GTKY: Nickname for Little One

Fishstick.
Story: my DH does this dance called the fish stick, and he was doing it in the room while we were waiting for the dr. Trying to keep my spirits up since I was so sick. Well, low and behold, when we had the ultrasound done the baby was dancing all around. So we named him/her fish stick. Now family and coworkers all ask " how's fish stick today?"

I asked my 3yr old what he want to name the baby, he said Charlie. The name could go for boy or girl. So we have been calling the baby Charlie.

DD is convinced it's a girl (we find out December 4th), and named "her" Julie so that's what we've been calling the baby. So we either have a girl Julie or a boy Julie...

missamERICA · October 2014

we don't this time... we called my first one "monkey"-- no idea why really.. but this one we haven't

We call the baby peanut.

I used to think I was like the mom in Dumbo waiting for my stork (who was obviously drunk and couldn't find the right train) so I figure elephants and peanuts go together!

We don't know if were having a boy or girl yet but we have nicknamed bubs poppy because firstly my hubby gets called poppy instead of papa by the kids so poppy girl (as in she will be her papa's lil girl) also if it's a boy we are naming him after my grandfather who fought in WWII for our freedom and poppies are significant to the Anzac soldiers

We call him Submarine. The day we had our first ultrasound, we were watching a special during Shark Week about a killer shark called Submarine. The baby on the ultrasound image looked just like the shark on the sonar image.

Mandi1013 · October 2014

The family and us call it Pumpkin because one of the pictures we did for an announcement.

Mu Husband and I personally call it Tigger because during the ultrasound to detect downs, etc, it was bouncing around.

Popper

I was eating something spicy... and then I said does my Lil ..popper like that lol

PinkDahLia44 · October 2014

I call the baby "mini-pinks" on my other bmb. We were just calling it "the baby" at home for a while, no nicknames because before it was moving around so much it was easy to just forget I was pregnant. But today he/she was kicking up a storm so I was talking to him/her more, and I found myself calling him/her "mini." So I guess it's mini until we find out its real name in 2 weeks.

Squishy!

thefitzfam · October 2014

Now that we know he's a boy, were calling him by his name: Danny!

lexyandcliff · October 2014

Gummy bear. But it changes. I only have one because I get chastised too much for calling it an it.

Renate85 · October 2014

Our baby is called "Woelwater" which roughly translates into whirling water. It's an Afrikaans thing.

JJBoden · October 2014

3.0

Well, for a while I've considered this lil fetus to be a monster- making me sick - and at what seem like very vindictive times

I call it Cletus, Cletus the Fetus. It drives DH batty. He calls it Seamus.

Little nugget. At my dating U/S I was only 7 weeks. Baby didn't even have arms or legs yet and I started calling it a nugget.

AshleighK305 · October 2014

We just call ours nugget! Hopefully we will find out the sex soon so we can refer to baby by his/her name!!

stephmackenzie · October 2014

Baby M, little one and my students refer to him/her as Mackenzie Mackenzie because I told them we hadn't thought of a girls name and if we couldn't agree on one by the time the baby came and it was a girl we would just call her Mackenzie and our surnames Mackenzie... They thought it was hilarious and now they come in each morning and say "hi Miss Steph, hi Mackenzie Macknezie"

stephb41415 · October 2014

Buck. We don't know what we are having yet. This could be an unfortunate nickname if Buck is a girl!

SweetsMunch · October 2014

I actually disliked all the usual names you hear people call the 'bun in the oven' so I told my DH that we needed something unique. He kept throwing things at me for a couple weeks and nothing was sticking so finally he decided to do a name mash-up like the celebrities. We settled on Baby Nicim. At least until we find out what we're having!

SMFB · October 2014

We calls ours by our current sons name and 2.0 (ex Frank 2.0). Our son is 8 so he knows it's a joke.

angiekdz · October 2014

Lil Biscuit! My hubby always used some variation of Biscuit as a screen name for years, so it seemed to fit!

WISSINGERL · October 2014

We've named our little one Poppy... Because when we first found out we were pregnant it was the size of a poppyseed

solaar · October 2014

My DH calls me his universe. So one day he said "How's my solar system?". I was confused because I'm Universe. It became clear when he kissed my belly. That's how we began calling the baby Solar.

keifekm · October 2014

Frosty. At the first ultrasound he/she looked like a little snowman because their limbs were so small.

polynomz · October 2014

I lovingly refer to my LO as 'chestburster'

kinseykinz · November 2014

"TBA" is what we call the baby at them moment.

Why? Our last name begins with an A and as a joke, I teased my hubby that we should get his Mom (who does NOT get humor at all and only takes things literally) a grandma necklace w/ charms for all her current grandkids and then tell her the new charm is for 'TBA' ...because I knew she'd spend from Christmas until delivery trying to figure out what the baby's real name was assuming TBA was the initals (I am slighly evil). He thought it was hilarious, (we are not doing this to my poor MiL, again I was just being funny), but the name still stuck.
