“Motek”/ Hebrew for “sweetie” is used a lot in our home; “Boobah”/ Hebrew for “doll” is another one.
What’s great is that these pronouns are used interchangeably between myself and my husband, myself and my kids, husband and my kids. Yeah…a multi-purpose name goes a lo…o….n…g way.

I call my fiance Markybear. Since he’s Polish, I started calling him Markybearski. He calls me Mellybearski a lot. For a while I was also Snugglebunny, but now it’s usually Cutiepieski or Shortycakeski (I’m only 5′1″). He also recently started calling me Midge, short for “Midget”. I realized a few years ago that I never call him “Marc”–always Marky or some other nickname.

Lizriz,
Do you mean Everready? I’d like to think so! But no, it’s short for Enviro-spouse (he’s an environmental consultant).

I think I’m gonna hurl…I call my man ‘Man’.

I can be often heard saying “My Man” “Man o’Mine” “Man oh Man” “where the hell is my Man”

My name is Lisa.

My live-in boyfriend calls me Leesepea.

I’ve embraced the name as a part of my identity, as, I’m sure, at some point, I will also embrace his last name.

It’s a combination of “leese,” which is what my family calls me, and “sweet pea” which was one of his original nicknames for me. I have a gazillion nicknames for him, depending on the time of day or my reason for calling. It’s strange and silly and, yet, still very much a part of the mating ritual.

Neilochka, though, that’s really cool!

My last two pet names for guys (two different guys) have been Poop and Turd. I have been Helenita (same as Neilochka) and Bunny.

My special part has been known as chonch (Spanish slang), and Joanie (Chachi means penis in Korean).

This was a good read. It made me smile, but it also made me sad.

I’ve had more nicknames than I care to mention. The one that I remember most is Brookester. To this day when I run into him he calls me that, and it still makes me heart flutter.

Edgy Mama,

“E-spouse”??? Is this like your Everquest husband or something?

You realize that I created this post so I can now blackmail all of you with this embarrassing information. Especially Megan. Stanley?!
