Nicknames/Pet Names - The worst you've ever heard?

IvaBigWun

I heard an American woman last night call her husband "wookams" and I felt like ordering a double vodka and coke just to block her out.

Do Irish still go on like this?

"Sugar Pie", "Sugar Plum", "Baby Cakes", "Cuddle Buns"


Baby talking in public should be viewed as a federal crime, which will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.

Baby talking in private is just wrong.

Heyes

Apple pips....

has to be one of the worst/best ive heard...although i do know it has a couple of meanings.. :rolleyes:

Megatron

I've heard someone refer to the Bf's as Cuddle Monster ...

Course she decided to let this slip out infrom of the football time he plays in


I had one from a ex , but now every calls me it so it isn't as bad.

joejoem

Mines Foxy, I like it. Years ago I had thought of getting it tattood on my back. I'm glad I didnt, that would have looked so camp

Edit - universal nickname, not a lovey dovey nickname

Didn't I tell you to get help with that? :rolleyes: pfft any excuse these days. Right, to answer your question.
My ex called me 'pussycat' (cringe) and worse still 'jaws' (not a word..)

I had none for him really. once you start calling him 'you', and 'him' to your mates its time to pack his suitcase and drop it outside his mammies

connundrum

Shnuckums.. Dunno how to spell it?! Feckin hate it though..

Oh and babyface, nothing worse than seein a 6'4 guy bein called babyface by his missus.. *shivers*

I was called stumpy for a long while because i got naked and streaked at the rocky horror show. Thank god that ended. Now its just grimes.. There was no truth in the stumpy rumor I assure or at least my girlfriend assures me

IvaBigWun

I overheard a couple near us last night constantly refer to each other as "silly moo"

Whats wrong with these people??

daiixi

an ex used to call me "dear" which made me feel very old

Ruu_Old

I have heard "schnuckems" or whatever way you spell, either way it is just a loada bolleex. *punch*

:|

I agree that they're stupid and sometimes disgusting. But then again, what can you call someone when you need to be affectionate/compassionate/caring?
Eg
"I just fell off a cliff and broke my back"
"Feel better chicken/honey/petal/mary???"

It's a problem i have

The_Minister

I've had:
Foxy (don't ask.)
Gigantor
Sass.
Chief (from one flew over the Cuckoo's nest)

My friends went around calling me Sass for about two weeks, before they would tell me what it meant. Turns out it comes from Sasquatch.

Pighead bets your lady calls you "The Thread-Resurrector". You call her "My Imaginary Friend"

i worked in America for almost a year ... for recreation i played soccer for a local team during the summer months

back then, soccer was a minority sport and hispanic people made up the largest percentage of players, after the first game i played they bestowed on me the nickname 'gaucho', apparently for my robust style of play ...

i thought it was kinda cool, right up until i left the team, at which point they told me it was spanish for asshole!

thanks guys ...

also ... i knew a chap in primary school who soiled himself, and became known for evermore as 'gicky'

"Naked Níl"

Níl - Irish for Niall

Naked - At a house party after a 5th year social, woke up dyin for a drink half way through the night in me boxers, go down stairs thinkin all will be quiet, fall into a room full of girls. Bit embarassing considering we were all at 'that' age... Funny thinking back on it though

Unpossible

the gf calls me Xiao Gou Gou (because Im born the year of the dog)
I call her Xiong Mao (she loves pandas*) or Hou Zit (or however monkey is spelled in chinese), she was born year of the monkey.

Recently her friend keeps calling her JiaJia (her name twice, in china its used on a young person or child), I think its cute so I use it too sometimes.

I dont mind using those names when in the west and nobody understands, but I have to admit I felt a little embarrassed using them in china.

Its the only relationship where I have had petnames with my partner.

*edit: oh and because she says chinese people refer to rings under you eyes as panda eyes, and she didnt get much sleep for a few weeks last year because of exams, so I got stuck calling her panda from that too

I have a friend who calls his girlfriend "Chicken". I think he often does it without realising. I was out for a meal with them once and overheard him say - "eat your chicken, chicken"

Most insensitive ever : A chap I used to work with years ago had a very bad case of all-over-body acne (requiring major drugs to keep it under control). He was called "brunch". Ouch!

Ha ha ha ha ha oh I had a good laugh at that! I suppose you could be an arsehole of a cowboy

Petal is one that really gets me. My cousin calls his missus petal and I just wanna beat his head in everytime he says it :mad:

r3nu4l

A friend of mine refers to his gf as 'snugglebuns'.

Another friend calls his gf 'c*nty' :eek:...apparently it has a different meaning to them (I don't know?) but they don't seem to care how it makes them look when he calls her that in public...

I once referred to Mrs. r3nu4l as 'her indoors', seeing as how I now live in Engerland...won't be doing that again anytime soon, at least not within earshot

Ah very much like John and Mary from Father Ted then.

~Rebel~

in terms of individual ones (not the usual, like baby, sweetie etc)

she calls me goggly bear (monsters inc) and Paulus.

i call her Wench and Pedanticus. in a cute way of course.

Captain Corelli

The word 'pet' has been retired from my every-day lexicon: it is reserved for my current gf(maybe I can use that as my xmas present this year).

She calls me either 'sexy Irish bartender' or 'f*ckface', depends on her mood is I guess.

Overly-luvey names are kinda weird. The weirdest 1 I have heard is 'soupy'. I heard a guy call his gf that. I lost all respect for him...

watna

I love pet names! I like babytalk too. I think it's nice to see coupleas all loved up. I hate to see couples who don't even seem to like each other much, especially couples in restaurants who don't speak and eat their food really fast.

I called me ex fatty because he was built like a twig (over 6ft and something ridiculous like 10 stone)

I call my current bf pet. He likes that because he's not from Ireland and he thinks it makes me sound exotic and Irish!

NextSteps

I've a friend who calls his girlfriend 'Princess'. Bleugh.
