I was a Little before (marriage #2) so for a while I was LLL. My nickname growing up was Tuzy. I became an Aunt Tuzy. Then I had a niece who could not say it right so I became a Saint Tuzy. And now my nieces are having their children I am a Great Saint. Pretty good huh? And most kids now call me Nor (short for Lenore) or Nor Nor. And since my step daughter has children I am also Nonnie Nor for my grandmother name. But you could probably say "hey Good looking" and my head would turn.
