Day 19-Nicknames you have and why you have them

Oh, I have had SO many nicknames in my life. I’ll go over a few that are still around, and a few that didn’t stick so much…

Before I start I figured it might be helpful to let everyone know my full name… Jennifer Renee~ (Boehrer) Mize

Jenn – Pretty sure I decided when I was younger that I didn’t want to be Jenni, so I decided to sport Jenn for awhile and it just stuck. :)

Aunt Jenni – My niece Chelsey started this. For some reason it was easier to say than Aunt Jenn, and I didn’t mind. I think it sounds better than Aunt Jenn anyway. :)

Jenni Joy – Again, with the Jenni. But, my Mom and my brother Mike often use this as a nickname. I guess it’s just because I have brought so much joy into their lives! :)

Jenni Benny – I’m realizing that most of my nicknames have Jenni in them. However, most of them are also from my family and they can get away with it. :) My cousin Anna actually started this one, it didn’t last long, but it was there. :)

Jenni B. – My brother Dave started this one. If I hadn’t gotten engaged I would have changed my license plate to say Jenni B. :)

Mommy – Self-explanatory. :)

Babe – My hunny-bunny only gets to call me this one.

Bear/Grizzly Bear – This was a nickname from my Dad. It went back and forth between Bear and Grizzly Bear depending on the mood I was in. :)

Angle Girl – This one was from my Mom. I think my brother’s often wondered how she came up with this one.

J.B. – My idiotic Freshman basketball coach called me this to decipher between myself and another Jenny on the team. However, I don’t understand why because she went by Jenny and I went by Jenn. He was just an idiot I think.

Those are all of the nick-names I can think of for now. I’m sure I am forgetting some of them. If you can think of any, leave them in the comments. As I look back at these names, I think only 1 of them actually is no longer in use, Jenny Benny. I’m ok with that. :)
