesting. I actually really LOVE nicknames, so I thought I'd share a few with you:

Me: Nance, Nunerd, Nune, Fancy Pants, Nan-steeee, Nances with Wolves, Lily of France or LOF, N. Braithwaite RN - BSN, NLB, Queen of the Buttheads

Jason: Jay, Jace, J-Dogg, J-diggity-dogg, hun, King of the Buttheads

Alex: Buddy, Bud, Butthead #1

Rachel: Rach, Rachie, Roo, Butthead #2

Cole: Coleman, Colio, Colie old St. Nicholas (this one is only in my head and I'm not sure why it keeps popping in there), fella, little man, chunk-a-monk

I remember when my sister Kate and I were little we wanted to come up with nicknames. We came up with Katred for her (rhymes with hatred but she didn't care), Nunerd for me, and Dunos my Spanish Lover (later shortened to just Dunos) for my little brother Dan. For some reason we didn't think of one for anyone else in our family - weird.

Anyhoskie, I thought it would be fun for ya'lls to tell me what your nicknames are. Come on, don't be a pp (party pooper).

Nice, my family loves nicknames too. We never call anyone by their real name. It drives my mom crazy.

Are you sure it was Val Kilmer? I don't recall being friends with him. I think you're thinking of Val Palmer? Speaking of nicknames, why did we call him wax tooth?

My nick's are Jess Jessie poo, Jessie fart head, Jessie barf head, J doggie dog, J dog, beauty queen, glamour girl. The list goes on and on!
