Brothers are the worst, Annette! One of mine used to call me Hector and still does sometimes - but I have very little to do with him anyway! After a stupid rhyme. He used to make it sound so insulting: Hector Protector was dressed all in green; Hector Protector was sent to the Queen. The Queen did not like him, Nor more did the King; So Hector Protector was sent back again. I wish I had nice siblings!!!

Brothers!! So we have been christened quite a few things by them between us all, and all very flattering naturally... I do admit though I had a little chuckle about "skin and blister"- sorry for being a traitor there for a moment Annette... I have never heard that rhyme Hezz, it sounds like a pretty random thing for your brother to have based a nick name on. Boys are a mystery and always will be, ha ha!!

Its nothing to what we used to call each other when we were kids ;D. We do have a giggle about how horrible we were to each other, i often remind him about the time he threw a piece of dried dog poop at me , usually when we have a big get together and his posh in-laws are around ;D, we love each other really.

I think he started it because my real name is Heather. Not much he could do with that, so.............. shrug! Skysmum, my other brother and I used to have cow-pat and sheep pellet fights. ;D Bored kids in the sheep-yards will think up any sort of mischief!

I'm an only girl. My terrible brothers used to, and still call me Ugly. As in Ugly Blister, from the story of Rindercella and the Ugly Blisters who slopped her dripper and met the pransome hince (Cinderella who dropped her slipper and met the handsome prince). Yes, ha ha boys, very funny!

Poor you Stace... We are the other way round. I have 2 sisters and 1 brother. People used to feel sorry for him being the only boy but he really really didn't need their pity! He was an absolute beast to us at times!!

My brother called me Sarah sausage and shortened it to sausage because I hated it so much! I don't like most of the names I've been called- nearly all hair colour related obviously but now my sister calls me Sez, and various lovely friends call me Sadge... I worked somewhere once where there was another Sarah so they called me Joanne not to mix us up which was completely insulting and I left after 3 weeks!! My poor parents tried so hard to give us names that couldn't be shortened as well, ha ha!! In my brothers first job when he was an apprentice mechanic all the apprentices got given different names. My brother, Matt, was named Trevor, I enjoyed saying "whatever! Trevor!" ;D The other lad he worked with was named Bob even though his name is Alex They were weird. I've never really had a nickname as such, I get called Rach sometimes which I don't mind ;D An ex friend used to call me Rae, oh and when I was younger my dad called me Racy (race-eee)
