Manny calling Greg bubby.
Bubby is the nickname that Manny gave to Greg Heffley when he couldn't pronounce "brother". Manny still uses the word to this day. According to Greg, the nickname given to him is the most irritating thing about Manny in Diary of a Wimpy Kid and its movie adaptation.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid[]
During Greg's birthday in a flashback, one of Greg's friend reads out "Bubby" from a birthday present which Greg dismisses as a mistake, avoiding any recognition of the nickname.[1][2]
Later during the The Wizard of Oz play, Manny directly shouts out "Bubby" when he sees Greg dressed as a tree. Greg deflects the embarrassment to Archie Kelly.[3] The next day, Greg is relieved after he sees Archie getting harrassed by bullies over the nickname.[4][5]
Rodrick Rules[]
In Rodrick Rules, Manny destroys Greg's Video game system, and Greg said that he would let him have it, but he couldn't do anything while his mom was standing there. She said she will have a “talk” with Manny and he made a tinfoil ball with a toothpick and says “I'm sowwy Bubby”.
