This is probably childish. I can't wait 'til skating is in season again.
I had several. My Grampa B. called me Skeezix and my sis Muggins.
My Gramma S. called me Bonnie. To this day, there are still some still alive that still call me Bonnie. They both were in line for my user name. The funniest thing about that is, when we were bowling couples, all at once our partner started calling me Bonnie and he knew nothing about me being called that before. He said I just seemed like a Bonnie. When Gramma S. didn't like the name you named your baby, she called you by the name she liked. Therefore, Bonnie. She called my oldest daughter Peggy, Patsy. We always called my little brother Raymond Rotten Potato Butts because he went over and got a dipped potato and ate it when no one was looking. Guess it didn't hurt him. I don't remember what they dipped the potatoes in before they planted them. Probably is outlawed now. He didn't have a middle name. He was #5 so maybe they were running out of names? My Dad's only brother "Uncle Leonard" was called Bud and I didn't realize that wasn't his name for years, I only knew him as Uncle Bud. Gramma liked Janet's name because she chose it. She was visiting us and was worried we hadn't chosen one yet so she kept naming names (that she liked) and the only one she liked was Janet. (My husband was really stubborn on names, seemed as if there weren't any he liked.Which was a relief to me we found one he agreed with.) When I finally got a backbone, it was too late.
