Help[Opinions] Re: unusual nicknames
in reply to a message by mirfak
I don't think they're really bad, but my boyfriend's brother goes by Igger / Igg and his sister is Bird / Birdop. Nobody really seems to remember why.
My brother calls his daughter Puddin' Cakers (I can't remember ever hearing him call her by her actual name), but since she's only 9 months old, I wouldn't call it strange.
My dad used to call me SarahPoo, SarahPie, or Miss Kitty (I really liked cats).
I sometimes call my best friend Dumpling, and she refers to me as Chicken (to make us chicken & dumplings - she was Dumpling before I was Chicken).
When we were little, my brother and I used to jokingly call our dad Sparky, in reference to the time he was struck by lightning.
For a long time, I called my grandmother Gummi, and nobody ever figured that one out.
My cousin is called Noodles - a lot more in the past than she is now. I'm not entirely sure why, but I think there was a story behind it.
None of these people go by those names full-time, and they were mostly childhood nicknames, just like your son being called Pickle.
