Jerry (my dad) = Bunny to his siblings, Uncle Bunny to my cousins...He also gave himself the middle name "Pernell" when he was 8 or 9 from some character on Rawhide that now appears on all government documents
Eloise (my deceased grandmother) = Diddy
Beverly (my aunt) = Hennie
Zenobia (my cousin) = Toy
Artis (my grand-uncle) = Sonny Boy
Never heard that name at all otherwise.
Baby, Bong, Bong Bong, Boy, Pinky, Chic, Chicqui...
in our first team meeting i tryed to play it off by calling him mr. "boosovoge" (french pronunciation). He held me after and said, "tom, i appreciate your creativity, but my name is buttsavage."
it was completely surreal.
back to the topic at hand...
Wow. Even if you tried to abbreviate it or something it would still be "BS".
There was a senator in NH named dick sweat.
do you seriously have an uncle balls? that is fucking awesome.
a good friend of mine named josh beaver had an uncle called harry.
many years ago I dated a bird who's surname was Hunt, her dads name was Mike, try saying Mike Hunt real fast ...
Is he Portuguese? That's kinda common.
I'm Cajun, so my family's had some doozies. My mom's first cousin is named Lawless. He was a champion fiddler. And my paternal grandfather was named Minus (as in subtraction).
But yo, Delay...Dick Buttsavage? Cot-dayum.
Let's not forget Poong Poong and Ting Ting.
I have an auntie named Elodia, a name one doesn't hear of these days. Do a search for "Elodia Kane" and you'll see some of the CD's she has done.
I have two other aunties that I still call by their nicknames, even though I'm old enough to be proper. One is Tita (tee-tah), and her name is this because I could not say Linda when I was a kid. Thus, she has always remained "Tita". Different from the other Hawaiian slang word of "tita" (tit-ah), which would be your roughneck woman who can beat you and your brothers up, and ask your sister out for a date.
Then there's "Tutu". Her brothers and sisters called her "tutu" because she acted more like a grandmother than someone who was a young girl. That name stuck, and she became my Auntie Tutu instead of Auntie Sandy or Sandra.
Out of all of my cousins, the oddest one would be Kody, only because it sticks out. Everyone else is an Amber, Sarah, Kristina, Sean, Jonathan, Sherrie, etc.
Yianni, Demetri, Stelio, Georgia, Eleftheria, Constandina, Petro, Panaioti...etc
I guess the question is, what's the origin of the nickname "Dyke"?
It's a childhood nickname... I don't think anybody even knows for sure.
Yeah I had a Uncle Yummy who lived in Queens. He passed away in 2000 and in 2005 I'm producing a singer named "Yummy" from Queens. Go figure.
Is that a porn name or what?

YES! I have a cousin Ting Ting (Kristine). And my niece, Jing (Angela). I also have cousins Maricar (Maria Carmen) and Marichu (Maria something else). They're twins.
