Archer used to say "Bampaw and Mam-ma" but he's gotten better and pronouncing things and can now say "Grampa and Grama Shell." When he says "Uncle Scott" and "Uncle Todd" they sound exactly alike.
Denise used to call me Me-Me, Leah used to call me Aim, Grandpa Shorty used Buttercup, Grandpa Glenn used Amos. Sometimes Dave M. called me Ramona, and he called Denise Beatrice.
What nicknames did people call you, or what did you call your kids or siblings or other people in your life?

Mom used to call Amy 'Yma' and she used to call both of us- Boo Boo Girl (that's one of my favorites)
Dad used to call me Neicey or Neicer, and Dan has too many for me to count or begin to tell you. James has the infamous 'PJ', but it's a secret between him and I- so no Mom, I still won't tell you what it means...
And I think we could start one for Shelly that has to relate to her being so 'noisy'...what do you think?
Suzy Girl was used quite often for both you girls when you were younger. Mom has signed notes and cards to me as "Wifey" for a couple decades now. I don't think Meem has been mentioned yet for Amy. I like to call Archer "Little Man" once in a while and of course we all refer to him occasionally as "The Boy".
Here are some nicknames of people I grew up with: Grub, Race horse, Newt, Mad Dog, Spud, Gut, Wangfu and his younger brother Fu.
Nick names do change over time. Some times youget a more mature nick name as you get older some times you dont.
When I was a child it was "Charlie Brown".
When in high school it was "Russ". A nick name by mistake as I was mistaken often or a guy in my class named Russ Johnson.
College it was "Crash". The Fraternity brothers nick named me that as I took afternoon classes and was always still in bed when they left in the morning. Later it was changed to the "Chancelor
Other fraternity men I lived with.
