What did you call me?

Some of you may know that we rarely call each other by our given names. Many nicknames are given, and some actually stick. So it is only natural that we have a bunch of nicknames for the boys already. I thought it would be fun to share and also to look back on years from now to see which ones continue on. But for now, if you hear me refer to Stoney, Weserley and Bucks, you know who I'm talking about.

Winston
Win, Winsley (his Win-Wes combo to make sure we got at least half of his name right), Winner (really WinR since his middle name is Robert), Winston Binston, Winny BinBin, Stone, Stoney Bones, Stoney Balogne (often shortened to just Stoney), Stoner Malone, The Brownheads (The Ws: Win & Wes)

Wesley
Wes, Weston (his Win-Wes combo), WeJam (his full name is Wesley James), Weserley, What Are You Eating? (you can always tell he found a piece of food/lint/dirt/spider by looking at his proudly pursed lips), Wesley Besley, Bam Bam, WesMan, The Brownheads (The Ws: Win & Wes)

Charles
Charlie, Chuckles, Chucklie, Bucklie, Charlie Buckle Barley, Bucks, Char-Buckle, C.Bucks, Doodlebug, Chuckle Boo, Boodles (really, every possible variation and combination of any of those), C.Ray (his middle name is Raymond), which then morphed into Crayon (thanks Jamie!)

This is awesome. My favorite is "What Are You Eating."
