Your Nickname(s)

[cmayer31]

So today I was helping over at my parents place and my dad called me an old nickname that I haven't heard since I was in my early teens. So I decided to start a thread about nicknames that we have.

My first one, the one my dad brought up, was Beeper. When I was really little I would make the beep beep sound whenever I passed someone . I must have got it from the Roadrunner cartoons. This carried over into sports too, so the nickname stuck.

The second and most used is simply Craigy. When I played a lot of hockey I was a goalie mainly, but also played out for a few teams. One of the teams had another Craig on the roster and the first game we played on the same line. The coach yelled "Craig, change!" Both myself and the other Craig skated to the bench and left no defense for our team. I was the younger and quickly became Craigy. To this day my friends still call me Craigy or Craigory.

So who else gets stuck with nicknames and why?

Pepper.
For two reasons..
My first and middle name (Kay Ann) sort of sound like Cayenne Pepper. So, my family would call me Kay Ann Pepper or just Pepper.


Kidnap.
When I first met my friend Zogi years ago, she thought the teacher called me "Kid Napp" instead of Kay Knapp. So, it's stuck since then.


Craigory is a cute nickname!

My Dad called me "Jo"

I don't actually remember why, I think it had something to do with a friend he worked with who had a witty sense of humor and the two of them got along well~

My Dad was my Good Friend for as long a I can remember

I still recall being called in for dinner one Summer day~I hid near the side of the big porch on the front or our house!!Giggling while everyone was looking for me.

My Dad walked out onto the porch(yeah, he saw me hiding, but never let me know) and Hollered, HEEEY JOOOO~ three times, then, he simply looked over the porch railing and said~

Come on in Jo, it's time for dinner -----------

All my close friends call me Finch. =D Its from some inside joke that I can't seem to recall right now.
