A reader, anonymous, writes (17 June 2009):

for those girls who don't like being called babe, isn't that so much better than him calling you a fatass ? yes, i believe so. so think about that. and its like a compliment, at least he cares. and if you want t call your bf "my little porkchop" go for it, but it sounds like you're about to eat him. and the little probably makes him feel bad about his size...

PsyCookie agony auntI think you could call a guy any pet name as long as they like it.

Me and my boyfriend we call each other "cookie", even in public!

We have gotten used to it so much that when we call each other by our given names, we think the other one is mad!

Yargh agony auntI like personal names the best. I call mine D-Man, My beastie, Yargh, and other names that mean something to us. It's sort of like an inside joke I guess. I find this much more meaningful than your generic honey, sugar, baby, blah-ness.

I think couples start calling each other "Mommy" and "Daddy" after they have kids, because they're setting an example of what their kids should call their other half... then it becomes habit.

Mushgirl agony auntHang on. Cupid Rio's answer... no doubt some blokes get butterflies from having their name replaced with Sugar-Dumpling-Pie (doesn't exactly roll of the tongue, does it...) but isn't 'Daddy' pushing the whole incest-turns-me-on thing a little far...? Jesus Christ, if my boyfriend started bleating 'Mother!' at me every time he wanted to sound caring, I gotta say I'd be more than a tad worried.

Peterk5699 agony auntYou can call him anything you want (nice of course) but if it's going to be 'sweet' names, don't embarrass him by using them in public.

Be creative and think of something you've never heard before

-NothingLasts4ever- agony auntI call my boyfriend all sorts but I don't like going along with the usual ones like babe and hun and all that because everyone else does that.

Why not think of something original that only means something to you and your boyfriend? I call my boyfriend my little pork chop and he loves it!
