LO 1 wants her nickname to be NIKKI..:) Her real name sounds nothing like Nikki.
-
@autumnlove: when I was in kindergarten I made my mom call me that! She even called my teacher and told her to follow along. I moved on quickly. She has a fantastic name, I'm sure she'll move on soon too
-
That's too cute!
-
DS never has but DD has several times - once she requested I call her by her BFF's name and if you didn't she had a huge tantrum insisting that was her name!
-
@mrs. bird: your name is cooler than Nikki!
-
@autumnlove: thanks
i love my name now, but nicole was popular when i was little, so i thought that was a cool name
-
We have a family friend, who's Son's legal name is Jake. He now wants everyone to call him James. He's 5 yrs old.

My daughter often introduces herself as Elsa. What's a mama to do?!
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Is she a Frozen fan?
-
lol!! where did she get that from?
-
@autumnlove: yes. She even pretended her name was Elsa for a whole ballet class with a substitute teacher. She would have gotten away with it except one of the other girls at the very end said she wanted to be Elsa now. I was kind of embarrassed and surprised that she would do that. Then again, I give her points for creativity!
-
@sorrycharlie: She loves being naked/nikki and one of her coaches at gymnastics is Nicole (or Nicola) but goes by Nikki....
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Haha, is this the older or younger LO?
-
@Mrs. Jacks: I'm always reminded by relatives that I insisted everyone call me "Dorothy" like from Wizard of Oz when I was small. I think it was between 2 and 4 because those three years that was my Halloween costume!
If I call J "baby" or "my baby" he says, "no! hockey baby!" so he likes to be called, "hockey baby"
-
@autumnlove: it's the four year old.
@rachiecakes: love hockeybaby, but if the love of hockey holds, you may be in for an expensive hobby! -
She asks to be called by her sister's name a lot.
-
My DD introduces herself as "FirstName MiddleName LastName Big Kid Orange Japan." I don't even know where she gets this from. Actually, I asked her where she came up with that name and she said, "I looked it up on my phone."
-
She's too little, but when I was 3 or 4, I demanded to be called Pete. Because of the movie Pete's Dragon. I also insisted on eating clam chowder (from the movie) and called my parents Nora and Lampie (from the movie).
-
No LOs yet but when I was young I wanted everyone to call be Karen. Don't know why, I just really liked it! Oh and obviously that's not my name.
-
Stormaggedon, Dark Lord of All.
Not really.
She doesn't get screen time so no Doctor Who... yet.
