Before he could speak well my littlest brother called me Mimi (instead of Amy)

Oh and I remembered Ben is sometimes called stress head when he's barking at nothing

My OH's latest name for Scout is "Puffin". I don't even really know why - I think it's a mix between puppy and muffin / scruffin.

I forgot "Meathead" and "Fathead" for Abby.

Neo is almost always "Young Lady" and "Ma'am" when she's table-surfing or doing other things she shouldn't be...and they both get called "Sissy" but Neo seems to like Sissy better than Abby does. I think she misses her only-dog status sometimes.. :lol:

'Sissy' would drive both my dogs bananas. :lol:

When I say "Sis" it's short for what's this? or Who's this? But whatever 'it' is, the "Sis" word is a high value word which gets an instant reaction and heightened alert status from both my dogs.

If I see something and want my dogs alert to it, I merely say "Sis".

I can't believe I haven't answered this yet, lol...

Anyway, Tinkerbell (my 2.5lb tea-cup in my avatar) mostly answers to "Tink" - but sometimes I call her Potato, lol. I don't know why, it just happened one day, and since then I do it off and on when we're playing. She's responsive to that name as well. :)

I have more, but I'm getting shy and embarrassed about it now.

Pippin is also sometimes called Pump, or Pumpkin, Bump or Bumpkin... But you didn't hear that from me. :oops:
