I've seen quite a few people use nicknames for their son/daughter.
What nickname has your LO acquired?
If they have one, how did they get it and when?
Ellie has always been called 'Bear'. It sounds crazy but when she was born, she had so much hair! DH said it was as black as bears fur so that's where the name came from. She responds to it and we've been out and about before on several occasions when I've shouted "bear" down an aisle and she's come running. We've had some pretty weird looks at times
Lydia is known as 'Diddy'. Her elder cousin Molly [my niece] asked if we were going to call Lydia "Liddy" for short and we said no. When she first met Lydia, she immediatly said "she's diddy!" meaning she's tiny, which was the case. So she was Lydia to Diddy Liddy then just Diddy. She even signs cards to Molly as Diddy, it's pretty cute. Lydia doesn't like it when me, DH or Ellie call her Diddy; only Molly is allowed to, lol.
