Nicknames

Nicknames.  Some we planned on; some we never saw coming.

Some we say; some the kids say.

But what appears to be the case with nicknames {at least in our house} is the more kiddos there are, the more variety of names are created & said:

Thomas

Thomas Joseph

Tommy

Tom

Goose (as in Silly Goose)

Abbigail

Abbigail Grace

Abby

Abbs

Abbu

Ab

Marilyn

Marilyn Jane

Mar (sounds like "bear")

Mae-Mae
