schellen:

schellen is German for bells. I used to play percussion in uni CCA so it kinda stuck since most of the time, it's not taken. My avatar....need to explain meh?

Hi,

Your nick is one of the many that I wondered about, cuz when you say it out loud, it has a nice 'ring' to it

Thx for sharing

Eagle-Ladybird:

Eagle is the nick for my son, and Ladybird, for my daughter. We don't really use these nicks on the children, and so they don't know them.


It started off in the early days when my son was still an infant, sitting in the carseat at the back. When we drive, he will fall asleep so often, that me and wife developed this \"talking in codes\" : \"eagle's staring in space\"; \"eagle's flying low\"; and finally \"eagle's down, eagle's down\" when he actually dosed off.

And when our lovely girl came along, the same \"codes\" were used in the car ride, and she's the Ladybird, as she somehow develop a liking for this ladybird stuff toy.

Today, we hardly use such \"codes\" as they hardly fall asleep in car ride . . . not even our long drive from Cameron to Singapore

Hi Eagle-Ladybird,

Thx for sharing, yours too, is an unusual nick and thats really a sweet story.

Yes, I guess its common for parents to speak in codes. We do too, but nothing fancy, just use phrases like 'our friend' or we spell out certain words cuz DS knows what we'er talking about.

Never knew you had a great sense of humour, autumnbronze!

wow! you guys have impressive nicks but for myself it was just a name that I pluck from nowhere. It was the first 2 words that came to my mind and I just use it. Never give it much thought.

Hi peapot, your name is impressive, even though you \"plucked it out of nowhere.\" Compared to my name, Muffins, peapot is very imaginative.
