This is my little princess Tabitha-Lo. After spending 8 months coming up with her name we have ended up mostly calling her Sherbie Tib Tabs! We keep saying it in public places and I am sure people over hearing us must think we are crazy or just very mean parents.
Anyone else have special nicknames for their little ones?
we spent forever trying to decide on a name for both our children. We had decided we did not want names which could be shortened to some thing different. In the end we picked Paige AKA paigey G G and Jack AKA jackamus. I dont think it really matters what name we would have picked their nick names just came easily and without us even realising.
ReplyDeleteI spent a good month of my pregnancy convincing my son's father that the names i chose were really his idea. Reult was though... Logan was born. He is mostly known as 'The Beast' and 'Skwidge' by me(in a loving way of course) but is also occasionally known as 'Logan Berry' or 'Baby Bear' by certain members of the family.
ReplyDeleteWe both decided our son would be called Edward before he was even born, I love names that can be changed, so Teddy as a baby, Ed as a teenager, Edward as a business man and Ted as a grandad. That way he can chose which he prefers when he's old enough. He is usually Ed to us but the nick name that has stuck is Teddy Two Shoes!

ReplyDeleteWe call William Fatso (a whole 15lbs at 8 months!) and Esther we call McChester!
ReplyDeleteso true - I wanted Isabella for Emma but husband refused but I still call her Bella - I think they evolve into names, she also answers to ASBO
ReplyDeletePriceless first post. Something is seriously scaring that child in the picture though.... on second thoughts, I don’t want to know. Loved it. #MyFirstBlogPost
ReplyDeleteHaha!
ReplyDeleteThere is, its me!
That is my Sherbie Tib Tabs, the look on her face is one a child should always be giving their mother! FEAR.
:-)
Well she takes 'Babyzoid' on my blog, but in real life she has always been Biggle-Boggle since she graduated from Little Doll Face. Really not sure why, but Biggle Boggle suits her and has stuck.
ReplyDeleteOoh I got so into the post that I forgot it was your first - bravo!
ReplyDeleteHehehe we call Tori 'Cake' most of the time coz PG tests all came up negative til I was 4 months gone so I just got accused of eating too much cake to explain the weight gain. It turned out to be Tori but she's still my Cake!
ReplyDeleteArthur just gets Artie-fart most of the time, poor sod...
