Creative Names for an Aunt

Hi T.,
I have a sister whom i am very close with and is more like my mother than a sister so when i had my baby i thought the word Aunt was to plain for her, we are part italian so we looked up the word and found Zia for aunt and my daughter calls he ZiZi.

Auntie, Tia , ... depends on the Aunts name too.

We speak spanish in our house and we use the word "tia"

in yiddish, Tanta is aunt and we use it for my daughetrs great -aunt

Tia (pronounced Thea) is the spanish word for aunt.

Thea means aunt in Greek & Theo means uncle in Greek.

they can just call her Thea (which my child does) or they can call her Thea (insert name). example: Thea Christine

Hi T.,
My son calls my mom (his grandma of course) TITI pronounced (TEE TEE) and I think it is the cutest nickname. He came up with it all by himself. We talk in spanish at the house and abuela seemed to be to hard for him to say, so one day he just called her titi, and titi it is...
hope this helps

Hi T.,

When my niece was little we could not get her to call me by my name. So my brother remembered my nickname my father gave me as a little girl which was "pooh". Now I am Aunt Pooh to all my nieces, nephews and friends children and its been that for 15 years now. Good luck with the name.

Tia, Thats what my little girl calls my bestfriend.

One of the kids in my daycare calls his aunt "Antie ____". It sonds cute because he says it with a short "o" sound instead of "ant". I guess this wouldn't be so cute if her name is long and has many sylables. But it sure sounds cute when he says it.

Sometimes they evolve based on the woman's name, like my sister's best friend's name starts with an M... my neice called her Auntie M and sometimes just M for short.

I think it's really cute when the nieces/nephews pick the names. In my family we have Aunt Na-Na (N.), Aunt Fer (Jennifer), Aunt Tonya (Tonya), and Moppy (Stephanie who was like a nanny for a while so I think it was a form of Mommy)

weird names confuse kids Try Aunt or Antie with her name or nick name
Ihad a grand aunt we call Auntie or was it Aunt T Her name was May Bell but went by T. She raised my dad after his mom died so maybe the T was from aunt and theyjust used the T
Give your kid a break, use a simple name. We alo used the customn of call our parents' adult friends Miss then their first name

The kids I was nannying called me Tia. It is Spanish for aunt. And now my niece, nephew, and best friend's kids call me tia. People liked it so much that even my mom now calls me tia.

My kids had difficulty saying Aunt Jamie and so they call her A.J. So if it was Aunt Pam, it would be A.P. etc. Kind of weird but it worked for us.

My daughter always called her aunts, Auntie when she was little.

Hi T.,
I would suggest looking up Aunt in several different languages...maybe of your own heritage...good luck & God Bless!
