The Cupcake Lady, Della Hoya, Miracle Boy, and the list goes on -- learn more about the nicknames Arctic residents are proud to have.

One of the residents with a fun nickname is Amelia Bodfish, an avid Atqasuk baker who makes all types of cupcakes and cakes. A few years ago, she would send birthday cakes regularly to family and friends in Utqiagvik. So much so that one of the pilots gave her a nickname the Cupcake Lady.

"I don't know their names and they probably don't know mine, so they just refer to me as the Cupcake Lady," she said about pilots. "I like the nickname. I am a self-taught baker and to be known as 'the Cupcake Lady' brings me a sense of accomplishment."
