Nicknames

Again, we were in the car having one of our most interesting, but not very profound, conversations. It was about nicknames. Lately, we've been talking about what it means to be a teenager. Namely, that your age has the sound "teen" in it. And, today we also talked about "tweens." Trevor said that the word "tween" sounds like "twit." I begged to differ and reminded him never to call anyone a twit. He said it would be OK if it were their nickname. For example, he said, if his nickname were Stinky, it would be OK if people called him Stinky. I said I hoped his nickname is never Stinky.

Then, he went to list his current nicknames...

Trev
Trevdev
Devtrev

He also noted that Trevor and Devin share those last two nicknames...
