In high school,...Kiki is one of mine....one I like. <BR/>In high school, that was a different story. I was taller than EVERYONE except one guy. So, I was the Jolly Green Giant; Moose (ow!--and I was thin?!) Krinklepuffs (play on my maiden name). UGH!<BR/>All the guys that called me these things in HS tried to ask me out after high school....they were suddenly taller than I!!

Nicknames...<BR/><BR/>Yep, I've got a few.<BR/><BR/>A brother of a friend brought me through this progression:<BR/>Dab (my initials)<BR/>Dabid (my initials with a play on my name)<BR/>Dabs (back to his original)<BR/>Dahbs (as in a snooty pronunciation of Dabs, as in "Dahbs, fetch me a sandwich)<BR/><BR/>Through high school, I was known as Brou (pronounced "brew") a play on words using the first 4 letters of my last name and a favorite pasttime back then.<BR/><BR/>I had one friend call me "Bruised-so" which is a play on my last name (and probably my geekiness).<BR/><BR/>I have got a PLETHORA of nicknames for my girls. We have fun recounting them all sometimes.<BR/><BR/>KB, there were many name combinations that I discarded for my girls specifically because of some of the nicknames that could be made up about them. It got to the point that my wife kept saying: "I would never have thought of that. Where do you get such things?"<BR/><BR/>To which I had to reply: "I was a rotten kid so I know how the mean ones think..." :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24015530.post-34274688704684649932007-05-25T06:22:00.000-07:002007-05-25T06:22:00.000-07:00Growing up (and whenever I visit my relatives in N...Growing up (and whenever I visit my relatives in NY/NJ) I was called Bobby ... okay until I returned home from the Army.<BR/><BR/>I was tagged 'Egghead' and 'Eggy' after I got buzzed at the barbers - guess my head looked like an egg ... HATED that one ... stuck for years in Junior High.<BR/><BR/>In the early 80s I was tagged with 'Eddy' by a co-worker ... hated that one too.<BR/><BR/>Parents should take note of name-spins when they name their babies.<BR/><BR/>I guess, for know - if you need a nickname you can call me KB :)kc bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17440862813109808755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24015530.post-3888432501681896992007-05-25T06:18:00.000-07:002007-05-25T06:18:00.000-07:00Growing up, Melissa was a popular name thanks to t...Growing up, Melissa was a popular name thanks to the Allman Bros. My classrooms usually had a couple Melissa's, Michelle's and Michael's, poor teachers! So I got a new nickname every year. I love nicknames. I put more thought into my kid's nicknames than their real names. Maybe I'm weird, but nicknames make me feel cherished - even the "Pickles" or "Piglet" used making fun of my maiden name!Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16638784910676212171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24015530.post-53437030759645881622007-05-24T23:19:00.000-07:002007-05-24T23:19:00.000-07:00nice blognice blogAll Blog Spotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10642130105141272599noreply@blogger.com
