Rory: Daddo
Becca: MamaDaddo
Grandpa Paul: Used to be called "Bapa" but now he simply calls him "Ball"
Grandma Margaret: MaMa. Straight up. I think it's the ma from grandma and the ma from margaret. I tried to deny this name for a month, but finally gave in. Ivar calls my mom Mama, and I am MamaDaddo.
Grandma Marlene: Mimi and MimiPapa (along the same lines as MamaDaddo...)
Grandpa Madison: Papa
Aunt Annika: Auntie Unka
Svea: Weigh-a
Mara: Mada
Aunt Lisa: Eesa!
Kirby, Toby, Ruby: B!
Josie: Osie
Maddie: Maddie (perfectly pronounced)
Aunt Louie: Auntie Lu Lu
Uncle Jake: Yak
When we look through the pictures from our trip to the farm (which happens daily) Ivar delights in the pictures of him and Jake and Louie by the tractor and the cows. The learning from this is that if you want a kid to adore you, and babble your name repeatedly as they go down for their morning nap, try to get a few snapshots of you by a tractor and cows.
