Tasina stole an idea..and I will too. Nicknames!
Here are all the names from my family.
Let's start w/ Dad. He's been my dad for 41 years but before that he's had a few names.
His name is John Henry but has been called:

...his number one name though is Uncle Johnny. Even my mom refered to him to ME as Uncle Johnny
Mom:

Mother ( I use that ALOT)
Jeremy:

ME:

MPQP (old one..came from girlfriends who noticed that at a bar I was the fastest peer in the midwest)

I love Giovanni Enrico!
This is a good idea! Actually, I've already done this when I first set up my blog on my About page!!
This is cute. Our family is so boring...we hardly use any nicknames. Better go make some up.
Hey my mom is Patty Sue but her mom usually calls her Sue. My nickname is Ree or Reese, sometimes Lisa Ree, since I'm Lisa Marie. But my mom always calls me Lee or Ree, usually Ree.
