Bojangles has many nicknames we call him. I was reminded of them by the surgeon this morning who asked me if there was anything else he needed to know before he went off to perform the surgery. I said, “Yes there is one last thing, Bojangles may be his full name but please call him Bo or puppy. He responds to those best. I only call him Bojangles when hes in trouble.” To which Dr. Danielson replied, “My mom does that too.”
So here are all the nicknames Bo has accumulated over the years:
Bo, Bo-licious, Boo-jee, Bo-nus, Bo-ster, Bobo, papa (accent on the last “a” otherwise it sounds like that Barbara Streisand song in Yentle), puppy, puppy power, pup, moosh, monster, monster truck, oso mio (my bear in spanish), oso feroz (ferocious bear in spanish).
Yes, he actually responds to them ALL, especially when they are said by me in only the way his mama can say it.
