Day 19

DAY 19: NICKNAMES YOU HAVE AND WHY YOU HAVE THEM

Assuming today's question implies that I have been nicknamed because of something I smell like, look like, act like, etc., I will tell you now, I don't recall ever being nicknamed for any of those reasons.  All of my nicknames sound similar enough to my actual name that you don't have to be told why I have them.  So, rather than writing about why I have them, I'm going to tell who gave them to me.  

(Disclaimer: I don't currently go by every one of these nicknames.  This is just a list of every nickname I can recall throughout my life. Green names are current.)

In no particular order......just as they come to me.......

Dani (everyone calls me Dani)

Daniyelli (my brothers)

Danschpelli (my brother Ty)

Dano (my brother Teryn)

(Tyson calls me Dano now too)

Danisaur (my friend Blake) 
Dano-Whamo (my sister-in-law Camille)

Dani-O (a lot of people)

Daniyelli Jelly Belly (my brother Ty)

Phani (my friend Pheather (Heather))

(My high school volleyball team called me Phani)

Dizzle (an old boyfriend's family)

Dani B (another old boyfriend's family)

Wubba (my brother Ty)

Pooner (Tyson)

Lil' Hank (my brother Brandon)

(Hank is short for Henrie.  Everyone calls my brother Brandon "Hank")

Dani Marie (high school friends)

(my middle name is actually Renè, not Marie)

Dani Reenie (Tyson)

(his knock-off of Renè)

Fandango (my dad)

Tiny (my dad)

Dan (my Jr. High principal, Mr. Coleman)

Phatty Dani (high school friends)

OK, so I guess I do have some nicknames that have nothing to do with my real name.  They have no particular rhyme or reason, though.  Just nicknames.
