Anyone have nicknames for their LOs that have nothing to do with their name, and you have no idea how it happened? DH and I have never been nickname people, and even when I was pregnant we never called LO anything other than "the baby" or by her name (once we chose it).
But I've realized that for some reason that neither of us can identify we've both been calling her Boo. I keep trying to stop because I don't want her to think her name is Boo-- I would never pick that as a nickname for a child! And yet I keep finding myself calling her that (as does DH) lol.
Anyone else call their LO something random and they don't even know why?
We do this, too! He's little dude, little man... which evolved into the dude and the mon, then dudester and monster, and most recently (thanks to DH), Manitoba/monitoba. Oh my. But we also do this with basically everything/everyone, so it's good if he gets used to it early, I guess!
and she's obsessed with fairies. She calls herself Lala so we call her that too and somehow that turned in to LuLu lol. So she's Tink, LaLa, and LuLu and on rare occasions Isla Grace
