What do you call your LO? Our daughter is named Lilian, but she also goes by Birdie, Birdie Boo, Silliest Liliest and the most recent one Squishy Tushy because she's cloth diapered, so her bum is particularly squishy.

G-man is about it...not much need for a nickname for a 1 syllable name (which is partly why we chose the name).
"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasured day you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart...let me hold you while I may."
Pickles - my sister started calling him this when I put my foot down to her calling him Dill, it stuck.
Bug - he's my litlle lovebug!
Squirmy wormy - it's like wrestling an alligator getting him dressed.
A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!

We had silly nicknames for Elizabeth when she was a baby, but they all kind of faded away as she got older and her personality became stronger.
The closest thing to a nickname she has right now is El-za-bette. She has a Bosnian teacher and that's how she pronounces Elizabeth and I've picked up the habit!
After 20 months, 3 Clomid cycles and 4 IUI cycles, IVF #1 with ICSI = BFP!

We haven't come up with anything too creative yet for Roman but most of the time I call him Boogie or Bubby. I have no clue why! My friend's mom thought we named him Broman since she misheard me when I told her his name. So sometimes we call him Broman to be funny
