CPT: LO's Nicknames

TrueBeliever925 · May 2014

Because I forgot to do this poll yesterday and because I'll most likely forget by next Wednesday (thank you, mommy brain!)....

What do you affectionately refer to your LO as the most?

peteyrisha · May 2014

A variation of his name

we call him Logie or Logie Bear. Sometimes DH will call him sweet prince. Talk about adorable!

Revez · May 2014

Lately it's been peanut. I don't know why...

Eta: Maybe because she thinks peanut butter jelly time is hilarious

Speshul · May 2014

Minion, stink, babycakes, froglegs, and a few others. I'm not sure she will know her own name.

Snowbird7 · May 2014

"Bunny rabbit," for some odd reason

V&G101808 · May 2014

N has 1,000 nicknames...

BooBoo
Bebe
Boops
Tornado
Nene Lindo

Just to name a few... thankfully he does respond to his name so I haven't totally screwed him up.

Cosmic+Love · May 2014

Buddy Buttkins, Wessy Bum, Wessy Boy (DH uses this one), Schmunch, Sugarbum.

The toddlers at daycare call him Wessy. So sweet!

MommyKristin88 · May 2014

I picked a variation of his name.

He's the III (named after his dad and grandfather), so we call him Trey.

ashleyamberRN · May 2014

I picked birth name but I also call her a million different things. I often sing her first and middle name. Dh calls her penny almost exclusively since Penelope is her middle name, when she poops I call her stinky Pete which I got Pete as a variation of penny (yea it's a weird "variation" I know).

thoughtfulmommy · May 2014

I refer to him as little guy and call him monkey. Not really sure why we chose monkey because he is lazy and doesn't climb around. DH and I both call him that. He likes bananas.....

TrueBeliever925 · May 2014

Boo Boo is my #1 go to. And I say it like Yogi Bear because he cracks up.

We also call him Jackson, Jax, Monkey Man, Handsome, Jackalack.

karabear11 · May 2014

We call her goobies. It started at goobers or goobs and is now mostly goobies. I have no idea why!

KQuinonez · May 2014

So we have about 90 nicknames for Liam. I go through phases. Right now he is my "Little Love". Not sure where I picked that one up. A lot of the times he is Liam Bear or Liam Monster. I used to call him pumpkin a lot too. Lord help him, he will probably hate me when he is older.

cinderin · May 2014

We call him his name (he knows it) or usually munchkin, bubba or sweetie/sweetheart.

Our daycare lady calls him her nugget. I think that is a funny nickname, but cute.

PB102012 · May 2014

We call her Bug, but have been trying to refer to her by her name more often so she learns to recognize it.

CharmedBAcMF · May 2014

I picked variation of her birth name.

I mostly call her Olive or "little love" (I, also, don't know where I picked it up.). Depending on her moods or what she's doing it may also morph into "booger bear", "monkey", "squirm", "fussaluffagus", and "miss fussy".

Daycare calls her Happy feet.

LEMSA · May 2014

Mad
Maddy
Madman
Dra-Maddox
Saddox
Little man
Octopus Pete
Turkey
But mostly his name and variations of such

nnikki10 · May 2014

I've called N a Drama King multipleeeeee times.

azzy1206 · May 2014

We call our lil one
Lombris ( it mean Earth worm in Spanish) and booger the most.

other people call her
Ginger
strawberry short cake
Or just read head. Lol

MitsB707 · May 2014

So so many nicknames. Ty, Ty bear, tyberius, little ninj, ninja, Boop, boopkins, booba, boobakins, schmunchkin, schmunch, boobaloobakins, schmunchkanoodlekins, and probably so many more that I forgot, lol

rooftop · May 2014

kaylee, leesi, and sweet pea are my most common but I've always thought of the flower when I use that one not food

ETA hubby calls her sugar bear or schmoo

kkay1982 · May 2014

First name, middle name, biiga (Gulmancema for baby) and munch are the most common. But I have about 100 other ones. My kid does not know his name.

AprilRaine · May 2014

DS1 is "The Dude" and officially refers to himself as "Duder". DS2 somehow ended up with "Squish" and I'm kinda wondering how that's gonna work out when he gets a little older.

kkay1982 · May 2014

DH and I also refer to him as "mon ami" (my friend) when we talk to each other about LO. "Do you know what mon ami did today?" Is common if I had to deal with a pooplosion.

vulpini · May 2014

I think we mostly just call him Ethan, but I also call him my "silly monkey" and "little man" a lot. When he's poopy he's my stinkeroo. DH sometimes calls him Wheat Thin. There really aren't any natural nicknames for Ethan, so whatever nick names he ends up with will most likely not be derived from his name.

APK141 · May 2014

Gma calls him Owen-Schmowen. Not sure if I like it.
We call him just plain "O" a lot.
Mr. MaGoo
Booger, BoogerButt
Tough Guy

And a million other things, but those are the most common.

Jlhkandme830 · May 2014

I voted handsome because I often call him 'handsome pants'. Also, Little Love, Sweetpea, and Link.

Jamiepahel · May 2014

We call her bug, buggy, bugger, stump stump (she has short legs lol), boogie. Whatever comes to mind in the moment.

BelhurstBride · May 2014

DD1 is pumpkin pants. I have no idea where it came from.

DD2 is smiles. She is so damn smiley. At least compared to how her older sister was as an infant.

starshower22 · May 2014

We call her by her name enough that she knows it but I call her bug, baby bug, or snuggle bug a lot. It just came out one day and it's stuck ever since.

caper18 · May 2014

She goes by Libby most of the time but we call her many variations:

Libby Dibby

Dibby

Lib-a-dee-doo

Libs

The Libster

Boobalou (no idea where that came from)

She only gets her full name now and then, but does respond to it...I was worried she wouldn't know what it was

lkobriant · May 2014

So many names!! He's fella, crazy cakes, crazy pants, fussy pants, baby doll, handsome devil, silly goose, sweet pea, slobber man, slobber bug, slobber monster, etc

Thankfully he's been loving his name lately so he hears that a lot too.

kanned0121 · May 2014

We call him bubbers most of the time, or bubbs.

mommabmb · May 2014

Joel = Jojo or Mojo most of the time

janneann1127 · May 2014

We call him a lot of things. Boo, buddy, munchkin, but lately we've been calling him Deaky-d. (His name is Deacon). It's like his rap name.

courtneykid · May 2014

We call her little love, booger, boogs, booga, suga boo or darlin.

WashingtonQueen · May 2014

We use her birth name when speaking to her. We sometimes use nicknames when referring to her when speaking with someone else. We say her name when talking to her because it helps the baby learn who they are easier.
