Lgbtq nicknames
One of the most frequent questions I’ve heard from prospective LGBTQ+ parents is “What should our kids call us?” I therefore began the Mombian LGBTQ Parental Names Project in to gather examples of our parental names. Here are just a few of the names — and the stories behind them — that more than people have now anonymously shared.
There are, unsurprisingly, lots of “Mom,” “Mommy,” “Mama,” “Dad,” “Daddy” and “Papa,” occasionally with a first name or initial added.
Sometimes names can change, as in this family:
“We started parenting first as foster parents. … In the last ten years we&#;ve had 16 kids come and go through our home and four stay forever. Sometimes I am just Mama and sometimes Meggie and sometimes both and increasingly ‘MOM’ as our adopted kids obtain older.”
Sometimes, the kids chose the names, accidentally or on purpose:
“Our son chose to call me mommo at about 18 months antique. … I called him baby-o and buddy-o, so I think that’s why I became mom-o. Our daughter just called us what my son already did.”

Parents in Florida will have to sign a consent form before their school-aged child can be called by a name other than the one on their birth certificate. That includes if a child wants to be called a nickname, or if a transgender child wants to use a label that aligns with their gender identity. Orange and Seminole County School parents own already received the forms. Every district in the state will be required to create such a form because of the expanded Parental Rights in Education or Don’t Utter Gay law. Under that law, students are not allowed to be called by their preferred pronouns or use bathrooms that align with their gender identity. In an example given to OCPS Superintendent Maria Vazquez by the Florida Department of Education, a child named Robert would possess to get permission to be called Bob or Bobby. A child given the name Robert at birth but who is transitioning and now goes by Roberta or Bobbi, would also need to be given permission to be called Roberta or Bobbi. Gov.
