neener*neener* · November 2017

Currently "Baby D #3"

Melissa9481 · November 2017

DD is two and suggested Slimer for a baby name so we've been calling her that.

gingermama29 · November 2017

My mom has been calling her Baby Boo from the beginning (thinking of the character from Monsters Inc). So she's been Boo.

Our little OJ or Orange Juice... Her name will be Olivia Joy. We’ve joked she will end up with a white bronco when she’s able to drive.

I have an Olivia Jade

We don't really have a nickname for the baby... picked names super early and then found out gender early, too. It's just been his name... we're boring

DH always called him chicken nugget. Now that we know he’s a boy and his name, he’s been Abel but when DH is feeling sentimental he calls him chicken nugget.

clc515 · November 2017

Not original, but been calling him either Little Man or the kiddo. Still don't use his name much, partly cuz we're keeping that to ourselves til he's born and don't want to slip

babymakes9 · November 2017

The in laws ars calling him jr. The older kids are calling him parasite (jokingly) and everyone's just calling him the baby. Occasionally someone will use his name, but not very often. I call him the baby. So boring of me.

Chawk17 · November 2017

I'm boring- call her by name

sre789 · November 2017

We've settled on Olivia Kate and I've been calling her OK or okie! Husband just calls her "my baby" and my heart melts every time.

We call ours Nugget. Our family has started calling him Nugget, too, which sounds weird to me.

The baby. I'm boring.

Friends called their baby Fuzzy. He's over a year old now and they still call him Fuzzy. At some point, that nickname is not going to be ok.

But it might work again when he's 70!

Megzb510 · November 2017

My son created the nickname Tiki so that’s what we have been calling her since we are still undecided on a name.

I went to high school with a girl who still went by her baby nickname ‘Skib’ which I guess was shortened from Skittle Butt. Cute when you’re 1, but not sure how it stuck so long. I didn’t even know her real name for a couple years!

mblomq2 · November 2017

Pickle, Little Foot (like from the Dino movie), The Kid.

pandappanderson · November 2017

Before we knew it was a girl and had a name picked out we referred to the baby as ‘Stormie’ which came from an episode of Doctor Who where a baby wanted to be called Stormaggedon, Dark Lord of All. Which we thought was funny. And in the early stages when baby was making me feel sick it was apt that Stormie was making mommy feeling Stormie.

Does he watch the miraculous ladybug? It's my dd's favorite. And a cute nickname

That's hilarious. A friend of mine made us some adorable onesies for DD. One of them said "Stormageddon: dark lord of all." Then there were Harry Potter, Supernatural, and Mario themed onesies. (It was a nerdy onesie theme.)

ash0625 · November 2017

We call him the baby, or baby Link (his name is Lincoln).

lainikins · November 2017

With my son, we call the baby Baby Sister. Between my husband and myself, we call her by her name, Lydia, or nickname, Liddy. We are boring.

eggplantface · November 2017

@babybro218 I actually have a friend in his 40s whose nickname is Fuzzy. Something to do with a halloween costume in his youth. But we don't bat an eye. "This is my friend Fuzzy," "Nice to meet you, dude."

We call baby Soupcan, and H also calls him "little feller," as in "How is the little feller doing?"

TattoosandLace · November 2017

DD1 was “Baby” super generic.
DD2 was something I can’t remember. :
LO is Squish

Starynightsky24 · November 2017

The baby... or his name. We are boring lol.

soulcupcake · November 2017

Teddy, Theo, Tedster, Theodore or baby.

RaeleenD · November 2017

We don't have names picked yet, or know the gender. So, I go with baby or wiggle worm, since they're moving a lot now. Especially after work.

MrsJ2410 · November 2017

We also just refer to her by name, Nora, and I call her Nora bean too.

amb929 · November 2017

With my first baby, we referred to him "Spawn/Spawnina" interchangeably for the first 19 weeks before we knew the gender (we are good people, no?). We kind of did the same thing with this baby until we found out that he is a he! With Alex, once we knew the gender and found out that he was Frank's breech from about week 25 on... we couldn't agree on a name so he became "squid" or "Paco the taco" (I mentioned that we really are good people, right?) Once he had a name, we called him "Alex" or "Bubba" (My husband says weird things when he's tired haha) Bubba even was his "code word" when we took him on a Disney cruise for parent pickup

DS #2 has thus far been known as "the baby" (inventive right?) "Spawn, the second" (Okay, maybe we aren't really good people...) and my personal fav now that we've agreed to a name and a serious shout out to my favorite early 2000's chick flick... "Benny boo boo boo boo boo" (Definitely bad people, definitely).

chucksmom15 · November 2017

Before we knew the sex and had a name he was Taco. We were having them for dinner and we aren't super creative. My mother was terrified we would actually name him Taco lol.

texaskindofway · November 2017

My husband made a joke early on that we should tell people we were naming him/her something ridiculous, like "Dandelion Apricot," and see how many people would be honest in their reactions. That morphed into "Dandy" for the nickname!

kristinl492 · November 2017

When we told my parents about the pregnancy I was about 7 weeks along and he was the size of the blueberry. Somehow that stuck and he was called blueberry for most of the first half of the pregnancy til we found out the sex. Now it’s mostly just “he” or even more exciting, “the baby.” His name is picked out but i don’t like using it before he’s out for some reason!

atalante · November 2017

Killbit3000!

DH snuck it into a list of names when we were going back and forth early in the process, and I told him that was my lead contender. It'll work til she's born and we tell people her real name

ramzlau · November 2017

We just started using her name more, but we are big on nicknames, one just hasn't stuck yet. Sometimes I call her baby sis when talking to the puppy about her. Otherwise kind of waiting til she is outside to find the right nickname
