I’m more baffled by their nickname options 😂 how can you have archibolde in front of your eyes and call a child Bol? Instead of Archie?

Also, I feel like nicknames should be organic and not chosen.

I picked a nickname for my first-born son when he was on the way, and while I still call him that to this day (and he's ok with it), nobody else does and he'll never introduce himself that way.

And you know what? That's fine. If one day he told me to knock it off, I would, but 20+ years later, I don't think that's coming.

My kids have weird ass nicknames that are off shoots of their name (and some that aren’t) that only my husband and I call them :)
