Is there a story behind it?

Wraith_Cemetery · Accepted Answer

Shamsi, Shams, Shamoos, and ShayShay are names given to me by mother-in-law's family. They're nickname forms of "The glowing sun" in Lebanese Arabic.

Turkey is a name given to me by my mum. It's just something cute that Irish people use.

Crouton is a name given to me by a close friend.

Buster Brown was a name my Pa (grandfather) gave me. It was the name of a cartoon character child from a 1900's comic strip that my grandfather grew up with. The character always got into mischief. My grandfather started calling me that when I was 8 or 9.

Yes. My family on mein mutter's side is predominantly German and she's always called me "Welpe" when I was a boy which is translated closest to "pup" or "cub". But I haven't been called that in years. If a girl ever called me that I'd fucking melt.

My stepmother calls me "Garcon". Which is French for "boy".
Dad calls me "Numbuh 2 son" 'cause I'm the second born and also Star Trek runs deep in the paternal-son bond. Although if I get him a beer he switches it to "Numbuh 1 son".

1. "Twin Ds" because my boobs also look like D cups.
2. "Double Dee" because they just wanna reinvent my nickname.
3. "Double Down Dee Dee" because I often double down in Black Jack.
All of the above were coined by uncles.

I'd get called piglet, I never stopped eating and also I was very similar to Piglet from winnie the pooh, kind of cute, kind of embarrassing.

**That dickhead who moved away** ... does that count? lol... only joking... I have told this story a couple of times on here so forgive me if you've heard it and also forgive me because it wasn't about me it was about my older brother. So I love my Mum but she has a naive side and had her first child relatively young Now for whatever reason she heard the word "Dildo" used in an affectionate way and decided to apply it to her child without fully understanding the word. So my older brother was often referred as her lovely "dildo", eldest "dildo", most mature "dildo" etc... I genuinely wish this wasn't a true story lol
