Our poor DD is stuck sharing NNs with the dogs since we're so used to using them. She's got Pickle all to herself, but she shares sweet pea, pumpkin, monkey, munchkin face, and pumpkin pie with the pups.
Same with E. He shares stinks, honey bear and bubba with the dog. Captain Cranky Pants and Squeaks are all his.
I was going to edit to add captain crank-n-fuss lol I guess I use it often as its an auto fill on the phone!
I teased with dh while he was away that Eli is captain crank-n-fuss of the clinger enterprise ship
DS1's name Is Riley and we call him bug, Ry, Ry guy, Ry bug, and buggy bug.
DS2's name is Rhys and we call him Reese's pieces, Reesey, Reesers, bug, and baby boy.
Benjamin is fart monster, baby bear, baby burrito, bubba, and little piranha when he's trying to latch.
I call DD baby burrito when she's swaddled!
I call my LO baby burrito when he's swaddled too. And I sing Baby Beluga to him, but substitute beluga for burrito. Why a burrito would be swimming in the deep blue sea is beyond me, but LO is 5 weeks old and doesn't seem to mind.
I have several...
Baby E, sweet pea, beautiful boy, Goober, and goober-pot. Not sure where the last two came from...
DH calls him little dude, little man, Cutie, and Minion.
My mom calls him her "little polar bear".
Ive been known to call LO polar bear too, for obvious reasons.
I call LO Mack, Mac and Cheese, macaroni noodle, Squirm (bc she moves SO much), Billy (she sounds like a billy goat), Queen ( when she's fussing and I sing the song from coming to America...she's your Queen to be).
We have a ton of nicknames for both the girls Dd#1: Bella, Belle, IzzyB, Bella Shai, Bellie Bell, when she was an infant my husband woild call her "Goo"
We call him "baby" a lot, partly since we were team green and didn't have names and got in the habit. But we also call our (now 5 year old) cat "kitten", and he answers to that better than his actual name. So... maybe we just have a problem.
We call our two five year old dogs pup pup or dog dog all the time. (The double word because there's two of them of course, and we got them at the same time)
We were team green too, and have had a bit of difficulty adjusting to our LO actually having a name.
Another name that I have used (and DH wasn't happy about!) was One Eyed Willy (as in The Goonies). Simply because she has a tendency to either leave one eye partly open when she is falling asleep and waking up. I try not to use it since DH was upset (apparently he isn't familiar with The Goonies, so the name referred to something else in his mind).

Since this thread I've realized I call LO way more names than I thought. Superman when he is asleep on my chest with his arms straight up. Squawker when he's making a lot of noise.
We call Samara by name about half the time. I call her peanut, pea nutty, and nut butter. Also stink bomb because farts! DH calls her "rhohee" which means my soul in Arabic. Soooo sweet!
