LO nicknames

banfrog · September 2015

Has anyone given your LO a nickname?

My DS2 calls his little sister "Baby Hesta." He can say her name Elsa, but insists on Hesta so much so that DH and I catch ourselves calling her Hesta sometimes.

We call her bean. It's been pretty much since we got pregnant. Sometimes DH calls her bean sauce and I'll call her beanie baby

hjphillips · September 2015

I call her Milly, DH and I both call her turtle, and I've recently taken to calling her snarky, since she likes to clamp onto my nipples and thrash like there's no tomorrow.

DH calls him Marky, for Marcus, sometimes. I call him Bud, Buddy, and Bitty Boy.

laurenashley519 · September 2015

I call her 'bouncy' or 'bouncy girl'.

She's my little hummingbird

she makes this humming noise when she nurses, which is probably just an early indication she had my awful sinuses but for now I will just consider it a cute attribute.

Sweet pea. Peanut. Baby girl. Pretty girl. Crabby pants. We have a lot of names for her. Lol

taylorharber1108 · September 2015

We call him chunkers or chunky monkey. His sweet cheeks and double chin explain the nickname choice.

Sugarplum or Sugar. Sometimes Sugie if I want to squeeze her haha

banfrog · September 2015

A little girl at our church informed me she named my DD Star.

And my MIL didn't like the names we've given our children so she nicknamed DS1 Bubba and DS3 Buster. Absolutely no one else calls them by these names. In fact DS1 has corrected grandma of who he is a few times.

carleym93 · September 2015

When we first found out I was pregnant, I made a comment like, "Right now our baby is a little blob." So the name blob kind of stuck. She is 2 months old and she is still blob haha.

pabeybaby · September 2015

I call her Sugar Butt. I have no idea why but it's amusing to me lol. Or I call her Squirmy Butt when obviously she's being squirmy and/or fussy.

sarahmu7 · September 2015

This girl has so many nicknames! Chick pea, chickie, stinky butt, little burrito, peanut, babs, b. The list goes on and on!

ElleMF728 · September 2015

We call the little guy Tree Frog because he looks just like one when he curls his legs up. We call DS1 Bubbie or Bear.

MIL calls DD punkin (like pumpkin I guess?), that isn't my issue- my issue is that all her grandkids have nick names (8 total) EXCEPT my two sons but now she chooses to give DD a nickname? I'm definitely side eyeing the shit out of her for picking favorites

Momma's little burrito and stinky bum are two others of mine! I feel like the list could go on for days. Lol

We use most of these names for DD. But instead of Peanut, we call her Weenut.

banfrog · September 2015

@toccoaparker my MIL has shown favoritism for DS1 (and we have the only grandchildren for DH's side). Not really sure why because she was really pissed off when DH and I announced we were pregnant with him and had little to do with him until after he was 1. For her, the nickname things is really because she hates the names we chose and that we didn't name the children the names she insisted. I just try not to let her get to me.

diesel115 · September 2015

DS is primarily "Smush" because he's so soft and squishy

blovemama · September 2015

His name is Everett and we call him Rett. He also makes all kinds of squeaky noises so my mom calls him Little Squirt. He's got like 5 dimples, so I've recently been calling him Dimples. These are in addition to all the normal terms of endearment.

somelittleone · September 2015

My baby's name is Anastasia (russian origin) and I am myself is 100 russian. So she got plenty of nicknames starting from Nastya, Ana, Stasia, Stasi, bebe (bebe is the one I find myself using a lot, DH is catching on as well!)

bpwife&mama · September 2015

hstevens84 · September 2015

We call her nugget, munchkin and little one. She also gets called Roseanne sometimes by a sleep deprived mommy. (Roseanne is the dog

Seh114 · September 2015

We call him peanut, chunky monkey, fuss bucket, little man. I'm sure there are others but my brain fails me.

emshredder · September 2015

My SO and I refer to her to each other as the babe and I call her sugar pie, snuggle butt, lil miss fuss among other things.

ataylo90 · September 2015

We started calling him peanut since we found out I was pregnant. Now he gets Jax (short for his name, Jaxson) pumpkin, sweet pea, munchkin and my boyfriend loves to call him Mr.Fussy pants when he gets crabby!

louiseambrose · September 2015

Stinky, stinky face, baby cakes, sweet pea (she was "chickpea" before she was born, we were team green), lazy baby, sweet thing... But the most common one is Little One, which I'm realizing might be because of using "LO" on TB. Whoops!!
