Snarky and T-TTC

Do you call DH by his first name?

DH and I rarely call each other by our first names.  When we do, it feels weird.  :P  We don't call each other "honey" or "sweetie" either.  We have a nickname we call each other and that's become the norm for us.

  • Only rarely do we use our first names.

  • his nickname for me and everyone else to call him is First Name Last Initial, so I call him that a lot....he does the same to me

  • Rarely

    Oddly enough, he calls me "wife" and I call him "husband".

  • Not very often. It's usually sweetie.
  • He has more nicknames for me than I do him.  So I'd say I do 80% of the time and he's more about 40%.

  • Hmm...I've never really thought about it. I would say he calls me by my first name 50% of the time - the other times he'll usually call me "sweetie." I call him by his first name about 75% of the time.

  • Only when talking about him or if I'm mad at him.  Usually it's "babylove" or "lovey".

  • I am actually embarrassed, but we call each other "Baby" or "Babe." Occasionally he'll throw in a "sweetie," but it's mostly the above.

    I hated it when he started doing it, but it rolls over the tongue too easily that it's habit.

  • We both call each other babe most of the time. I use his first name ofthen though too.

  • so funny- I never thought about it but its true 90% of time, I call him by his nickname. the 10% he is called by his first name only when he pisses me off.

     

  • t.birdt.bird member

    probably about 50% of the time.

    the other 50% is split between "hon", "babe" or "homo"

    yes...homo.

  • I usually call him Babe or Baby.?He used to call me Babe and Baby, too, but it has now morphed to, most often, Bubs and Bubby. But also: Bubsy, Boobs and Boober. He will call me these things even in front of his parents.

    We very rarely use each others' names.?
