Today's word is "sobriquet" ... SOH-bruh-key ... a nickname. (Dictionary.com)
Hey
Have you ever had a nickname?
A sobriquet just right?
Little Blue-Jean-Johnny,
Or My Pumpkin Delight?
How 'bout Betty Bee Bop,
Or Annie-Get-Your-Gun?
Some are quite endearing,
Others, not much fun.
I think that our nicknames,
Should be ours alone to choose,
Then they would be appropo,
And nobody would lose.
