Nick names - what's the big idea!?

Honestly if you really care about the nickname, you are better off picking it out yourself and calling your child that from a very early age. My father in law was super immature about our first son’s name and went out of his way to mispronounce it all the time, then started coming up with these super lame nicknames. His nickname is [name]Ace[/name] and everybody calls him [name]Ace[/name] so we just ignored him and he finally stopped his ridiculousness. My son has a longer name that is authentic but extremely underused and my FIL had an obvious problem with it. Since everyone knows him by [name]Ace[/name] I really doubt anyone will try to call him other names now. [name]Ace[/name] truly fits him so well!
