Silly Names

Charla1224

A friend of mine had a status the other day about the silly nicknames she uses for her kid. She said her son hears and answers to Booger Butt more than his actual name. I've found myself picking up this habit more and more too. Elizabeth is most often Stinker Belle Elle but we also use Stinker and Tink Tink. Why? I have no clue but we can't be alone. 

So, what super random, possibly weird name do you call your kid(s)?

MsIan

We call Nate "Boba"--yes after the wrap. It just happened one day and stuck

My son's name is Zachary but we call him Zackie a lot or the normal Zack. My sister had a bunch of random nicknames that we sometimes still call her even though she's almost 30.

cortney626

Our's aren't too off the wall but we call her stinkpot, stink bug, sweet pea, peanut, booger. Hubby calls her pumpkin, pumpkin patch, or PC for Princess Cora. 

My dad's cousins still call me NeeNee from when my younger brother couldnt say Cortney when he was a toddler. That's been a nickname that has stuck for 30 years.

My husband calls our LO Thunder Poops. He even created a theme song for her. 

Kurrant

Oh man, I call her Munchy-kins, Sweet Pea  and Farty McFarterson when she is really gassy.  My dad used to call me poopy. He called me this all the time.  When I was about 14 I had a friend sleep over and my dad used the nick-name called and she asks "Did your dad just basically call you sh*t?"  and honestly I never really thought about the name as actual poop till then.  I assume I got the name during my baby years but I really have no idea.

balamama

I call him monkey-moo, and when he's being very demanding "the little dictator."

kitandcat

I call him Chunky Monkey... "Moose" which my mom started when she was here because he eats so much LOL ... Crank pot, Cranky Pants... Stinker... :-) Probably
the most I call him "Little Baby" when I'm trying to calm him down. 

MH sings this made up song to him constantly ... I can't even describe the tune but the words are "Lucas, Bucas, whatcha gonna do with your mucus?" :-) so random and weird but we sing it constantly!

Charissadeats

We call him 'klein neusie' because we are 'neus' or 'neusie' to each other. It translates to nose So he is LITTLE NOSE. It comes from 'Shitnose' or 'Poefneus' and that started as a joke when we dated. It stuck.)

DH calls him 'springkaan' so GRASSHOPPER. Apparently his legs is like a grasshopper's but I don't know why. 

And I call him Apie (MONKEY) or Hasie (BUNNY). He clings like a monkey but make noises like a bunny, or what I think a bunny sounds like anyways .

thismakes4

Muncher-kin, biddy (like itty-bitties-I call all of my boys that). Kase. Little man. Chicken. 

Bellodomani

I call her Chubs, my husband calls her Baby Fatstacks (yes, a very dated Outkast reference). I always called our son tiny guy as a joke because he was in the 95th percentile for height & weight as a baby, and I find myself accidentally calling her that sometimes too. 

dsmith211

Little Butt, Chubs, Corbi, or Corbster. Most often we go with the first one and we don't really know where it came from but it just stuck. 

kami09

We call her Cordi or C...sometimes Cordi starts to sound like Cody with my baby talk. 

NinnyJean

We call Pollie either pumpkin, pumpkin pie or princess p

tgortney

Bubba, bubbie, bud, E man, chunkers, monkey, and the tyrant (when he's being fussy). 

DH calls him "little man" most often.

Jparke2

Early on I started calling Isla "Beanie." I'm trying to cut back because I basically replaced her name with this and was afraid she'd never know her own name! I also call her Beebee (it was Baby that kind of transformed), Grumpy Girl, or quite often Poopy Girl. This poor child!

kbrands7

Muscle man, fuzzy or fuzzy head, stinky, poop machine, little dude, smiley, cutie pie, and chunky monkey have all been used repeatedly. 
DS1 gets referred to often as handsome, wild man, sweetheart, smarty, and cuddle monster. 

mrstmoose

Sissy bear has been the one I've used and stuck with me. H says "hey girl" when he's cooing at her. 

Bltbear82

Turtle, monkey, little bear, pumpkin, nugget, and Kaspie. DS1's name is Teddy so he's Teddy bear, Teddy spaghetti (hilarious when you say it out loud for some reason), cheeks, monkey, and when he was a baby we used meltdown monster and sir fussington. 

eaorear

Strawberry queen, mousey girl, peach pie

This is hilarious. 

And @Jparke2 my D will never know her actual name because we don't use it enough. I'm hoping daycare helps her recognize it because that's the only place where she'll be just Elizabeth 

basedinaustria

DH is a big fan of the Zohan movie and uses a lot of glossary from there, so for example he likes to call her Baba Ganoush (which is actually an Arabian dish). Also he calls me "Boobarella" when she's hungry. Otherwise Mrs Sweetface (stole that one from "Jane the virgin"

jenl1681

DS1 is Bubs or Bubbie, DD is Chunk, and DS2 is Chubs

Victoria52516

Squeeks! She makes these squeeky noises when she sleeps/dreams. (Daddy says I do it in my sleep too lol) We started it in the hospital while we were still deciding on her real name. She still squeeks in her sleep so it stuck. Along with the regular pumpkin, stinker, cutie patutii.

yogahh

Lovey is what I call her most of the time. Sometimes I call her Elliot Spitzer cause she spits so much! 
Dh calls her Buddy which I don't like because it sounds like a boys nn to me.
During fussy times she is Fussy Buttons. 

littlebb22

I love these! We mostly refer to him as little man but also throw in gems such as milk monster, squish, stinker (that seems to be a popular one on this thread!), and fussy pants. 

KyleeWaller

We call Ainsley "Ainzers," and I often call her "Blue Eyes," and rarely call her "Sunny." My mom called her "Ainsley Odie" the other day.

1mae2016

We call Kirra Kel-B because her initials are KLB and I think it's super cute. I almost wish we named her Kelbie! Lol. SO calls her BUTT-BUTT. Idk why  but it's cute when he does it.
Edited to add that I use Gooby and BabyBaby a lot when she's being fussy or high maintenance. 

amberraysofdawn

I refer to LO as just "love" sometimes. My husband usually does some form of "Bug" (which I also use on its own without the add-ons): Lovebug when she's being cute, stinkbug when he's changing her diaper, etc. 

valerie4786

I think I just call her Baby more than anything.  I also call her Smush or Smush Smush pretty often, but on occasion I'll refer to her as a fartbox when she's extra gassy.  I just realized the other day that if I keep this up she won't know her real name is Harper.  

wsgjmw1

We are a family of ODD nicknames. We call DS bubbie, bubbie bear, bubbie brucester, bubbie mcgee, bubbie brisket, chunks, chunky mcgee. Ill stop now before everyone thinks I am totally nuts. LOL

That1didntcount

This little baby girl is affectionately known as lil mama. There are songs of all genres dedicated to her:)

Spofee, Baby Sofa, Sofa Bofa, Bofa, Bofers, Sad Baby, Saddest Baby, Miss Toots, Toots Baboots... and there's a couple more that I can't think of right now.  I'm not sure if she's even caught up with the nicknames we have for the cat though.

kami09

@Jparke2 you reminded me of a kid my husband had in kindergarten one year... He was calling role on the first day and the kid never raised his hand. So Kev went up to him and asked him his name. The kid said, "Baby." & DH said well maybe that's your nickname at home but what's your real name.   ...."Baby." Yep. 

dancingsphinx22

April lurker

we call her "Shrimp" a lot because of the pregnancy calendar. For some reason it made us crack up and so it stuck since pregnancy.

When I'm talking to her, I call her "bambina" and "LaLa" because that's the sound she makes when she cries. It's adorable. And "Fuss Butt" when she's cranky

DH just calls her "Alex", her true nickname, or "Sweetheart". We're not very creative over here haha!

Her name is Alessandra and I have yet to call her by that. I don't know why, it just doesn't fit her yet

Lol. I feel so bad about my dog's nicknames now; they aren't so kind. At this point, we just call him by his name or Pupper-face, but for years he was referred to as Baby Shit. I swear we love his crazy butt!

Haha when Pippa is being bad, she's "This Bitch"

mmemartinez

Generally baby bear/boo bear or cochonnet which means piglet. Because he's a little piggy who eats all the time.

seasalt123

Mine started out as Gyoza when he was a 5/6 week old fetus (cause that's kinda what they look like then). Then he transitioned to Baby J as he grew more developed in utero. Then after he was born, he almost instantly became The Monkey. 

tgortney

Funny that most of our nicknames are monkey something considering all our LOs are born in the year of the monkey.
