Baby Nicknames

Jesse's Girl 10 · September 2011

Does anyone have a special name that you are calling your baby until you find out if you're having a boy or girl??

My best friend said like 2 years ago that when I got pregnant, she would call the baby "Chester". So....Chester it is!!!

it sounds horrible but we have been calling it our ameba (sp?) because when we first found out i was pregnant we looked up how big the baby was and it said it was just a bundle of cells and my boyfriend said "like an ameba?" so that kinda stuck lol

shealy12 · September 2011

I call the baby our nugget, but my hubby calls the baby a shim (she/he)......see what I deal with?? lol

vtwd40 · September 2011

Our s is our Easter Peep, since I'm due the day after Easter, and this one seems sticky...like marshmallow!

Beener0514 · September 2011

Our last name is Macomber so we've been calling the baby "Little Mac"

missbritt77 · September 2011

We call ours Baby J for our last name.. or whatever food item it is that week.. like this week we call it a prune..

Lil' demon, because when I told DH I was preg the first thing he said, other than laugh at me POAS, was "ow, we're gonna have another lil' demon!" LOL.

The last pregnancy we called our little Parasite cause of a line from house that randomly popped into DH's head (he doesn't remember ANYTHING, but THAT he remembered, LOL!)

Dr. Gregory House: [clinic patient is unaware she is pregnant; House tells her she has a parasite] Don't worry. Many women learn to embrace this parasite. They name it, dress it up in tiny clothes, arrange playdates with other parasites.
Jill: Playdates?
Dr. Gregory House: [shows her the ultrasound] It has your eyes.

DD2 we called clumpy because when we saw the u/s at 10wks he goes "OMG, it's... it's... it's like, a clump! It's... it's CLUMPY!" LOL!

We call ours bean or beanie.

Jesse's Girl 10 · September 2011

My MIL also calls the baby JC for mine and DH's first names.

TheOriginalSP · September 2011

#3. lol Very ogirinal I know. But we just don't have anything else for it.

jrichards1 · September 2011

We went from Pescadito (means "little fish" in Spanish), to just Dito. My nick name for DH is Pesky Pescado, so it's only appropriate that LO be a pesky little fish.

It is a parasite!

Actually, I think the only thing I've called it besides "it" and "the baby" is "parasite". I'm not big on nicknames.

HA, just watched that the other night. I LOVE HOUSE!

skyrockets · September 2011

Tobe (pronounced "Toby")

Monkeybabe · September 2011

I don't really call it anything, but after showing my H an illustration of about what it looked like, at the stage I was currently at he dubbed it a "flipper baby" due to the webbed fingers and toes. Now he calls it "the flipper baby".

gisa886 · September 2011

I called DD Toot and it stuck. As far as the baby goes I just call it "him" because I am sure it is a boy.

Mipper · September 2011

While pg with DD we named her tic tac. And boy did it stick she is still called tic tac from time to time. We haven't settled on one for this one. My bro is calling it Ju ju bean (sp??) and my dh is calling it "enchilada" because I keep craving mexican food.

dollface777 · September 2011

We call ours "Blob". I know... very cute and cuddly. When we saw the baby on the ultrasound, it looked just like a little blob, so we call him Blob. My husband wants to call him Felix now, because the baby is now a fetus instead of an embryo, but I don't like it. Blob is stuck for now.

FirstTimeNavyMom · September 2011

We've been calling ours our little Sea Monkey, lol.

OwlSLP · September 2011

Since I'm due around Easter, we've been calling it our jelly bean.

SafetyBunny · September 2011

DH and I call ours Squiggle. We looked up online about what it should look like and we decided that i just looks like a squiggly thing, so squiggle is what he/she is called until we find out if it's a blake or norah!

JFH2010 · September 2011

I love all the creative nicknames! My parents called me Pumpkin Seed well into my twenties. I call mine by the fruit-of-the-week, but I really can't bring myself to call it "prune" right now. I'll have to find a better prune-sized fruit. Any ideas??

belladolcegirl · September 2011

I have been refering to them as "my posse" specifically when DH does not do want I want to do/eat etc. I tell him me and my posse win

We are definite on twins but triplets is also a possibility. Waiting for another u/s to confirm/deny

ScarlettDahlia · September 2011

This is completely dorky and random, lol. I call it Freddie. For some reason, since I found out, every time I'm in the car and flipping through radio stations, there is a Queen song playing. It cracks me up.

nikki.rzez · September 2011

Gummybear! I used to call my DH Eddiebear and now we call each other "Mamabear and Papabear" so it seems fitting!

P.S. I love House too!

luckibrat · September 2011

This is baby #2 so we are calling it "Dos" spanish for 2. My mom calls it "Seis" spanish for 6, this will be her 6th grandchild.

pioneernurse06 · September 2011

We call the baby "Little" or "Baby Little" but sometimes when i talk about the baby i say "him"

LMA06 · September 2011

Peanut

I like it because if we have a boy or a girl the nickname will still fit.

wntrgrl83 · September 2011

Peanut

I like it because if we have a boy or a girl the nickname will still fit.

Awww haha , we call ours Peanut too!!

jeffsjayme · September 2011

Right now, my DH is calling it "iCarly Moonshine" cause he thinks its a girl. He's been telling people that if it's a girl we'll name it that. If it's a boy, we'll name it Remington Steele. He's totally kidding. But the iCarly Moonshine has stuck.

TotallyLoCo · September 2011

Since we want to give the baby a J name, DH has been calling him silly names that start with J that we would never really name the baby. Like, he'll say "How's Jaquin doing?". It cracks me up. He's also called him Jeremiah, Jose, and Jesus.

starshollow · September 2011

Our last name starts with PINK and H has always been nicknamed Pinky because of it. So I have been calling it Little Pinky.
