DD's confusing nicknames

Cutemin

Her name is Brianna.  Ty calls her Brinanna.  We picked up the nanna part cause it is cute.  Then it evolved again to Nanny and Nanner.  We are constantly calling her nanny or nanna which turns out to be very confusing to others since nanna = grandmother to some ppl and nanny is of course, nany.

I call Justin gootzie. Started at cutes, then cutes Magootz, then gootz and now to gootzie or gootzie bear. The other day I said "bye" as he walked away from the kitchen and he turned to me and said "bye gootz". Hey- If we raise them we can call them what we like, right?

My little sis is named Briana, and my little bro started calling her Ana since he couldn't say the whole name and it stuck.  The whole family called her Ana til she was 5.  Well, now we were trying to teach Gavin family names, and my dad kept trying to get him to say Aunt Bri....but it only came out as Ana!

Ok so this is for our furbaby but Spencer's nicknames are

Spencer Dencer, Dencer, Doof, Doofer, Spenc and I can't think of the others.

He even has a song to the tune of Yankee Doodle Dandy...

Spencer Dencer is a dog just chewing on his boney

Stuck some butter in his Kong and called it snack-a-roni

Spencer Dencer is a dog

Spencer Dencer doo

Spencer Dencer is a dog who likes to eat cat poo. 

I know it is gross but funny none the less. DH will make up other random songs for the dog. I can't imagine what we will do to our poor child!

When we were teaching my niece names we would ask her to say Aunt Meg and it came out more like Achmed and that has sort of stuck.

One of K's sister (grown adult in her 40s) still has the nickname boobie.  I don't think it has anything to do with boobs b/c she got it when she was a child and no one seems to recall where the name came from.  Needless to say when we're holding a conversation in public and one of us says "Go ask Boobie" or "You need to call Boobie" we get the side eye

This is so funny, my family makes up songs about our animals too.  We used to have a Dalmation named Daisy and we have a song about her:

Daisy is a dog, A woofer bow-wow.

Onkie donkie dog, looks like a cow-cow.

But she's just a dog, because she has no UTTERS!

You should hear my little sisters Skyler sing this song when she was 2, the cutest thing ever.

 

My sister's name is Chelsea, but we nicknamed her Chel-Bell, or Chelsea Welsie... My brother's name is Bill but we call him Bum or Billy Bum.  My nickname is Toofer, and my sister Skyler is just Skye-Skye.  Nothing too out of the ordinary.
