No pet names ever given to me by friends or family.

I was given the pet name of "fruit" by one ex-boyfriend (short for 'fruitcake') and "goose" by another because I'd called him a silly goose once, so he started calling me that.

My dearest friend calls me Boris when she is being mischievous.

I used to call my daughter "Sunshine" when she was a baby, now I sometimes call her "sweet pea", or more often "Mai" which is short for her first name Maya.

This is a fun thread!

My friend Vicki and I call ourselves Adele and Lydia, respectively...I forget where we got the names, but we used to write notes back and forth in junior high with our codenames - as if the teachers wouldn't know who we were if we were found out!  ::) :laugh:

My grandmother called my brother and me, Bubba and Sissy, short southern-ese, I believe, for Brother and Sister.  For the years past, and in more normalized times, I would sign cards to Billy -Sissy.

My kitties are Titania and Oberon...they get modified to 'Tania and ObieKitty, tho.  8)

My friends are "Jacks" so I have named them Jack of Hearts (RodneyWY), Jack of Diamonds (Vermont Sunset), Jack of Spades (Offline Chuck Destry), and me, I'm Jack of Clubs. Our friend EDelMar is no Jack, he is an Ennis, so we call him Ennis, E., or Ace (or Pennsylvania Jones or... he has many names)
