The Evolution of a NICKname

When Nicholas was first learning to talk, he tried to call himself "Nicky" - since that's what we all called him. But it would come out "Ninny". So then we started calling him Ninny, too. Then his cousin, JJ, started calling him "Ninny Muggins" - a reference from the movie Elf when Buddy gets called a "cotton-headed ninny muggins" by the other elves. So now it has evolved to just "Muggins".
