Nickname your family members...

quippers01's picture

I read a blog by Last-Wife where she gave nicknames to her family/others and it was a hoot. So I thought I'd like to hear what names you all might come up with for your own families.

H- Captain Oblivious
SD- Princess Oddball
BS- XBox Master
BD- Miss Nevershutsup
BM- I Love that BM also stands for "Bowel Movement" and I think it fits in most cases so I pick that here.
XH- Humpty Dumbass

I'm very interested to see what people come up with Smile

YAHOO! I'm like a "focus" of someone else's post! That is so cool!

Wow! That's an old post, you must have really been digging in the archives, so to speak. For those that don't know:

Loghead- My DH. Married 12 years in September. Actually a term of endearment, as his hobby is woodworking and building true old-fashioned log cabins from trees he fells and strips.

Princess 18- My SD. She was 5 when I entered her life. We left her at college 2 weeks ago and our house has totally changed for the better without her air of negativity.

PITA 16- Stands for "Pain in the Ass." DH removed him from the home in May due to mistreatment of me and our home. Following a "rehab" plan and moved back 3 weeks ago. Things going well. Actually had a nice breakfast with him just this morning! Still a PITA and does not help around the house, but tiny improvement in his attitude.

Lazy Boye 15- Whitest kid ever, who thinks he is black. Can't get him off his butt to help for anything. Still young enough to try to see the "good" in his bio-mom; still willing to visit her

Gibby 9- DH and my bio-son. Ever see "iCARLY?" Yup. That's my son. Same round belly and sweet sense of humor.

Loca Grande- the ex, the bio-mom. She has ADHD, Bi-Polar, RAD, ODD- basically your average psycho. Just finished a round of "I might have cancer' and totally alienated kids. I disengaged from her first- in DEcember 2009, and my life has been much more peaceful. She's the BM that will see her kids when it suits her, and bribes them to visit her, then can't understand why they never return her calls.

Gullible- her husband. Decent guy. We get along and lately we have made most of the decisions regarding visits and such.

Stepping Stone- Princess's FIRST boyfriend, hopefully a step towards something better. Nice kid, but not really right for her. She just doesn't see it yet. Sadly, they go to the same university, so she pretty much takes care of him on a daily basis now.

So that's my life!

I was reading a newer one I believe. Where you were talking about Princess going off to college. I was cracking up even though I didn't know what most of the names meant. Just the way you named them and rolled with it. Thanks!

Loghead was funnier when I didn't know it was nice LOL

LOL- sorry to burst your bubble. And there are times when Loghead is perfect because he is so wood-headed!

I named everyone last winter during some snow days off work. Now, I just work the names in my posts...

Ooooo this is gonna be fun! Let’s see…

DH- “Wolf” I’ve always called him “my wolf” cause he looks a whole lot like Wolverine from the x-men and he has some pretty wolfish tendencies… sexy beast.

SS6- “All About Me” THE most self-centered child I’ve ever encountered (he’s definitely his mothers kid). Has absolutely no empathy or interest in anything that doesn’t revolve around him, to a point that it makes him virtually unlikeable. “Little Bastard” is the nick name that involuntarily surfaces when he’s really being a pill.

SS3- “The Juggernaut” Possessing virtually unstoppable momentum and superhuman strength, this baby IS The Juggernaut! We’re just waiting out the day when we can turn him loose on a football field.

BM- “Mother Russia” She’s a Russian immigrant who considers herself “mother of the year” when actually all she does is think about herself and her own needs. Her theme song is “Part Time Mother” sung to the tune of Stevie Wonder’s “Part Time Lover”… Ooooo… she’s a paaaart time a-mother!

ME- “The President” Because I have this imaginary club called “The Bad Decisions Club” you’re welcome to become a member if you’ve ever willingly walked head first into a decision with this phrase repeating in your mind… “Oh, this is NOT gonna end well.” Yet went ahead with it anyway. I’m not only a member of TBDC, I’m the president!

I belong to a club and didn't even know it! I am my own worst enemy sometimes...it's good to know I'm not the only one Smile

DH- "Pimp Daddy Ho" (Not sure how I came up with this one for him as he's about as far from a pimp daddy as you can get, so that makes it funnier I guess)

SS11- "Precious" (I'm the only one who calls him this.. and only in my head of course!) Wink

BM- (she has many) "Miss Precious" "Skank" "Snaggletooth" (most of hubby's names I won't repeat)

BS8 months- "Kookie" (He is a very smiley, silly little baby and I started calling him Kookie Baby when he was about 2 months old, hubby calls him Dugga Doo (no idea where that came from!)

my Ex-husband "The Idiot"

Okay...but mine change sometimes..depending on how cynical I feel...

DH - DaddyWaddy
SS8 - Either BuddyWuddy or Prince of Persia
BM - Double D, Queen DD, "Your Girlfriend"
BS13- Neurotic Nelly
BD 2 - Crazy Monkey or Goof Ball
Me - Well I don't have one for me... because I'm well.. perfect ! HA Wink Totally kidding!

*snickers* on “Your Girlfriend”… DH would shoot me in the head if I dropped that one on him. Though she texts him so much sometimes it’s like she’s his girlfriend!

HeatherM's picture

Lol... I use this one when I'm particularly annoyed... and DH HATES it.... I'll just say "Your Girlfriend called"... or "Why don't you ask your girlfriend", or "Remember to tell your girlfriend".. it usually makes him mad enough to stop talking to me for a few hours...but sometiems I don't care Smile

quippers01's picture

LMAO...I do this too. "Your other wife"...H gets all pissy and says "don't do that". When he stops letting her have a say in our life I will.

HeatherM's picture

haha... after reading Stepmonster I called her "First Wife" for awhile...but I like girlfriend better... first off it sounds funnier..and second..they were never married...so it fits better.

I love some of these and may hijack for personal day to day use when I want to talk about someone and they won't know who I'm referring to!!

I really only have three names that I use often:

BM: Moth (Mother of the Year), but has to be said while voice is literally dripping with acid....

SSstb12: Mr Mellow Yellow or Dude (he has always been so mellow, but I usually call him Dude)

BD13: Her nickname has always been LuLu....no idea where it came from!!

I call Sd all kinds of things, but it's rarely nice and not to be repeated....

DH is all kinds of things too, but nothing specific...

BM- "Psycho" or "$hithead" -both DH and I use these names, we rarely call her by her given name
