Happy Sunday mamas!! I thought to start a thread about nicknames about what you mamas and family members call our little ones. Join in and share your little one's nickname and perhaps the meaning behind it! Have fun and happy Sunday!

Since I found out I was pregnant I've called my son Dimples. I thought he was going to have dimples but he didn't get them lol but I still call him this! I love my Baby Dimples!

My sons name is Elijah and I call him elijlove. Lol I basically replaced the end of his name ah with love. So hes my little elijlove.

rachiec773

We started calling Sadie munchkin, now she has many variations of that for nicknames- munchkie, munch, munchkie-moo, moosie, moo girl haha

AKOL0

Started off with First Mate while pregnant. Then I started calling her Princess Buttercup (I was Princess Butterbean). Since then I have called her a bunch of random nicknames. Lately I've been calling her baby love. It usually changes every few weeks. Idky. But I've been trying to be better about calling her her name.

My hub calls her Goobey Girl and her grandpa calls Peewee(I hate). Her grandma doesn't call her anything and her mamaw hasn't actually met her to give her a name.

Love it! We call Henry lots of things, but like @AKOL0 said we've been working on calling him by his name more.

I call him Hen or Hen Hen, plus lots of random cutesy stuff like baby doll and pumpkin bear and nugget( his in-belly name pretty much from the start) Paul(dad) calls him little man and other similar names..My 5 sisters have a ton of names, including Henny Hoozles(no idea what started that) My dad calls him Hank.

It's funny how many random things we come up with to call them. Amazing that they ever learn their real names

we have called our Bella -our wee girl, and Bella boo since birth. Our wee girl is because she was in the nicu and lost so much weight so she's a little behind others babies her age so I think she will always be our little wee one! And Bella boo just came naturally and isn't really changing her name too much that way she still learns it! She's starting to turn her head in response to her name and I love it!!!

My husband and son are both named David. We call the baby Birdie. He squaks like a little bird and makes cute little bird noises so that's the nickname that stuck.

ashleyk985

My lo was chicken nugget & Baby Ruth in the womb. Now it's quite a few. My parents say baby girl & my grandad calls all of his granddaughters doll baby. And he's 95 and my name is Ashley & the lo is Ashtyn, so he just says Ashley #2. Her fathers family call her AK #2 bc we have the same initials. I call her Banana pudding, nilla wafer, butter bean and other food references lol.

Youngwithra

We call our LO "doodie" lol he's name is Marquis Jr... People call him MJ

lovermyboys3

Our little boys name is Reed and we call him Schmeed, and bug. Our older Sons nickname is bean...so we have bean and bug

Savanna111911

My baby's name is Scarlett. Mostly I just call her by her name but I will occasionally use pet names or nicknames. Recently I've been calling her pinky.

KAR8706

We usually call LO by his name, sometimes I say his full name so he hears it. Lately SO has been calling him Zekers the squeakers since he likes to randomly squeal. I say hey kid or kiddo to him but otherwise we dont have very many nick names for him yet.

randa923

Our sons name is Owen and we call him Owen-ator. My husband likes to call him Mr. Farts a lot lol. His initials are OOK so my mom calls him Ookie. I hate it and I told her that, but she's been calling him that since he was in the womb so there's no stopping her now. I've been trying to make sure I say his name a lot more lately since he will turn his head to it. I love that he recognizes his name.

mars420

We call my daughter squirrel ir squirrel girl, sometimes boogie bear but mostly baby squirrel lol. She was so squirmy when she was a newborn and would try to hold her head up so we would say she was being very squirrelly lol and it stuck. she does get her real name alot too so she is responding to it as well and it makes me so happy to see she knows her name is Elodie

babymorgan72015

We called her peanut in the belly so now we call her peanut butter cup. Daddy calls her Edie & Monkey and I call her E-E, Miss E, Nugget, & Nugnug. As a newborn she earned herself the nickname baby fomo (fear of missing out) because she won't nap when we have company.

sams1girl

When we first found out about our son, it was el frijole (the bean)....

We've since named him Jacob...lol

But he also goes by...

Boo-boo
Doo-doo brown (my husband came up with that one)
Bubs (I called him this the first time I held him)
My mil calls him papito
And my mom calls him...jake from State Farm..

VToman

We call our Isabella Izzy, Bella, Izzyboo, Izzybelly, Munchkin, Cheeks, Smiley, and Princess. She was Ahab before we knew she was a girl.

One of my friends calls her Izzy G because her middle name is Grace.

reneecarmenn

Called my LO peanut when I was pregnant and now I call him nugget, Bubba, papito, bub, and my little love bug. I call him Bubba more though!

awiggins011

My son's name is Zion. I call him Chunk cause he's a cubster or sometime Super Chunk cause of his Halloween costume. A lot of my family calls him little dude or just dude. I'm pretty sure he thinks those are his name cause he doesn't respond to Zion

rasmith23

Bubba, Bubby or monkey. I called my nephew Bubba when he was little, my SO's son was Bubby, so when we had Max those names were passed down to him. Daddy calls him Big Boy a lot too

mrssylvester

Squirmy McWigglesworth, Squirmy for short, is what Daddy calls him. I call our lo baby boo, boo boo, or boo bear. We also sometimes call him Ethan Jeffery Awesome because we sing him the song "Everything is Awesome" from the Lego movie and insert his name.

c&mlarson

We call our Catherine by Kate probably 99% of the time. Sometimes KateKate :-) Otherwise we started with sweetpea and now just petname with punkin, pumpkin pie, or AngelFish.

Jules3320

We call our son Gunner Gunny Bear.

mrsmitchell1120

When lo was born, dh said "he's just a little bean!" We named him Oliver, but I'm pretty sure he thinks his name is either bean or stinky beans, or any variation.

Britmennesson

We starting calling our daughter Philippine, "Philippine-our-little-bean" and that got shortened to "bean" or "Phili-bean"

Britmennesson

If we had a boy he was going to be named Oliver! I love that name and we too call our little girl bean.

juliekay25

We mostly call him by his full name Maximus. I want him to know his name first. But sometime at bedtime I call him my little bear. I love the bedtime for little bears book so that stuck. When he's being crazy I call him monkey. He keeps trying to climb me and has been standing up on stuff.

For some reason my parents refuse to call him buy his name. They always shorten it. I keep saying his name is Maximus and they just say they don't want to call him that. They do stuff like that all the time. It gets to the point where I don't want them around.

allybannanie

Just like @juliekay25 we too like to call our Noah by his name mostly because we wanted him to know it which He now responds to. Yay
I referred to him as my gerber and nugget when I was pregnant. Now I call him Nono and poppa. 

oneblessedmess

Gianna goes by Gigi in general. I call her lots of stuff. Probably the ones I use the most are Gorgeous and Stinky Butt lol.
