Casual Friday: What's In A Name?

Yesterday, my friend ajooja said he liked the idea of his grandson coming up with a cute nickname for him. I suggested the boy call him ajooja. It's all good until someone asks the kid what it means.

That sent my thoughts off on a tangent -- a common occurrence, yes -- and I realized I could become "Grannie Annie". Cute enough. Better than plain ol' Annie Jones, anyway.

That sent me off on another tangent (see, I told you). I wondered if any other bloggers would be willing to let their kids or grandkids call them by their "bloganyms".

Could Rainbow Man shout, "Blue! The puppy just peed on the floor again!"?

Will Baby Morris' first word be "Vi-Vi" instead of "Ma-Ma"?

How believable would this kid's excuse be? "Dear Teacher, Please excuse my son from turning in his math assignment because the wiener ate his homework. Signed, Nobody™"

Now that I think of it, it's probably not such a good idea after all.

I mean, what if your kid got lost at the super mega center and decided to have you paged?
