Somi can be Somi Bear, bear, little bit, little butt, and most recently gimpy or some variation of gimpy (ms gimpykins, Somi mcGimp gimp, gimpy bear, etc). But the most common that I use is little bit because she is so tiny.
Oh and gimpy has come about because she just had lp surgery and she was limping before and for the few steps she takes she definitely is now. It helps me to be less sad to joke about. So she is just my little gimp.
And Joli was the original bear or Joli bear. And we went through lots of versions of nick names with her but they were normally variations of her name. Jolikins, Joli mcJolison, other boring variations that sounded fun at the time...
And when I started with Joli Bear we all ended up being bear. Joli Bear, Ashley Bear (me), Kevin Bear (my bf, their daddy), Anna Bear (my roommate, their auntie). Lol.
