Edited by Sumpig-2: 2/20/2024 10:53:34 AMWhoops, lil long. [spoiler]Pa (not often actually), pops, *dad (*The internet has ruined its long form) Ma, mom, mama, ma-mah, mother, mothAH, Your/Her Mommesty Sis [b]or[/b] [i]a bird that’s spelt close to her name, but the first syllable is pronounced like her name.[/i] (I’m not typing her name.) Honorary mentions: Kiddo, goober, clutz, dingus, silly Mom just repeats the last syllable Grandpa… thats pretty much it for grandpa. Maybe gramps. Not really. Gonggong for my maternal grandpa Father’s side of uncles and aunts it’s Tito or Tita. -They do not look Filipino, but they [my Aunts and Dad] are. My uncles aren’t but it feels weird calling them Uncle (as part of their name, not the fact they’re an uncle) at this point. Mothers side it’s … well Uncle and Auntie, Then one aunt we call Yimama, One cousin we call Waiwai Gege (he was a lil chubby back then.) or just Waiwai Gunggung and *Popo for my Great Uncle and Aunt *do note these have Chinese pronunciations, the o’s have more of an exhaling ah sound to the end of them. Other cousins i use their names. If I know their names. For me it’s my name but twice (a mother exclusive) or bro/broskie (sister) Dad doesn’t have one for me cause my name is fast enough to say anyways. For outer family (paternal) I’m [b]Little [my name][/b] because my uncle, [b]Tito [same name][/b], literally has the same name and spelling. No, pretty sure I wasn’t named after him.[/spoiler]

Grandpa Grandma - Nana Papa My uncle calls me Q-Tip but that’s just him, I don’t really have a nickname.

My nickname is Trey (I hate it but they won’t stop)

Immediate family calls me Sissy bc I’m the only sister. Other than that I just get called my regular name or Em/Emilz. I have an Aunt Viv, she’s great, love her to death. She calls me her “Beauty” which is always really nice 🙂 My uncle calls me sweetheart or sweetie

I have a cousin, Nella. We call her the pope. My aunt Madeleine goes by many names. Mads is the most common, though my one English inept sister has took to calling her maz for a while. We have a family friend, Robert, though I only found out his name wasn’t in fact Rex when I was 15. My mother is the oldest of three kids. A nickname that I occasionally hear my grandfather use is old snooks. My aunt’s nickname for her daughter is Rue. Don’t know why. It only took one occasion where that name was misheard for us to start calling her gru. That one stuck. As for me, my parents call me flim. Don’t know how you get flim from James, but it is what it is.

When my family wants my attention, they typically just yell, "HEY AS.........," oh wait, CoCs. Never mind.
