Only in the school? Well, I was bullied a lot, so the nicknames given were not positive....


 

But amongst family and some friends, I was called "Coco" which I am still called today at times.

And for more cutsey names, I was called "Pumpkin", one of many, by my mother and "Baby Owl" by my grandmother.

Geez! I had a few nicknames! 

My older sister called me Hazel! Some of you might remember the TV sit-com back in the early 60's? Hazel (played by Shirley Booth) was a domestic, live-in maid - my sister would make me wait on her hand and foot as her personal 'maid' in lieu of telling on me when I did things she knew my parents would skin me alive for! Technically, she black-mailed me! (My sister's name is Eve, and I STILL call her Evil! LOL)

My middle name is Jean - somehow, I ended up being called Fyllis Jean the Butter Bean (later shortened to just Butter Bean) for a long, long time!

In high school, I became Frankie because a guy I was dating thought spelling my name with an 'F' was just wrong. He said if I wanted to have a name that started with 'F', I should have been named Frankie. So, it stuck.

My nieces and nephews all call me Aunt Fyll.

Baha,my sister's middle name is Jean, and my mom called her Emily Jean Jumping Bean. XD

I don't remember any nicknames from early school, there's not much you can do with my name.
My mom called me Kayl (pronounced like kale, the vegetable), Kaylie Waley, or Sweet Patata (potato in mom-talk) Pie.

I did have a friend who called me Kitty for a while, but that was late high school, not really childhood. XD

They used to call me Frenchy in high school. When I worked at the paper plant, the guys called me Pammy. And even where I work now, some people will call me Pammy. My co-worker calls me Pammy-Sue sometimes, usually when he really wants to tick me off. 

Rigel, our son was nicknamed Kermit (the Frog) because of the way he sat on the floor when he was little. He looked like a frog and a friend of ours started calling him Kermit. To this day, when he sees our son, he calls him Kermit.

Embarrassing... I had a nickname given to me in junior high by the girl who sat in front of me...

It was in the late 60's...She was up t date with the lingo of the times..kind of beat nick .....

The story goes: I guess I was bothering her too much by asking her questions. (me bad in one class which I hated). I tapped her once too often for notes or to ask a question... She turned around and said: "Clyde!!! Stop it!! what is going on??""""

well, at that point she decided my name was "Clyde".... I had that name until I graduated....even a couple of teachers knew my nickname; the nice teachers....they know who was being referred to....

So Clyde I was, until I graduated.....or at became a senior and had no more contact with this girl....

My real name is Cynthia....my family and friends always called me Cindy....

This thread is bringing back horrible memories. 
  When I was a kid, I was a somewhat overweight kid saddled with the nick name of Peggy.  Naturally, my new nick-nick name became Piggy.  Even my friends' parents called me that!

...with the cats...
i was painfully shy as a child. there were times that i'd be visibly shaking while having to be around other kids. so shy that i would let my bangs (hair) grow out a bit so my eyes were a bit harder to see, and harder for me to actually see the other kids in school. because of those extra long bangs, i was nicknamed 'sheep dog'. just another reason why i absolutely hated school.

on the bright side, i love to learn and continue to do so even these days, as an adult.

Nobody has ever called me anything but my name. But my uncle used to call my youngest brother George :D. His name is not George ;). And it's funny because whenever his hair got long he looked like George Harrison when he was in the Beatles. . .actually now he looks a lot like George's son Dahni---and they're the same age. I don't think that's why my uncle called him George though. I think he did it just to annoy him :lol3:.
