Lainey with a Y

What’s the story behind your nickname?

Right before my husband and I were married, his sister passed away suddenly after giving birth to her second child. She left behind a newborn and a three year old daughter. I instantly had two children I raised for 6 months while our brother in law got back on his feet. My name is Elaine but my three year old niece couldn’t pronounce that, so she always reversed it and called me Lainey.  It stuck!  After that and for almost 30 years, my husband, and all his family called me Lainey.
