My mom (early 60s) has a hard time remembering the names of anime, or sometimes chooses to use her own nicknames for them. I have always enjoyed sharing these and sometimes quizzing people on what the original title might've been.
Here's a nice long list of every name I've recorded, ordered from most opaque to most obvious, followed by the actual name of the series. Feel free to comment how many of these anime you got, and how many nicknames/misrememberings you had to look at before you got it.
Optional drinking game: take a shot every time you see "girl(s)"

Well, read, but I figured that since it had an anime adaptation that I might as well include it.
