Do you have a nickname?

Billy

55 years ago “Mugsy” maybe from Dead end Kids . . . I looked like him.

Yes, since I was a kid. My parents gave me a long ‘distinguished’ first name, but the only people who ever called me that were my parents.

Everyone else for the last 65 years (who is a friend) calls me my nickname.

I do. It is common nickname for my Christian name.

“Little Brother”. Only a few of my canoe paddling buddies call me that. It’s OK with me. So I named my canoe, “Kaikaina” (Hawaiian for little sibling).

Many over the years.
Dash as a young kid through HS sporting years.
Sweet Buns was bestowed upon me by a Secretary I had back in my 20’s
Calvie was one that a GF gave me because of the name on the waistband of my boxer briefs.

Sometimes people call me Jewels which is a play on my real name.

My husband calls me “Lor.”

I guess Lori has too many letters and syllables to remember.

Not unless “Gramma” counts as a nickname.

Most people call me by my full first name.

Some people shorten my name. Funny enough, when I meet people with my name (which happens a lot) I often shorten it, it is a three syllable name).

My husband and sister sometimes call me Juanita, actually my husband usually uses Juana. He started calling me that when he heard my sister call me Juanita.

My husband also uses two different forms of shortening my name, he once in a while calls me by my middle name, and he calls me Tana, Nena, and Chuleta. Once in a while he comes up with a nickname that I don’t like, and I tell him to stop. It’s usually something that rhymes with something else. Lol.

Edit: I forgot my exboyfriend’s family often called me Little Firstname. They still sometimes use it when I “see” them, which is very rare. See can be on facebook, still rare. I was the second JL in the family. The other one was also not related.

Yes…Lighlty.
