Even stranger - why is John called 'Jack', Elizabeth 'Betty', Margaret 'Peg' and Henry 'Hal'?
The reasons probably originated centuries ago!
Most names ending in 'son' mean 'son of' as does 'Mac' (Scots), O' (Irish) and Welsh names beginning with 'P' like Price (Ap Rice); Pritchard (Ap Richard).
Addison has several nick names.

I call him Addison mainly, but have been known to call him other things in the middle of the nite. Smile

Tyler and Hubbie call him Bubbie or AJ.

My Mum and Sister call him Addy!

Mory - I am glad there is another Addison out there, I havent seen any before.

I knew the meaning was "Adam's Son", which doesnt have any relevance to us, but Tyler isnt a Tiler either...so go figure.
