> I have a friend (well, I guess he is.. I haven't talked to him in a better part of a year, but we didn't have a falling out or anything, we just haven't been in contact.) whose name is Bud. It's on his birth certificate as such. He's named after his father whose *nickname* is Bud. He's never mentioned the "My Buddy" trama as you've endured though. His whole family is big on nicknames, he's got a cousin who goes by 'Bic', I believe, but that's not her name; it's actually a nickname for another nickname which has nothing to do with her real name.

Odd? I don't know. It sounds kind of like my family. We all have weird nicknames mostly coming down through a long chain. I'm called Bea, my brother's 'Im, my sister's Jeaner, my mom Mommer, and my dad D (that's it just one letter)

It really confuses peopel when I try to talk about my family.

And don't ask where any of those came from the trail is long and convoluted and I don't remember
