    Suzie Q by my dad & Blondie by all my uncles. Suz was just a nick name he always called me & I don't know why. As he was walking me down the isle he said "Well Suz looks like here comes the bride" & he started crying. Blondie was cuz I had blonde, blonde hair when I was little & because of the cartoon character I guess!

    Some folks called me Jellybean because my middle name is Jennibee. One of my uncles still calls me that.

    My Aunt called me Nancy, and I don't know why....lol
    That isn't my name.

    My brother called me Queen of Sheba and my Dad called me a Primadonna.

    In all fairness when he wasn't mad at me he called me Girlie.

    My mom tends to call me "Babe", my dad called me "Tummy" when I was a kid but sweetly gave it up when I thought I might be sensitive about that kind of nickname (I'm not, but he's a good dad!). Now he calls me "Sis"
