Enjoy My Joy! (Bonus : Name the uncle!)

My sister just emailed me pictures of my new nephew, and I figured I'd share my joy with all of y'all! I'm-a-gonna be an uncle!


Now, does anyone have a good idea for a nickname I can teach the kid to refer to me by? Here are a few that are out because other family members have already gotten them:

Suave Dave
Crazy Aunt Mary
Peaches
Patch
Bomo
Beaner (dunno the origins, but that's my mom...)
Aun Tan (Aunt Ann)
Granny Annie
Mert
Uncle Bill
Red
Dake (that one is reserved for my younger cousins )
Spike
Sparkles
Shay-Shay

That's all of em I can think of, so play Name The Uncle! I'll also keep posting pics of the baby on this thread (I think I can afford the extra upload space )

Now, you see, you shouldn't have voted JJ because he has a cute sister, but rather you should have voted for him because he has a cute nephew-to-be!


EDIT: Err...the image isn't showing up...If you copy what's between the img tags, you can paste it in the address bar to view the image...Can anyone offer any help making this appear?

you got a backslash in the url =/

yeah, when my sister sent it it had a " ' " in there and was replaced with a \. I'll try deleting that image and rename it before uploading it again.

Congratulations! It's a great feeling ain't it. I missed out on all the exams and ultrasounds of my daughter, so I'm looking forward to kid #2.

Congrats.....


:w:

Aw congrats

(And of course congrats to Mommy too)



Just wait till you're a great-uncle. I became a great-aunt at 28....I'm fairly certain nobody should evah, evah, be a great- ANYTHING before they're about 40

As for the nick....what's wrong with JJ?

Congratulations junglejake !

there will be alot of
and alot of this going on and and when things get tough you can always :bnghd: do this.
Anyway and best of times for all the family

AAAWWW...JungleJake....CONGRATS...

i would go with "PEACHES".... Uncle Peaches...hehehe ..thats fun

Problem is, Uncle Peaches is already taken by my Uncle Pete. I need a new one

helen670: So I've heard. Thankfully for me right now, I'm in Chicago and she lives in Hawai'i. I don't have to deal with it so much, though I do get the occasional email or phone call. Her husband Kenji has to deal with it

Thanks everyone for the congrats! I really didn't expect this to mean as much to me as it does. Then again, I didn't expect to feel the bond for my brother-in-law that I did when I first met him at the wedding. The dude is awesome

Uncle JJ (jay jay )...lol


or Uncle Pen (cause youre a writter)

How about “boots”…I always liked that nickname.

Congrats JJ.

Choosing a nick name is tough. Maybe check out a online name generator.

Or (s)he could call me Uncle A-hole 'cause I'm a fighter

Yet another chapter from my sister's belly from Uncle No-Credit!


If you look on the second one, on the right just to the upper left of the head you can see the engagement ring!
