QOTD
Do you have silly/sweet/sickening nicknames for each other?
Please share them!
(saw this on another board and thought it was a great discussion!)

No government can dictate who we love. Life is short...so do what feels right!
Re: QOTD
Me for her: Cutie Patootie, Baby, Babe, sexy b*tch, babycakes
Her for me: Sugarpants, baby, honey, darlin'
Probably more that I can't think of right now. We use ALOT of nicknames!!
Do you have silly/sweet/sickening nicknames for each other?
Me to her: Tiny Face
Her to me: Monkey Bear
Um yes, they are kind of embarassing.
Me to her, Babes, Turtle Dove, Sweetheart, and Buttercup
Her to Me: Rikki Tikki Tavi, Butter Cup, My Loves.
LOL we're just letting all the cats out of the bag, aren't we dear? Well in that case I'll add...
Me for her: TFMOMC (The Future Mother Of My Child)
Her for me: MI (My Incubator)
I should perhaps note that Tiny Face came about when I was working hard on losing weight for our wedding, and I asked her one day if she thought my face looked any thinner. Even though I gained all that weight back (thanks, PCOS!), she still calls me that. Cutie!

Me to Her - HoneyBear or Honey or Baby. I used to use BabyBear - but somehow that got transferred to the kids.
Her to Me - Nothing. She really isnt into nicknames, I guess.
Me to Her - babe
Her to Me - nothing. No seriously I don't think she's ever consistently had a nickname for me.
When we're being sarcastic we'll rattle off a bunch of names to each other lik: sugar pie, honey bunch, snoockums, love muffin, etc.
2brides and Two* -- does that mean she uses your actual name?
When one of us uses the other's real name, it feels like we're in trouble (a la the thing parents do when they say the first-middle-last names of a kid who's busted a lamp)!

Yup - I'm just J____. ;-) I suppose once in awhile she might call me babe...but not often. I'm going to check with her when I get home because now I feel odd not having a nickname - lol!
we have way to many to list, but i assure you that every last one is cheesy and barf-worthy (ie. honey, sweetie, baby, bay, sugar, ect).
And just like TWB, if we use first names, its cause someone's in trouble

Glad to make you chuckle.
There are already too many references to her being my mom (or the kids grandmother) to even think it is funny anymore. Blech.
Me to her: Jaybear, baby, bay, babe, hunnydrop
Her to me: baby, snookems, beautiful

This made me LOL! I love it! I think it just makes me think of all the silly questions I ask C like "Does this bracelet make me look fat?" and how she indulges me with answers
Us too! If we say Cecilia or Britney - it sounds like someone's mad!
We have tons of names we call each other, and over time many of them have been shortened to the point that they aren't even real words anymore... Making them kind of embarrassing
So I will just share the real-word ones 
Me for her: Baby love and Puffin. In front of other people, I always always always call her either C or Babe. I usually only use Cecilia if I am calling her from far away or we're somewhere loud.
Her for me: Baby love and Twinkle-toes. In front of other people, Babe or Brit - and she sometimes slips and uses one of our non-word names!!

Glad we're not the only ones!

She calls me K. Just K, not Kennedy. I pretty much call her Scoopy all the time but its not my mickname for her, it's one she had from softball back in high school and most people outside of her job call her that. I think there are people on her softball team now who have no idea her name is really Carol.
We don't really have other nicknames for each other, but we do have all sorts of little code words that mean I love you that we use in public that would have no meaning to anyone but us.
