Was it ever established as to why Michael detests being called Mikey?? I had this theory that he wasn't always an older child & perhaps he was responsible for the death of his sibling?? Who used to call him Mikey?? Just thinking out loud.

I always thought he just didn't like it for the sake of not liking it. Like how Victor hated being called Vic. People only called them those names because it only made Michael and Victor annoyed, encouraging more.
I'm not sure if what I just said made any sense.
I feel like it goes a bit deeper for Michael - considering he is extremely elusive as to his upbringing and his family (mom & pops).....and I would think 'Mikey' is a nickname that maybe his parents used? Or another family member? Since it's a youthful kind of nickname. So, maybe someone else using it brings up some bad memories perhaps? Just a thought.Quote:

Yeah - not sure of him being an only child.....my guess is that he is now, but wasn't always.....especially after Kelly stating 'he doesn't fit the only child type'.....Quote:

Could be he was called that as a Child. Maybe now that he is an adult, he doesn't want to be called his child name. Like my Brother was always Donnie. When he got older he goes by Don and hates it when he is called Donnie, because of that reason.
