Day 2: Nicknames

Oh my Nicknames.  My name is Jennifer.  The obvious nicknames would be Jenn.  I have never or will never go by Jenny.  Nothing against the name, I am just not a Jenny.  Of course you will hear most people call me Jenn.  It has a lot less syllables than Jennifer.  In soccer my team would call me Jennifire, when I was playing really well.  However, I do have a nickname that is kind of crazy, but has stuck with me somehow.  Even though it is strange and weird, I love it.  It is probably because it takes me back to childhood memories.  The nickname is Ferfer, with different varieties such as ferfy and ferf.  I know I know, weird.  I really do love it.   Now how did this name start?  The answer is I am not quite sure.  We had some close family friends and somehow their family and my family came up with it.  In fact,  this certain family called me Ferfer all the time there was a time when their mom referred to me as Jennifer and they had no idea who I was.  When their mom told them, "Uhh its Ferf"  they couldn't believe Ferfer wasn't my real name.  Hence then it stuck, and now all my extended family now calls me this.  And for the record I really do love it.  :)
