My dad always called me "Big Bug" and my sister "Little Bug". Don't know how or why it came about but it stuck for many, many years.

My dad called my sister Bonnie Pumpernickel once and she cried cause she thought it was something bad. Heck Bonnie isn't even her name.
In high school they called me Virgin Vivian but alas I couldn't live up to that any longer LOL

I love nick names and am always handing them out, not on purpose but I tend to wander around work making songs out of peoples names and then another name is born. My nick name when I was a kid was Debo...a friend couldn't say my name apparently and it stuck. I liked it when my folks called me Debo I could hear the love in their voices....at work I'm Helga or Helgasue and usually online I use that alot.
