Little Breeze is my nickname at work. My boss has been called Breeze since his teenage years. He started calling me Little Breeze, then everyone else did, and it stuck.

The only nickname I ever had was BigD. From my softball days, I was always cleanup batter.

Yup, when I was a kid I got the nickname Jellybean cause I was so small and later it was Jewel cause of my name being Julie. I hate nicknames.

Oh, Zmom, my grandfather always called my grandmother (mother's side), 'Bug.' It was said with much affection, and I always loved it! I love the nic Jellybean, too, LL! So cute!! As a little one, I was called 'Stinkerpot.' No, I didn't stink. (Just an affectionate term, coined by a neighbor who caught me streaking outside one too many times when I tried to avoid my baths.) My dd calls me 'Momma Beayr'--and spells it that weird way, too--to help accentuate the extra syllable she uses to pronounce the word. My dh calls me 'Gracie' (after Gracie Allen . . . no smart alec comments, please)! Even though I have tried to train him to say 'Dalita,' he uses Gracie more! I really don't mind any nic cuz I hate my first name. (A lot of unfortunate words rhyme with 'Dale,' My sister made up this poem about me and delighted in reciting it: "Dale the Whale sat in a pail of stale ale." Then the boys in 6th grade chorus loved to revise the words to the army song, "Over Hill, Over Dale" to a more lurid version. We ALWAYS sang that song in practices for some reason, and the teacher never seemed to hear, for some reason. UGH! Course I never said a word, just blushed like crazy. Oh, the pain!!)

My family (immediate and extended) have always called me Charlie while growing up. Over time some have taken to calling me Char (either pronounced shar or char, as in charcoal), but there are still a few family members who continue to call me Charlie. At a former job one co-worker started calling me Charlene the Bean (since I'm so short), then Beanie and then everyone else started using it. My husband calls me Princess.

I've gone my whole life without a single nickname, but my colleagues have finally come up with "Jimmer" (ironically! LOL) because that is what my 3 initials sound like ~ JMR

Never had a long term nickname. Although when I was baby/toddler, my grandmother called me "peanut" and "sweetie pie". Thinking about that totally makes me miss her.

about yesterday's question, where i live we have so many stars and shooting stars that they have a star-gazing convention 2 miles from my home. i can't wait to go this summer. i am about 45 miles as the crow flies from lake shasta where mamie used to go. only here in the mountains, because it's even darker, we see more stars. august at lake almanor (about 75 miles east of where my north house is) they have meteor showers and you can sometimes see 5 or 6 shooting stars in a minute! some take 3 full seconds to pass by with their orange flaming tails...their biggest time is august. for today's question: "'caela" ("kayla") from my family, "katie" from a 4th grade teacher who refused to try and pronounce michaela, and "mike" in high school. (my boyfriend was named stacy and no one believed us when we'd be introduced and i'd try and tell them i was 'mike' and he was 'stacy'!) when i went to EMT school, the other students called me "dr. mike" because i had the entire medical emergency book memorized. a year or two later, they had that doctor quinn show, where her name was michaela and the townspeople called her 'doctor mike'. oh, and a couple of guys in high school called me 'julie' due to an old drunk and myself getting into an argument over whether 'julie' could be a name all on its own or could only be a nickname for 'julia'. he insisted it was only a nickname for 'julia', and a couple of guys to this day would call me 'julie' if i ran into them...which i may one day, as i attended my last 2 years of high school in redding and am now back in the area.
