Kish
G Kish (My significant other is known as GQ)
Lil’ Ma
Lil’ Lady
Smiley
Bubbles (because of my personality)

As a child, my family and their friends called me Doby Gillis or just Doby because I was so clumsy. Today few refer to me as Doby but thank God I grew out of my clumsiness.
:D

I almost forgot one other name. Rudy!

When I was in college, we did a production of popular black sitcoms. Because Keisha Knight-Pullliam looks like me (I'm a few years older), I got stuck playing the part of Rudy. I had on a plaid skirt and a cardigan with two thick ponytails and ever since then, I was known on my campus as Rudy Huxtable.
So every now and then, when I see someone I went to school with who can't remember my name, they refer to me as lil' Rudy.

All of my immediate family and 1 aunt shortened my real name and just calls me by that.

2 Aunts and 2 uncles would call me MAMA

1 Uncle would call me Myrt, short for Myrtle.....(don't ask why, cuz I don't know)

My hunny calls me bad girl :p

My mom calls me Gene or booder (don't ask)

My uncle calls me Big Foot (because I'm like 3 inches taller than him, I call him Leprechan (sp?))

My SO calls me Bum.

My brother calls my cousin "Water Head" because his head is shaped a little bit like a water bottle (the gallon size) :D

For some reason, my aunt is called Trudy by her sisters and her father and Tootie by her nieces and nephews (we thought the older people were saying Tootie when they called her Trudy). Anyway, her name is Caroline. No one seems to know how that got started.

And of course the classics: Rae-Rae (girl cousin), Janie (mommy MJ), Ty (my brother Tyrone), and Pop-Pop (y'all know already)

Well I was blessed with the family nickname - "Wee-Wee" ... Primarily, because I was the youngest and was treated me like a baby...

My Brother nickname was "Pop"... and I had one cousin blessed with the nickname "Fatty," which she hated and probably the reason she lost alot of weight... Now, she is SKINNY!

I was speaking to my mother today and she said the sweetest thing. (I am glad that we are starting to work on our relationship :D) Anyway, she said "Hello my Butterfly!" I was like "uh Hey". So she said that she saw the most beautiful butterfly while she was sitting on her porch a few minutes prior and she thought about me and how I have blossomed/transformed into a beautiful young woman. She said that she was glad that I am opening up and it's beautiful, and that's her new nickname for me, "Butterfly". I thought it was mushy/sweet!

My nickname is Na or Na-Na. It was derived from my middle name, Renee. I HATE it! THe only people who are allowed to call me that are relatives and family friends who've known me all my life. My best friend cannot call me by that name.

My soror/cousin calls me Baby, because I am the youngest on my father's side.

My Mom and Dad call me Pooh

Miss. Mocha 05-06-2003 02:15 AM

My mom calls me Tina....a shortened version of my middle name.


My friends call me Tudie...short for "Attitudie"


My husband calls me Tudie, with the big, fat booty. As if I haven't heard that one enough.

I've been called R2D2, Rudey Tudie and many others.
