My daughter always called my son "Brother" and at 27 (her) and 30 (him) she still does. When she was about 4 we asked her if she knew his name. She said, "Yes, it's Stephen." I asked, "Why don't you call him Stephen?" Her response. , "I LIKE to call him Brother!!"
They are 2? years apart so they were in elementary, middle and HS at the same time. In middle school my son's friends began to tease him about his sister calling him "Brother". His response....."I AM her brother.....what's so dumb about that??"
My DD's name is Krissie......close to Sissy. We read lots of Berenstein Bears too.
