Hi, My Name Is...

So I’ve been in Minnesota for about 5 days now and I must say it is something that I really needed. Taking a break from the monotonous days in Miami, having to feel absolutely no expectations from anybody, and not having anyone I know besides my extended family around is quite a great feeling. And of course getting to hang out with all me cousins who I don’t get to see as often as I’d like is always a blast. And then there’s Arman: the genius baby of my cousins James and Mahtab. With this new feature on the blogspot of uploading photos, I think I will be doing it more often. Sort of like a “picture of the day” sorta thing. We’ll see how that goes. I’m using my uncle’s computer right now so I’m probably gonna have to take one of his pictures. Ha, what an awesome kid. I mean just look at him.


Anywho, besides the frequent discussions on the mysteries of life and the lessons learned therein, my cousin brought up the subject of nicknames given me in the past. I think I overwhelmed him with the myriad of names I’ve been given throughout the 20 years of my life. So we both decided it should be posted on my blog for all to see. So go ahead and choose whichever one you prefer…cause I answer to all of them depending on who uses which. So here goes, numbered for ease of reading and in no particular order:

1. Mo
2. Mo-Mo
3. Moo
4. Moo-Moo
5. Moo-Man
6. Mooney
7. Moonibaby
8. Cow-Face
9. Mooooo…nib
10. Muniba
11. Moonbeam
12. Meat-Head
13. String bean
14. Bob
15. Twino
16. Mr. T
17. Nib
18. Nibs
19. Nib-Nib
20. Niblet
21. Nibbles
22. Nibbles and Bits
23. Nip-Nip
24. Binum
25. Momar
26. Spider-Man
27. Parker
28. Voozh Head
29. Little Drummer Boy
30. Mun to the ib
31. Mu to the nib
32. Munibian
33. Munibi
34. Munibo
35. Money
36. Monet
37. Muad-Ib (not sure how it’s spelled…that guy from Dune)
38. Monkey Boy
39. Moonster
40. Nibster
41. Munizzle

That’s all I can think of right now. Wow, I didn’t even realize there were so many. If anyone can think of any new ones, or any that I might have left out, feel free to leave comments. I’m always interested to hear of new nicknames. As soon as I feel like nobody can come up with something I haven’t heard before, I get something new. And the ones above are from people who can pronounce my name correctly. I’d have a whole other list of ways my name has been pronounced incorrectly. But I don’t think that would be as fun.
