    My FW's name is a Whitney and when my toddler niece met her, she pronounced her name "Woody" and this is literally the only nickname that I call her. She always calls me babe or baby but I don't really use any terms of endearment with her. Which is kind of odd I guess. I reserve most of those for my pup!

    I'm Noot
    and he's boo.

    I can't actually remember how these came about because originally i called him "Flora"
    as on the day we first met each other ever, we went into WHSmith store and he picked up a TY teddy (The skunk called flora) and goofed around with it . then a few weeks later I asked if he could pick me up a bar of chocolate as I had a stressful day in work and wouldn't be able to go to the shops as my lunch was over & I had a few hours before i'd meet him for a date. When we did meet he brought me a huge bar of galaxy and the flora teddy!

    We both usually go for "baby" but we do shorten to "babe" at times. We also have the weird ones like he'll call me "my stinky girl". We rarely call each other by our actual names. Like, seriously, once a month will he call me by my actual name.

    He is Tiger or Amor, and I am Peaches, or babe. Except if he's in trouble, then he calls me "princesa", cause he knows it makes me laugh every time.


    If I lose him in a store, I call out for Larry until I find him LOL. (Inside joke from Impractical Jokers.)

    FH is also known as Ruckus. His name is Lucas but one of our god daughters couldnt say Lucas would call him "Ruckus." So, when we are with them, its Ruckus, otherwise just Tiger or Amor.

    That is so funny! I love it! Smiley xd

    I call FH babe, dork, dufus, and handsome, with varying degrees of recurrence, though babe is most often. I rarely call him by his actual name anymore, lol.

    His list is a tiny bit longer than mine; luv, my love, beautiful, stinker, penquin (inside joke), and my queen, plus a few random, funny one-time use ones. Ironically, he's only called me babe just once. And he calls me by my name and my common nickname more often then I use his name, lol.

    Honey, sweetheart, dear, baby, we both use those. I call him Grizzly Bear and he calls me Fish (because of the way he bear-hugs me at random moments). We call each other boyfriend/girlfriend too.

    Omg my boyfriend does the same exact thing!! He looks exactly like my dad when it does it too. Especially when we're in the car and he says "yes dear" then adjusts his grip on the steering wheel. I love making fun of him for it!!
