GTKY: What do you call your other half?

[Susan0utLoud]

Do you have a special name for your significant other?

What's their special name for you?

Tell us!

[Susan0utLoud]

I call DH Peaches or honey. Mostly peaches.

He calls me peanut or honey. Mostly peanut.

I'm thinking we're weird.

[athn64]

Lol good question.

Ever since we got married I call him Husband. Jujube sometimes, sweetheart on occasion.


He calls me sunrise, or my name

[microworm]

We have a couple.

We call each other Clovie. It's a long story.

He also calls me Zeeb or Zeebie. When we met I was wearing a black and white striped shirt, so it was Zebra for awhile and then morphed.

[Deleted]

Daddy... But not like that. Ever since J was born, I'm always saying Daddy this or Daddy that. Other then that, I'll call him honey.

He calls me Ambuns or Mommy, again not like that.

[scout251]

I mostly call DH hun or honey. He calls me bean. Or we just use our regular names.

Aaahhhh, this explains a lot.

[meggypoo1]

I call him Muffin or Muffin Husband
He calls me Honey and maybe 1% of the time cuteness

Sometimes we call each other mud puddle. This is a weird long story

[emmygirl]

He calls me Galinda, random and don't ever remember how it started so many years ago.
I call him bunny. Like honey bunny. He hates it which makes me like it a bit more. I think he loves it deep down 😜

Like in Wicked?

[Doll15]

I call him babe or Joey
He calls me doll, sometimes doll face. If he is trying to get my attention he will say Nik.

He is far more affectionate than I.

That's probably far more fitting but no. It had something to do with people calling me Melinda in high school, not even my name, and he turned it into galinda somehow. I am pretty witchy though so it works ha

[emmagk]

We call each other Babe

I am ashamed

[kittyriot]

Get ready for pukefest....

When we were young and overly cheesy he started calling me kitten, I called him tiger.

These days he calls me chicken, I call him squash.

Generally nick names abound in our house.

We call O, little kitten, peanut, littlest love...

There's more (for all of us) but I can't remember them all!

[emmagk]

Oh also plonker and dippo when he's being dumb

Ah yes.

[becole]

I call him by his first name which is why our son sometimes does as well.
Pet names are... not my thing.

[activebaby]

I do the same - first name. Ds will call Dh his name. I would feel so uncomfortable calling Dh a pet name. I feel totally okay calling the kids little cute names.

[jennyinheaven]

We call each other a made up word, Deets, or a version of that like deetle pants, deedle dee etc. I know weird, I think I started but not sure. We have been together almost 10 years and I feel like we started doing this pretty early on.

[lrmrtn]

We are boring. Usually just hon or honey. I use his name only in public or if he's not responding. I'll call him Daddy when DS asks for something and I don't feel like getting it, so I'll be like Daddy, can you get DS juice?

I call DS love or lovey. We both call DS Boogee. It started from a weird sound he used to make as a baby and then just morphed from there. It's at the point that DS refers to himself as Boogee too so we probably need to stop!

[athn64]

If we are doing kid nicknames. DD1 is noodle. Short for Noodle Butt. And DD2 is Little Mouse.

IG. I always wondered what your IG handle meant.

[microworm]

DS1 is called Worm 95% of the time in our house. I also call him Bubs, Bubsy, Sweet Pea.

DS2 is Turtle or Turt for short. DS1 calls him Bay O (short for baby Owen). I also call him Chunk. Or just "O."

[microworm]

We are clearly big fans of cutesy names.

[bliz1712]

We just use our first names or say Mom or Dad when talking about us to the kids. No nicknames here. We are boring.

[lecky11]

Occasionally I call him dear, but usually I just call DH by his nickname he goes by. If G hears me use his full name, she starts calling him Don Don. He usually calls me babe or baby.

G is: Greens, Greensie, Greenie, Green Beans, Beans, Beanie, Greenie Beanie and I call her Boobie

A is: Addie, Ads, mini DH, and I call her Addie Girl or Boogie

[lulu]

No sweet names for DH and I....he's not the most romantic and would probably die if I called him anything lovely and die quicker if I made him choose a name for me.

But the kids have gone by nicknames since birth and they are so natural to us but so odd when I type them...

DD1 - poops magoo (god knows where that comes from but at aged 9 she actually cried because I called her brother poops one night and she was really hurt as that's been her name since a baby!!

DS - P Diddy...his initials are PD and he's wee so diddy fits.

DD2 - Miss Mouse...because she's like a mouse and quite prim and proper like the mouse from a CBeebies programme.

[emmygirl]

DH and I call DD Cheese Bo. We joked around while pregnant that that's what we were going to name the baby so we still refer to her as that.
Otherwise to her face I call her Olive, baby girl, princess O, or ya ya which is what her friends call her and some teachers at school since they couldn't pronounce it yet.
