What’s Your Pet Name For Your Boo?
Dashing out the door this morning, I called out in the general direction of my boyfriend, “Bye! I love you!” and he responded, “I love you, lollipop!” Lollipop? That’s a new one. (I won’t dish what his regular pet name for me is, but to my father, I’m Boop Boop, and to my mom, I’m Monkeyface. Hey, stop laughing!) Schmoopy pet names might be the #1 obnoxious thing couples do, but don’t try to act like you’re not guilty of it, too. Since we’re nosy girls here at The Frisky, we want to know your most embarrassing little terms of endearment. C’mon, don’t be shy! Tell us in the comments below.

My names for him :
Sweet bear, sex broccoli, tasty tater tot, love bug, honey bunches of oates, my Mexican jumping bean, philly cakes, mancake, bunbun, petit chou ... thats enough. I’m making myself sick.
He calls me lovecake or his newest one is “My little missile crisis!”

I through around the occasional sweety or honey (usually ironically, as in “you’ll pass this round of Lego Star Wars the next time, honey!”), but when in compromising positions he’ll call me his “beautiful girl” and I’ll call him my “big, strong man”. Could be worse, but definitely NOT something I’d ever want to say in public!

eh. I’m not a big offender haha. The only one I use regularly is baby/babe. Occasionally love. My boyfriend on the other hand gets a kick out of how annoyed I get with all the goopy pet names he comes up with. He can come up with some of the most disgusting things, and gets such a kick out of my horror haha. Let’s see, puddinpop (he got this of of that 70s show grr), babycakes, sweetcheeks, pumpkinpie, cupcake..I could go on but I might cry lol. Fortunately, he only whips these out for his amusement, and quickly stops once I pinch him..hard. The only ones he knows I’m ok with are baby and occasionally sweetie.

I’m actually not big on the pet names. A couple times I called my ex Schnookums, but that was just as a joke after we talked about how we weren’t really big on the pet names.
For me, a casually placed Hun or Sweetie makes me melt. Much else, and I’d probably be slightly creeped out.
I did call my ex “Boo” a lot, but that also kind of started as a joke. What I tend to call the guy I’m seeing most is “Sir” (because that’s not weird). But it’s usually when they hand me something or open a door and then I say, “Why thank you, Sir”. I get weird looks from strangers.

My husband calls me Boob (not sure why, maybe has to do with a movie line “What do you want, boob?!?”), and I call him Squishy (“I shall call him Squishy and he will be mine, and he shall be my Squishy!”).
They are just silly pet names that make us giggle.
I pity the couple that takes themselves too seriously for retarded nicknames. :D

@Cheese: I always assumed that maybe it was slang for Beau (sounding like Bo), which I have also been guilty of saying, and over the years it turned into Boo.
Upon reading these comments, I don’t really think it’s the pet names themselves that bug me, but the way in which they are said. Perhaps it’s just me, but I CAN NOT stand baby voices. So when people raise their voice three octaves and start calling someone their “Widdle snookie wookie”, I’m sorry, instant projectile vomiting occurs.

@CheeeeEEEEse, fun fact - the nickname “boo” for your significant other comes form the mispronunciation of the word “beau”, which was traditionally what women called male courters.
I call the bf “wooly-bear” and he calls me “baby bear”

For our sweetish names, I call him Cowboy, and he calls me Darlin. However, pretty much every time we greet each other we come up with new, unique nicknames for each other. Sometimes we’ll call each other the names of historical figures, or just speak very formally to each other. Sometimes he calls me master and pretends that he’s my servant (I had nothing to do with that, I swear). Since he’s going to graduate from law school this Spring, sometimes I call him his full name followed by Attorney At Law - really official sounding. Sometimes we call each other terms or concepts that we’re learning in class that relate to the other person. He may call me some kind of statute, and I may call him by psychological or sociological concepts. Then we usually teach each other about the concept and talk about how we relate to it. It’s a great conversation starter really, and an excellent way to learn more about each other and let the other person know that you understand them.
Wow, I feel like a total freak after reading that. haha

I usually go for and respond well to the pet names that are real words (honey, babe, and lately I’ve been glad to be “my darling girl”). Snugglyumpkins and schnookums and pookie and boo are all words that are too ridiculous to do anything but laugh. As I write this I’m realizing that I like terms of endearment, not baby talk.

i used to call my ex “kid”, and he called me “lady”... i’m with a new guy, who i’ve called “kid” once or twice while looking for another name, and it felt weird. we sometimes call eachother “babe” in an obnoxious mocking way, but no other nicknames yet.

I call him peanut, but not in public. He calls me bunny. Or baby. Or sometimes buggie?

When I’m in a good mood he is the “doodle bug”, like doodle bug pass the potato chips. When I’m in a bad mood he is the “poop bag”, like poop bag you said you’d be home at 7. It makes him laugh, because I say poop bag like a little child, and I came up with it one day when I was really made, one of those times you’re like: “Well at least I’m not a poop bag!” and then you stop and laugh, and the argument is over.

With my ex, pretty much any result of the following equation was fair game: animal/food + body part/article of clothing = nickname. Hence, Chinchilla Cheeks and Bologna Boots.

I had to comment on this when I saw the word “lollipop”. That is what my boyfriend calls me! he always jokes and says I’m sweet like a lollipop. I know he is refering to two things when he tells me that, the way I am as a person and the way I, well, taste..
i dont really call him anything special, just babe or honey. guess my imagination isn’t as good as his

I had an ex that I drunkenly called “Bones” early on (“these are my bones!”), and it stuck. He in turn dubbed me “Free Bird.” We never used any sweet names unless we were fighting and/or making up, though we had this adamant opposition to using “babe/baby” for an unknown reason.
My SO and I now rarely (read: never) use pet names, which kind of saddens me. He often calls me “beautiful” - but I have a hard time associating it as a “pet name.” Once I let out a sentence ending in “dear” which he chastised, so I figured any thing else is out of the question. Sad day…

I got a bad hair cut once and my ex tried to cheer me up by saying I looked like a “sweet little muppet.” It didn’t work. I asked him if he meant Animal because of the hair or Ms. Piggy. He didn’t say anything for a few seconds because he realized he dug himself a hole. I laughed if off and then he started calling me muppet baby.

Well…I call my fiance “Coppa”,because he’s a cop. He calls me Baby Doll. I also call him other things like “MR.” or “Cute Face”...when I’m talking about him to/with others, I call him “The Boy” or “The Hubby-To-Be”.

I like to throw around studmuffin, hotstuff, loverboy and casanova with my guy. My current guy isn’t really into using pet names aside from copious amounts of ‘babe’ and ‘love’ (he’s a total romantic, just not a creative one I guess). My last ex was pretty creative though - sexpot, little lady (in a cowboy drawl, of course), muffinbutt, sweetbutt, badonkadonkulus (lots of references to my butt, I dunno), sugarlips, and so on. Ah, and he was half Turkish, so lots of loveydovey nicknames in that language too (which were, in some way because it was a foreign language, even more endearing).
I think pet names are fun.

He calls me ‘gorgeous’.
I call him Legoman (he’s currently wearing a back brace - we were in a car accident)...or sweetcheeks. *sigh* he has an amazingly cute butt. lol.

My boyfriend and I go back and forth with names, like when he calls me gorgeous-face, then I call him handsome-face, I call him anchor arms, and he calls me ocean.
I also get a kick out of the pet names his co-workers come up with for me. The most widely used by them is momma.
My personal favorite is when he comes up with pet names for himself in conversation, hahaha, like snugglebear.
And of course we go back and forth with all the traditional pet names, like honey, lovebug, sweetheart, love, darling, etc.

Silly things. Mostly I call my BF “Psyduck.” It started because he tends to sigh a lot when he’s relaxing, and “sigh” rhymes with “psy.” Psyduck was also my favorite Pokemon when I was a kid, haha. “Honey,” “sweetie,” and “babe” are also names I use, as well as his name with an affectionate “‘ly” on the end and various other perversions of his name. (Nameasaurus Rex, for example, and Nameicus Maximus.)

My husband calls me Precious and I call him Sir or Master because he is the Master of my heart.
My ex-husband used to call me “#&@$%” or “beandip”. No I am not Hispanic and the story behind the nickname is too long to share…lol
