Nicknames

 - by Brittany

If you’ve talked to Jameson recently, you may notice, everyone has a new name. We are all characters in his favorite movie. It’s very consistent, and he will frequently ask, “Where’s Slinky going?” Correct response, “To work.” When there’s crying, you may hear, “What happened to Mr./Mrs. Potatohead?” And, for any other question you will hear, “Hey Rex!” Have you figured out the names? Here’s a translation…

Jameson is of course Buzz Lightyear

Kevin= Slinky dog

Brittany= Rex

Ella= Mr. or Mrs. Potatohead (he changes between the two)

Taylie (one of his best friends)= Jessi

Kylie (his other best friend and betrothed)= Woody

Lilah (their baby sister)- Bullseye

I frequently hear the question, “Hey Rex, Woody and Jessi coming over today?” Yesterday, when they came over, Jameson was at the door before they were out of the car. He opened the door and yelled as loud as he could, “Woody, Jessi, it’s me! Buzz Lightyear.” He was so excited to see his friends. And they respond to their names and call him by his. So if you’re here and start to get really confused, now you know the translation.
