ABer's nicknames....
Do you have any nicknames? Do you have more than one? Who calls you by it and why? Is it appropriate? Do you like it?
My mum calls me Claire Bear (very imaginative (!), and my dad calls me Monst' (short for Monster). I weighed nearly 11lbs when I was born and I was his 'Monster Baby' circus freak! x

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.It seems that everyone calls me 'Chrissy' these days which is not my given birth name! Only my immediate family and oldest friends call me by my full name.
Other nicknames include Smiler (because of my continuous cheeky grin!), Angel, Blondie (i'll give you one guess!) and Gaffo (which I don't like and have put an end to).
A few of my friends call me Milhouse because it's a bit like my surname but I would like to point out that I am not a small boy with a big nose, blue hair, dodgy glassed and odd parents (ok, well maybe the odd parents bit is true).
I'm a 43 year old bloke, and am known to my sisters as "Bun."
This because when I was a little kid of about 4 or 5 my mam always used to call me "her little currant bun" and would follow it up with "you've got a lovely little bum!"
When sending greetings cards to my mam, I always sign it "Bun" or "Little currant bun." This nickname always stayed inside the family until a few years ago when one of my sisters "accidentally" told one of my workmates all about it on a night out! He was sober enough to remember to tell the lads at work and for a few days I was called it at work. Thankfully, mercifully, it didn't quite stick! But the lads agreed on one thing, I do still have a lovely bum!
Oh lord so many... full name Louisa has resulted in:
Lu (rather obviously)
Weaza (derived from my brother's incapability to grasp louisa when he was very little)
Weaza-lu (amalgamation of the two)
Berri (came from an incident involving a raspberry... let's leave it at that)
Weeg (name given to me by family... not sure why. Believe it is short for "The baby Weejus" :) )
Doll (nickname given to me as apparently when around 12 i resembled a china doll... let's say i didn't like it, as i consequently cut all my lovely blonde hair off! Well atleast its grown back...)
Toilet (brother's imaginative pun on the nickname"Lu" - it is exceedingly unadvisable to call me this; especially if you have easily kick-able balls)
Sputnik, Munchkin, Schnert (names given to me by father for reason known only to him)
Lucrezia (after Lucrezia Borgia, another gift from my father. I hope this is because it sounds vaguely like Louisa, otherwise i'm slightly offended. google her to find out why)
Wellsy (for those i know who find louisa to hard to handle... bless em)
