[seabeyond]

(i know, i did what i could to be totally insulting as i ask for your help. but really, i was just saying it in tease, cause this is a silly thread, even for the lounge)

i need the perfect nickname for my great niece. i have given them to boys at birth and here they are hitting teen and they still hold them dear. sugarplum and sweetiepie are being used.... i need one ot fit her, and i havent come up with one.

thanks for playing.

1. Let it happen organically.

That way if/when you come up with something, it'll have meaning to it.

2. Spitball.

Try it.

3. My great aunt called me "Squeezums" because she liked to give me hugs

She was an artist, and about 52 years ago when I was six, I received a letter from her with a watercolor she had painted on the envelope of me taking the letter out of the mailbox . That was very impressive!

Have you spent time with your great niece? Is she very young? If she's very young she won't know you don't have a special name for her yet, and as she gets older one will occur to you, as DarkTirade said.
