    First time doing it in a while, and it’s a miss.

    Spoilers

    I was so sure it was museums. Moma, Sisi, Met, and Dada. And when I got one away, I thought there must just be one other they I didn’t recognise. “Royal”, I tried, but nope…

      I was stuck in the same dead end...

      …and it took me a while before I made the MLB connection. Non-US players are not going to be happy with today’s puzzle.

        Yup that was me. Never had a hope of this one. And I’m usually better than most non-Americans at picking up US sport references.

      spoiler

      I went for museums too. Before that I tried for something like common word pairs: frick and frack, angel and devil, sugar and spice, dada and mama. And I agree with @bowserbasher@lemmy.world above, that dad and mom aren’t nicknames.

    Fairly simple if you got yellow and green first, I think. I would never have gotten blue. However…

    Tap for spoiler

    I don’t agree with the group title for purple. Sis and bro works but mum and dad are not what I would call nicknames for those. That’s just what you call them.
