I know it's late, so I may not get many responses, but what kind of strange nicknames do you have for your LO, and how did they get that nickname?
I call DS my little gummybear because when I lay him down in his crib or when he's really hungry and laying on the bed, he'll turn over on his side and stick his legs and arms straight out in front of him and he looks just like a gummy bear. It's so freaking cute.
I also call him Rambo. It started out as Ram, but somehow the bo got attached. His name ends in "ram", and he likes to headbutt me in the face when he's standing on my lap, so it's fitting.

When I was pregnant I called R Squidward or Squiddy for some reason {had nothing to do with Spongebob}.
Now I call him Tiny and his father still calls him Squiddy {which I now hate}
Ok, don't judge. lol
DH started calling him Grundy when he was a few weeks old. He used to grunt all.the.time and apparently there is some comic book villan named Grundy? So that's where DH got the name. I didn't like it at first, but its stuck around.
I also call him Boogey, Boogey Bear, Boogey Butt, and Cheese.
Don't ask. We are strange.
In the womb it was Peanut.
Now he has become Boogie. I mainly call him Boogs. But he also goes by Boogie Woogie, Boogie Bear, and Boogie Man.

We like nick names in our family. My son's full name is Alexander III, but he will never go by his full name to avoid confusion between the three Alexs (grammar? not sure what the proper plural form would be). I wasn't 100% in love with his name, but it grows on you after a while. It was very important to my husband to name his first son his family name. He typically goes by "Lex".
As for the more silly we also call him Lex-ers, Lexington, Boo-boo
Munchkin. I think it came about because she was so small at first. And so she is our munchkin, the munchkin, or just munchkin.
Pookie...we have this book and it's now caught on
OMG my BF's mom calls her kids her ugly buglies since they were tiny some people think its mean but I love hearing them as adults leave messages for eachother saying "I love you ugly!" hahahaha
I call Evie Cricket, Baby Girlie, My mom calls her monkey and cutie and her aunt calls her pretty "Hi Pretty how are you?"
Cricket because she reminds me of jiminey cricket from pinochio(sp)
Love your siggy pic! We just returned from a trip and we too have a photo with the Captain! I would post it but it's such a PITA since it's still on the camera.
Our first family photo!
We, or I call LO Toot Toot.. She Toots ALL the time.. Just kinda stuck.. DD1 is BooBoo. Have called her that since she was about 2 months old and I still do.. She is 7 now. DH calls LO Pumkin.
Monkey, Monkey face, Sweet Hart (courtesy of my MIL) and Chief Thunder Bottom
His name is lending itself to lots of nicknames: Sweet Hart, Hart Attack, Brave Hart, etc...
I just love this thread!
We call DS Buddy (an actual nickname for Charles), Boo Boo, Doodle
Burrito (from loving a tight swaddle)
Baby MacDonald (a character in his favorite book)
Spitty Cent - yes, this is so freaking cheesy and is completely something my dad would come up with but the kid has reflux so it just came out one day.

"Yo shawty ... it's ya birthday ..."
Prince, Squirmy McSquirm Squirm - he is & has always been a wiggle worm (even in the birth canal he squirmed & as soon as they laid him on my chest he inched like a little worm.) & Z.
ha ha! that's cute. i loved the super friends as a kid and solomon grundy had a hilarious voice. it's perfect! i also love "spitty cent".
austin is our manbear, our manbearcub, mr babyman (because he feels like our boss) and (because we're dorks) farty barffast. or barfy fartfast. there's a character in the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy called "slartibartfast" which just lends itself to stuff babies do.
Aw I'm late to the game but I'll still through them out there.
Tage is my little pumpkin pie. Taylen is Taterbug.
