- those that stuck . . .
- Jules (Mom); Joles (Theo-- youngest brother); Jewels (Macken); never Jools
- Bules (Mitch...later Annie)
- Joie (Mommy)
- J R
- Ju-ju (because my little brother-- now the middle brother- couldn't pronounce 'Julia')
- Jole-ya and sometimes Joey-uh (Theo)
- Squirt (Robin)
- Young Gun (Birute)
- Little One (Birute)
- JUlia-JUlia-JUlia (Mr. Long)
- JUUUliA (Mr. Belcaster
- jUUUUUUUliE (Stella)
- . . . and those that didn't
- rinky-dinky, boo-bah, hoo-hah (in Mr. Long's moments of memory-loss; he would jab his temo-keeping cane towards the confused group of dancers; sad senile signs)
- Julie (Miss Patti- until I wrote her a letter-- signed Julia)
- the first time Theo wrote my name, he spelled it J-O-O-L-E-E-U ( 'U' for the "uh" sound, of course).
