When Luca was just a mere bumb Bluetooth and I loved to harrass family and friends by calling him salamander. We kept the name a secret because we didn't have a clue what his name would really be and messing with people is quite probably my favorite thing to do in the whole world.
Now that he is here I want to have a nickname for him. Bluetooth is sometimes called jelly bean, cute and I was sometimes just called Tosh, not so cute or creative. Score 1 for the Vallejo family.
I do not want Luca to be called Luc although Luc looks better the Luke. Sometimes I will call him Bugaboo but the irony of using a highly branded name on my child is not lost on me. That word is great fun to say. Try it, three times really really fast. At times I will compromise and call him bug which is cute in a maybe sort of way.
The whole post then is:
1) That I need ideas for a nickname.
2) Can a nickname just be given or do you have to earn it?
3) What was your favorite nickname?
