Well I have the upper hand there.... I know why I got the nickname "Judy" the
same Aunt gave my cousin Arthur the nickname "Mick", another cousin named
Dudley is "Sandy", another named Elder is "Frank"!!!!!
My three sons - named Shayne is "Dick", named Justin is "JC", named Travis is
"Fish".
On my mother's side all the John's are Jack and all the Jack's are John!!!!

If you want to know about nick names....ask and Australian!!!!
