Do you have nick names for your kids?

[Mummy2Kobi&Hailee]

do you have nicknames for your children?

I do.

Kobi = Fred (no idea why but has been Fred since birth :laughing:)
Hailee = China Doll ( she was only 46cm at birth and seriously looked like a china doll :laughing:)

If i call Kobi and he doesn't answer after a few calls i will call out Fred and 99.9% of the time he will answer me but if someone else calls him Fred he ignores them.

Libby = Libby Lou

[SweetSerenity]

I call DS - Petey and Darling :)

DF calls DS - Buggalugs lol :laughing: It's quite cute...

[~Temet Nosce~]

Ds (Kaine) is often known as Spewsie, because he chucks so much and our catchphrase for him is "Spewsie looses it!" lol (it's a joke about Hughsy from Rove)
He is also often called "Little Mansy" (sung in a sing-song voice, no idea lol) he thinks it's hilarious though.

Dd is often known as Drama Queen, lately anyway :rolleyes: :p Or "Yara" Because thats how she used to pronounce her name (Kiara).

[splish n splash]

Kobi = Fred (no idea why but has been Fred since birth :laughing:)


We also call our DS FRED or FRANKIE with no idea why since birth.

He also gets magoo and just K.

[alexsmom]

Im surprised my kids actually know their real names!!! LOL

ds (alexander) sweet monkey, Xander, Xander bear, panda bear, mr magoo

dd (Poppy) popsy dops, doodle pops, sweet chicken, lolly pops

[lydie]

My beautiful daughter is named Emily is usually gets some derivitive of that :- Em, Emmy, Emmy-Lou.
We also call her Chicken, Chook, Chicken-Head, Frog, Monster, Bubba....she answers to all of them. Poor child must be really confused.

[A Party of Five]

Isabelle ~ Izzy B
Thomas ~ Tom Tom
Benjamin ~ Benny Bunny
Felicity ~ Flissy or Bubba Girl
Nicholas ~ Nicky or Noo Noo Boy

[Lateralus]

DD gets ZoJo, pickle, cheeky monkey & bubba!

[Rileysmuma]

Yep,
DS has been called Bug by DH Since he was born and now responds to that instead of his name :laughing:

He also gets called Smiley Riley because when he was born he ALWAYS had gas so he always had that little gas smile on his face but now he is just always smiling so it still suits him :p

[Mmm Dessert]

our nicknames have gone downhill with each child.

DS1 is Will but DH usually calls him Champ or Wool.

DD is Eve or Evie but she's been known as Effie or Eff since birth. (DS1 couldn't pronounce her name and it just stuck).

DS2 is Oliver but we've taken to calling him Hollie or Hol, following the lead of DD who is struggling with her Hs at the moment.

[Mandiemoo]

I waited until DD made her own nickname or what she would call herself.
Her name is Isabelle and she calls herself "Izzy" but in the last week she can actually say "Isabelle"
I call her -Isabelle, Izzy, Bella and Bella boo
DH calls her - Isabella boo boo, and Isabella motzerella (sp?)

Maybe we should have called her Isabella instead :laughing:

[Eco Goddess]

Yep:yes: Although our little man is only 2 weeks old he already has a few nicknames...

- Smooshface (he was very squished after birth cos of how he was positioned!)
- B Man (DP calls him that at times)
- Monkeyface (when I sit him upright to burp he pulls a funny face that makes him look like a monkey:laughing:)

[peanutbutter&jelly]

Plenty!
Phoenix - Bubba, bubby, Phoenixadoo, monster, terror, Nixadoo. He responds to Monster and Phoenixadoo most of the time, but his name almost always :D

Rosabella - is known as Bella mostly.
But also, Bells, Chubba, Bubby, Rosie occasionally, Bell, Princessa, Princess :)

I'm sure there will be plenty more along the way!!

[mummyvioletta]

no. they are just called a shortened version of their name eg patrick is paddy.

[Teegzie]

DD has a short name (Alice :bee:) so all of her nicnames are just silly ones that are in no way related to her real name.

She gets:
Puddin'
Spud (the 'u' is pronounced just like the 'u' in Pudding... or Puddin' :p)
Puds (same idea again. Actually we thought for ages she was saying "thanks boots" whenever DF gave her something, turns out she was saying "thanks Puds" because we were always saying it to her! :laughing:)
Kiddo
Chicken
Chicky
Stinky (although she only gets this one when it actually applies, like at nappy change time)

There are heaps more that come and go. I'm amazed she even knows her real name! :laughing:

[CocktailBubba]

DS is Phoenix but since he was born we called him 'duffy'... NO idea why lol but its so cute; when he first started talking and he wanted something he would speak as a third person and says 'duffy wants that one'

now he still refers to himself as duffy but if i ask him what his name is he will say phoenix ___ surname__ :yelclap:

The only person who uses a nick name for Keiara is her grandfather, He calls her Tilly and I am pretty sure the only reason he uses the nick name is because he can not remember Keiara.
