Do you and your significant other have pet names?
Geo's nickname for me is Fraggle Princess and mine for him is Honeybear.
So how about you all? Just thought this would be fun to see if others do this too!

My DH and I do not have pet names. A couple of our friends do, and one day the DH walked through the room and said something to his wife, and added, "Lovey" or something. My DH and I said how sweet, and he asked if we did pet names. I looked at DH and asked him what he'd want to be called, and he said, "Sir." Lol. Good thing we can joke with each other!

I will say "hey, husband", he will say "hey, wife" on occasion, but we usually stick to "Honey".

What a fun question! After 25 years, we've got a few. Our standard list includes Bevis (me) and Butt-Head (him), Number One (him) and Ensign (me), and lately, thanks to hot flashes and some wicked arse mood swings, he has thrown out the occasional Sybil.
But the standards from practically day one have been Babe (both of us), Peaches (me) and Pooter (him).

I called him "Moose"... forever ago I told him to "vamoose" (vamos) and he thought I called him a moose. So ever since then, he's my Moose. My sister and I call each other "seeester" so he is also "meeester" on occasion. He calls me "My lady" or "Co-cheese" (as in, the big cheese).

I call him Husband and he calls me Wife - and for some reason it drives our family crazy so clearly we'll keep saying it.
DH is bigger on nicknames than I am, so he's had others for me over the years, but mostly I ignore them.

DH calls me BooBear or Sexy and I call him Toad or Sir Talkalot (this because he can out talk any woman I know and I am a talker myself). We had to go to unlimited minutes on our phone because of him

Interesting thread! I usually just call him Hon. And a whiny honeeeee, if I am annoyed cuz he hates it.
he doesn't have any for me, except maybe beautiful, and I scrunch up my nose in protest and he laughs.

We don't really have any. He writes "Hunny" on notes/e-mails. (Yes, the Winnie-the-Pooh spelling) Otherwise he calls me "Babe" or "Lover" (I hate that one so of course he keeps saying it).

When we first were dating he used to call me "babe" a lot, he never calls me that anymore. Now it's either, "momma", "sweet pea" or the common "hon"...when he talks to his friends about me in conversations he'll say "the old lady" I've always been "the old lady" even when we were 15!!!! LOL!! I call him "hon" or "daddy". Where's the thread about what we call each other when we're angry????? LOL!!!!!!!!!!
