Nicknames
I've been Mandy Moon and then Mandyz Moon (the zed is silent) for years - to the point that many friends actually thought my last name was Moon.
My daughter was nicknamed (by friends) Babyz Moonbeam before she was born and named.

We nicknamed ds1 Gilbert for a while, as a preg book I was reading said "Your proto human is now the size of a grape", then he became Arthur when it was "Your small inuterobod is now the size of half a banana" (half a - arthur geddit!!!). Arthur he remained.
Ds2 just got "the lump" or "the pest". Having consumed a large quantity of evil Haribo sweets thru pregnancy we called him Harry. (Only kidding, but that is the story any potential girlfriends will get, so we can check out their outraged green credentials. Or boyfriends.). I didn't have time to read preg books second time around.

NevIt came about because someone saw my photo and was (pleasantly) suprised because she'd always got an image of me as Dame Edna from my postings!
