LOL! Well Mack’s real name doesn’t fit either. He’ll always be BigMack! My husband’s older brother’s call name is Mac, so nobody knows his real name either. And it’s funny because he’s known as Tadpole at work, because his uncle Frog already worked there. Men are so silly about giving each other unflattering nicknames at work!

He won’t mind being called Mack:)

He has always hung unflattering nicknames on people. Funny story.

There was a radio personality here years ago whose name was Modale Phipps. I can’t remember why it started but Mack started calling me Modale, and it slowly got shortened to Moe. The kids even called/still call me that, my grand babies are calling me that...

But anyway, when we were running the round up club here, several people called me that. I didn’t really appreciate it all that much at the time. I felt it was a family thing...is what I didn’t realize is the people calling me that didn’t realize that wasn’t my name:). Some boys who were in their 20’s or so called me that, and I felt it was a bit disrespectful, so one day I told them, you know I’d really like for you to call me by my name...they looked at me a bit puzzled and asked “well what is your name”...I said Becky...and they said, we thought it was Moe, you don’t look like a Becky, you look like Moe.

LOL...I was like Oh gawd, I LOOK like a MOE...yuk...all I can think of is Moe from the 2 stooges.

After all these years now tho, I don’t care what people call me:)

Beck
