Does your child have a nickname?

I was wondering if you have any nicknames or petnames for your kids? If so, how did you come up with it?

In  our case, Gavin’s nickname was *squishy fishy. *That came about because of *Finding Nemo. *I don't remember exactly why, but that's where it came from.

Elliott has always been called *Doodle Bug. *I can't recall why that got started.  Hello parenting fail.  I should probably remember things like that.

Emmett on the other hand is a different story.  Until yesterday,  he was called *Pickle*.  That came out of nowhere. Emmett walked up to Lizze one day and said that from now on, we should call him *Pickle*.  We were like, *okay Emmett. *Since he's been wearing his glasses, he looks like a *Professor*.  So now we've been calling him *Professor Pickle. *

He hasn't quite taken to it yet and still prefers to be call *Pickle*.  We'll see how that goes.

Nicknames are cute and fun if done in a kind and loving way.  They also tend to fit the person's personality.

Do you have any nicknames for your kids? How did the nickname come about?
