To object to being called Tramp by a 10 year old?

My nephew began calling me tramp around 2 years ago, much to the ammusment of his mother. I ignored it assuming he'd get bored of it but he hasn't and now calls me it as if it's my actual name. It's got to the point were my sister tells him they're going to "Tramp's house" and he even wrote "auntie Tramp" in my Christmas card. Nobody bats an eyelid when he says it now. Earlier today I told my mother that the name is getting on my tits and I'm going to tell him to stop. She said I was being a drama queen and starting "something over nothing". My sister has since found out and has gone off in a massive strop over it.
Is it too much to ask that my nephew calls me by my name? (or at least a nicer nickname!?)

Out of interest OP, are you the family scapegoat/black sheep? It seems really horrible the way your mum has kind of closed ranks with your sister about it, and they're basically saying you should just put up with something you don't like. I wouldn't like it either and would have said something long ago. I would let them have their little moans and tantrums about it and just ignore them.

What a cheeky little shit, I'd be telling him to pack it in don't respond to anything he says until he does... And as for your sister, if be having some strong words face to face with her Angry
