Why Neina?

When reading this Blog some of you might wonder where the nick name Neina comes from. Here's the story:
My mother is named Nita after her maternal grandmother O'Nita Lewis VanNoy. My mother's grandmother was called Nein (pronounced knee-n) or Neinie (pronounced knee-knee) by her grandchildren and great grandchildren. My mothers plan was to be called Nein by her grandchildren also. For some reason it was hard for us to call her Nein since we all associated this with our great grandma so it morphed into Neina. Usually grandma Neina and often just grandma. She is still pulling for Nein though.
