Nick Names

Today, I thought I’d talk about BoDee’s nick names. Here’s a list with a little description next to each explaining the name:
Mini Pig: BoDee snorts a lot, he sounds very piggish! And he’s little, so Mini Pig!

Explo-Dee: BoDee’s brutal bowel movements when we first got him are where this name came from. He was exploding from the backdoor, hence, Explo-dee was born.

Chirpy Boy: This one came from an episode of The Simpsons. Bart hatches two eggs he believes are birds, they turn out to be lizards. He names one Bart Jr. and the other Chirpy Boy.

Puppet: Jonda accidently called him this once and it just stuck.

One (or Little One): BoDee’s “Momma Erica” gave him the name “One”, so of course he gets to keep it. We’ve sort of morphed it in to “Little One” for our own use.

Garbage Face: “Garbage Face” is something I’ve called Jonda for a long time, it migrated to BoDee somehow and stuck.

Stink Pig: There are dozens of “Pig” variations in open rotation. Stink Pig is used often because anyone who has a Boston knows they have AWFUL gas. Just…terrible.

Bug: Jonda called Jay “Bug” all the time and it carried over to BoDee when he arrived. We like to keep things like this going so it keeps JayDee in our memories.

Bubba: Jonda calls him Bubba sometimes, no reason why…it just rolls out.

Cowboy: BoDee is not a cowboy in the traditional sense. He eats grass all the time, so I guess the name should be Cowmale for clarity, but try saying Cowmale a few times and tell me that it sounds better then Cowboy.

Turd Tail: Thanks Jermey!

The Great Boudini: (sounds like Houdini): Thanks Ian!

Demon Dog: BoDee is only “Demon Dog” at very specific times; when he’s being bad, when he’s running around like a crazy person, or when he’s making his pig sounds at someone in particular. Normally it’s Mark.

Bundle Boy: When we ride in the car in the winter BoDee has a special blanket that stays in the car so he can be bundled up, he loves his bundling blanket :)

These are just the main names we call him, I call him something different just about every day. “Hey, stink ass, get over here” “yo little buddy, what are you doing?” “Hey, dog breath…get outta that cat food” and so on and so on. I’m also totally into calling him some suggested names as well, so feel free to toss um out there in the comments section of this dohicky.
