So... I'm a big fan of nicknames. I have one for all but one of my friends, and my best friends have several... my friends finally stuck me with one after 3 years of failed attempts to make one stick *feeling accomplished* They've taken to calling me 'Dark Lord' and 'Father Zombie' as of late XD
How 'bout you guys? Any fun or embarassing nicknames in your resume?

I started calling my sister Kiff a few years back...not after the Futurama character, it's just a weird derivative of her name...and now it takes me a second to realize who people are talking about if they refer to her by her actual name  Her friends have started doing it too...it just suits her. I don't personally have any nicknames, but I've been going by my middle name lately because I prefer it? It fits me pretty well. Also I tend to call my pets anything BUT their name...my rabbit, Dennis, has been Snuffleface recently. Also Bunnybutt, Babbit, Bunnyboo, Dumbass, and Mr Rabbit. Which is unfortunate for him because he is a tough, freakish mofo. |

I have (had) a few nicknames when I was younger. Angel, Ang. Those types. But my favourite growing up was Jellybean.  No one calls me that anymore.   |

My dad used to (and sometimes still does) call me Boo. Because I liked peek-a-boo when I was a baby. Other than that, I don't really have any nicknames. My name doesn't really lend itself to being shortened. Or lengthened. They did used to call me the "Speed Merchant" in soccer, though, because I was the fastest girl on the team (and also ran very quietly, so the opposing team never heard me coming up behind them). So that was cool. |

Jellybean as in AnJELLYca? Speed Merchant is an awesome nickname seriously though. |

OOH! OOH! I love this! Ummm... I call my brother 'ans', my sister 'bug' (because she really liked ladybugs as a kid), my other sister I call 'rose' (her middle name), my other sister I call 'peg' (weird derivative of her name), my other sister I call 'stash'. I used to be 'skinny', but now I'm 'veej' or 'VJ.' One of my friends is 'redwood'.
None of that was interesting probably interesting, but there you go. ;D

I was called Ian by my 5th grade teacher. It was really funny, though, b/c they had to yell it 5 times before it registered in my head that they were calling me.
Since it never stuck, I guess it doesn't count. Oh, well.

Wow, why would anyone call a girl Ian? It isn't even one of those interchangeable ones...  |

Well, It's a weird way of shortening my name. *shrugs*

Holy crap Mask you have a lot of siblings. Haha how did 'VJ' come about?
Just remembered I used to be called 'Acer' in volleyball because, well, I was really good at scoring aces. Haven't played for years but there you go.

The first two initials of my name are V and J.
IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING ELSE.
Sorry about the caps, but I get harshed on a lot for that.
