Nicknames

[Chosen Enemy]

What's your nickname/pet name? Not in the boards, in real life. What your loved ones call you?

 

[MandaMeena]

I've had a few.
When I was younger, it was
Amanda-Poopy-Pants

Now it's Mandamoo, which I quite like 🙂

 

[Abbeycat]

Abs, Abbers. I don't have a lot. But even friends on here, call me Abs.

 

[Ms.Trick]

People mostly call me "Choco". Some also call Magnon, or Mini-Magnon, or Paki or Peruvian.

I have strange nicknames 😀


(And I love to call people "pinguin")

 

[zobothehobo]

Zobo
Zo
Zit
Zoo
Zoshine

And I think that's all of them. And I don't mind Zit. There's a story behind it and a reason why those people call me Zit It's a pet name...

 

[VisionGirl]

I don't have anything really weird. Most days I'm called "Steph", "mama" by my kids, "Mrs. Shumaker" by my students lol. My neice and nephew do call me "Aunt Seppy" because my oldest nephew couldn't say my name when he was little & it just caught on. My brother used to tease me by calling me "Puff 'N Stuph".

 

[BananaBuffy]

Savannah is a very nicknameable name in all honesty so I get called a lot of things. Plus other things that don't make sense so I will try to compile a shortened list.

Savvy
Sav
SavvyAnna
SavannahBanna
SavannahBanana
Chocolate
Buffy (This is one of my favourites, they all call me Buffy)
Donkey
JJ Feeney (don't ask)
Feeney
Peanut Bear (it started online with Jane but now my sis calls me it)
Noodle
Pickle Dilly
S
Buffannah
Buffesannah
Beverly
Doe

Okay, a lot of these don't make sense but I swear I do get called all of them, it's kind of funny. I love nicknames.

 

[This Year's Girl]

Blixten (which explains my previous username 🙂). It means the flash in swedish. 🙂 Also sometimes Miki and a lot of the times Mickis, but that usually by people who don't know me that well. I like Miki, but not Mickis.

 

[xfivebyfive]

Well the name everyone calls me is actually a nickname, Katie, cause my real name is Katherine.

Also Kat, Kate, Kathy(I HATE that one), KitKat, Katie-Megan, Katia, Katie-my-lady 😛

 

[Bexieh]

Well my full name is Rebecca, so I get the usual Bex, Becky, Becca, B, Beck etc. From my mam I often get BeeBop. From one of my friends I get called BLW. It's my initials (if you're using a nickname as the first name). He also calls me a bunch of insulting names, but apparently you insult the ones you love 😛

 

[xaphania]

Not really. There's not much you can do with Amy, except Ames, which a few people call me, but not many.

 

[MinwaraYana]

Wow, everyone has cute nicknames. 🙂 I get called pretty much only "Min". You know, every Thai people has nickname since they were born. It's tradition. Some are cut from names. Some are just random short thing. My other nicknames are what my friends and my sis made up for me. Molly, Anyan(from Anyanka, lol) and Mini(by BB people 😉).

 

[Chosen Enemy]

My name is Daphne, so my parents ALWAYS call me Duffy. And because Duffy sounds like Buffy, they sometimes call me Buffy by mistake.
My friends call me either by my whole name or Daph.

 

[LoveLoveLovix]

Everyone calls me Tabby, and UnderwaterLighthouse (because of my youtube channel).

The ones reserved for my friends are
Anya (yes, THAT Anya)
Stevie Rae (from House of Night)
Mittens
Tabs

Only people I really like (in a family or more-than-friends way) can call me Tabby Kat and not get punched.

Online, it's pretty much UnderwaterLighthouse, LoveLove, or LLL.

 

[MandaMeena]

This Year's Girl agrees: Is it a story behind your first nick?

Behind Amanda-Poopy-Pants? It was a nickname that my dad thought up and he kept using it because I hated it. Although, I can't imagine many 10 year-olds would!

 

[Misty]

My family calls me Shelly and some of my friends call me Misty.

 

[Wishing Oceans]

Just about everyone calls me Ori, and a good amount call me Oreo. There are a few others, but those are the main ones. 🙂 Oh, and I also get Riri on occasion.

[brinkster130]

Everyone knows me by my nickname...Katie, no one has called me by my full name Katherine in a long long time. There are few people that call me Kate, Brink, or Brinkster...which I don't mind at all. Just as long as people don't call me Kathy (which annoys me) I'm happy. 🙂

 

[Abby27]

My full name is Abigail and so I get:

Abby
Abs (which I really don't like)
Abbizzle (marching band in high school)
Buffy (when I play HvZ at school) 🙂
Drummer girl (I play drums for my campus ministry)

 

[InsaneMystic]

My other nicknames are what my friends and my sis made up for me. Molly, Anyan(from Anyanka, lol) and Mini(by BB people 😉).

Hey, I feel left out! I call you lots of things that start with Min and then go on from there in a long random string of syllables! 😛


As for myself, friends call me Ben nowadays (which rates as a nickname as it's unrelated to my official birth name). My sis and my cousins call me by two pretty common nicknames derived from my birth name (and no, still not telling that one to those of you who don't know it already 😛 I really don't like being called by that name by anyone else but my relatives).

(Min, of course, calls me lots of things starting with Ben and going on from there in a long random string of syllables.) 😀

In my school and uni days, pretty much everyone called me Ele (like the -phant, for "as wide as tall" reasons), pronounced in German kinda like AY-luh. While I never minded that one back then, and used it myself almost exclusively too, I don't go by it anymore and usually correct peeps to "please use Ben" nowadays.
