Inspired by Families & Fave Words-- What cute names do your parents/relatives have for you??

I have always been Pumpkin, according to my dad. The red/orange hair I think is what started it.. He still calls me Pumpkin- I am 29 years old.. and sometimes it's just shortened to 'Pump'... I literally pick up the phone and he is like 'Hi Pump'.

Pup, Sweet Pea, Em Bem
Kind of embarrassing now that I write them, but kinda funny too! The last one is most often used by my relatives, the first 2 by my parents. Not exactly sure why they chose those nicknames....

OMG, i have about 20 nicknames - literally.

my real name is alessandra (italian), so family started calling me 'sandra'. which, as a baby, i pronounced as 'sasa'. which then gave rise to 'sasa', 'sas', and 'sassy'.

THEN there is my dad, who used to call me 'allelujah' as some freaky derivative of 'alessandra'. from that came 'luly' and 'lul'.

then there's 'alex', 'al', 'ally', and 'a'.

i could go on, but it's getting too embarrassing!

This is almost too embarassing to post. But when I was a baby my parents got into the habit of calling me winnie, as in winnie the pooh. I can't take it anymore. AHHHHGGG!

Most of my family and FH family call me Ily (FH family can't pronounce Ileana). The neighborhood used to call me Indy because the kids used to make fun of my name and call me Indiana Jones so it stuck.

FH calls me punk and he won't stop. I ignore him now.

My name is Maureen, so for short its always been 'Maur' or 'Mo' which my fiance HATES but my friends have always called me Mo. He calls me Maur..

A few people from high school still call me Mo Buckets...my brother is Charlie...called Charlie Bucket from Charlie&choc. Factory...so they thought Mo Buckets would be great for me. NOT.
