Strangely enough, my family all call me Susan and my friends all call me Sue. It was never planned, it just happened that way. I've never heard my best friend call me Susan. Never.

Funny thing, same with me. Certain people call me Sue, Susie (fam) and Susan. I could never figure it out but it is what it is. I've been called worse hahaha

I think your childhood name should have been precious. You look like a "precious" to me. Or maybe we'll even shorten it to Presh. You are adorable and you needed a sweet nickname.

My dad calls me "Punkin", my late MIL called me "Little Bit" because I'm short. My best friend in Albuq calls me "Leetle", another reference to being short. Oh well.

Well I'll tell you mine when I was very little. Droopy Drawers, cause my diaper was always drooping. Guess I outgrew that. My dad had a nickname for all his kids but me. Never gave me one, my grandma called me Ann, the only one to do that, which is my middle name, my grandpa called me Shelly. Which is close to Shirley, I guess. That's all I remember..

Blondie was cuz I had blonde, blonde hair when I was little & because of the cartoon character I guess!

I saw this and couldn't believe what I was reading. My dad called me Suzie Q and everyone in the neighborhood called me Blondie. My hair was really blonde almost white. My middle name is Suzzett so that is where the Suzie Q came from.
