My friends call me... Uhm. You could pronounce it like "goal-eey", I guess. Which means "naked" in ruissian. My name is Nikita, and they used to call me "Nekit", and the one of them said it sounds just like "naked". So now they call me "goal-eey" meaning "naked".
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Previous cats of my dad's have held the nickname "papa's little kaschunuss" because my dad loves cashews (and we're of German descent, hence the language choice). 😁 (Okay, so I'm the only one who's ever used it, but still...!"
Oh can we please have a wallpaper with the first panel? They are so cute <3
Interestingly, my college private lesson instructor called me "Meatball", too.
Oh! And my cats name is Melis. Norwegian for powdered sugar. Fits her since she is white, small and too cute.
My mother calls me small seed. I donæt know why. Oh and we are from Norway.
(jk do what you want, big fan, you're pretty awesome 😂💛)
I look forward to crab dip & meatball making more reappearances. You've realised what you've done right?
Lmao I love this
Baked beans got me 💕😭
I used to call my husband Dove. Shortly after we were married, we were visiting a friend and the guys were all out at the forge. I called out Hey Hon! and they all answered. That wasn't really gong to work. A friend had a sort of pet dove, who was the most hormonal thing we had ever seen. When a group was visiting, it would go around the room trying to hump the feet of anyone wearing white socks. Seemed fitting.
XD
This is hilarious
My family nickname is Kyppah, a short of baby-talk version of the nickname Kitten. I'm less than 5ft tall and my nickname in my family has always been Kitty or Kitten; over the years it's diminutized to Kyppah.
My nickname is maus (mouse). Long story short, i had an anthropomorphic "portrait" done and the artist drew me as a grey "country mouse" and everyone said it was SO me. Fast forward several years to a concert given by a friend's band at a small bar/restaurant. It was crowded, and i'm short. So as the band broke for intermission i moved back and sat UNDER the tall shelf/bar i been standing by so i was out of the way. When the band walked by where i'd BEEN standing my friend was looking for me and happened to glance down and saw me. He turned to the band and announced there was "a mouse under the table"..... the name stuck.
Hubby is dorkface and I'm darling or kitten. I'm pretty sure he forgot my actual name once or twice. Lol!
My parents nicknamed me Cheese when I was a toddler. Apparently I went through a mac & cheese only phase. I vowed I would never do such a thing to my future child... for the last 16 years I've called my daughter Squeaks because when I hug her & squeeze just a little, she makes a squeaking noise & has since she was about 2.
That is adorable!
That's great! Love it!
meatball 🥺
We call my daughter Squirrel cause she’s tiny for her age and she runs around chattering at herself
So cute.
This is too adorable!
I'm not sure how it happened, but calling my cats "fluffernutter" became a thing. I've been informed an actual fluffernutter is peanut butter and marshmallow spread on bread.
It is now my life goal to have someone in my life that I call "Baked Beans"
I call my dog wiggles and I don't know why. Sometimes I call him tater, potato, mashed tater, little bitty potato...I love carbs 😂
My ex kept trying to call me honeybuns as a nickname. I HATED it. I told him he was going to keep trying that crap I was going to give him a stupid food name like Crouton...... I never got a nickname, but he did! Lol, Crouton stuck.
So cute
Well ... she's kinda not wrong.
I love how I can totally hear this in my head.
🤣 that was excellent
My name is Andra (like Sandra without the "S") and people use to have the hardest time with it. So at my second job where I work with kids I got by Andi.
I call my husband 'Muffin', not sure exactly why. I think i was trying to annoy him with sappy pet names and that one stuck. I call my youngest daughter 'my flower' and my oldest sometimes 'my honey bun'. I have one friend who calls me Jupiter, but i can't think of any others for myself at the moment
I am 'Toes' or 'Amber Toes' (only to family) because when I was little I used to walk around on my tiptoes
Bunny! I am nicknamed after my Greatx2 Aunt ❤
Meatball was my first thought, too! 😄
I was always Cupcake growing up. Heck, my parents STILL call me that sometimes, and I'm thirty now. 🤣
Pringles, because every time my friend's Gran saw me I was eating pringles 🤷♀️ she never referred to me by my real name
My wife's nickname is Chipmunk. When she was in nurses training she had four impacted wisdom teeth removed at one visit. Her face ballooned up.
Red Meat. Not my nickname, but my friend. We were talking about the lone star tick {It makes you allergic to red meat) and she thought that red meat refers to the physical appearance of the meat. She an Ag student in college.
Welp....now I have to find someone that will answer to Crab Dip and another to Baked Beans
Pixie's has a point though - I had a friend in highschool who when giving everyone in the group nicknames she told me "you're Jelly because I really like Jelly."
One of the first things my Spanish teacher taught me is that this is far from a universal thing. Calling any Hispanic person who hasn't grown up in the culture of doing so by the name of a food is apparently one of the best ways to get them furious at you! Please do correct me if I'm wrong, I'm going off 1 data point.
Baked beans fits Randall well lol
Biscuit, The True story is because I use to steal Biscuits but my Dad likes to say it is cause I will ‘Rise to the Occasion’
i call my cat dizzy dizbeans sometimes
My youngest sister called me "Cookie" for years.
I just called my SO 'my little steak' and we laughed for a solid three minutes. Thanks for the inspiration!
There was a while where my nickname was Peanut.
Oh my gosh, Pixie is so cute laying on Brutus's head in the first panel! I mean, the whole strip is adorable, but that first panel is perfection! 😍😍 My family has never really been into nicknames, but my dad called our old cat Lunkhead, which was certainly not his real name.
Crab dip and meatball. Their humans are so kind to them, I love it!
This is so ridiculously adorable 😍
Pixie is too precious for this world, I love her so much! Brutus is the kind of dog I wish I had
I like Randle's nickname "baked beans" 😄
In junior high for some reason I ended up with Chris Rex. So yeah my name is Chris, but I don't recall the dinosaur part.
My nickname started with Ginger Ale because my shortened name is Ale but now it's just Gin, which is funny cause I don't drink 🤣🤣🤣
they are so cute♡ a nickname I'm called by my family is in our native tongue (not confident in the spelling, so we'll just leave that out) that basically means "so cute" or "cute little baby" which started when I was a baby and never stopped. my friends started calling me short stack in middle school because I was/am shorter than a stack of chairs😅
I got a nickname Onion from my username on one platform and I got called Satan by my friends at some point but I don't remember why
My nickname has always been possum because my parents said I used to always play possum when I was younger
"Your built like a baked bean" "A baked...A baked bean?!"
I went through film school. A fellow student had a hard time remembering my name. He wrote a song called "Henrik the Barbarian'. To this day, they still call me The Barbarian on set.
My siblings called me Er-bear growing up. It was short for Erin-unbearable
I LOVE the look on Randall's face! 🤣
Dikkie dik it's a dutch cartoon about a chubby ginger cat and I was a chubby child so I got called that (it looks like di.ck but it means like fattie fat, dutch is a weird language I know)
My nickname was 'kleintje', which means shortie. Yeaah i am kinda short so..
Where I used to work I was given the name of Glennjamin. People have always thought that my name was short for something it isn’t.
My mom nicknamed me Boo because I looked like the kid from Monsters Inc as a toddler.
I love this one 💗💗
Pixie is one spoiled kitty if she knows she likes crab dip 😂
Probably tasted it exactly one time at a wedding. Her sense of taste has never been the same since.
