[ SARCASM FOLLOWS ]

- Fuck buddy

- Friend with benefits

- Hugh Hefner

etc

[ End sarcasm ]

In all seriousness, I would respect the following nicknames:

- Hun

- Babe

- Dear

etc

And to tell you the truth, I even like a little "sarcasm" in MY life:

- "Hey jackass, come shower with me"

- "Okay you old and ugly son of a bitch, let's go to my favorite restaurant"

** These types of nicknames are only appropriate with a certain level of respect developed within your relations with your man. Try to avoid these unless you both have agreed to experiencing a new way of life. These statements are not made to be "rude" or intentionally harmful, both parties now that this is playfull comedy in an aggressive manor... Which in my opinion helps the relationship stay sane, lol **

I actually like being called by the first initial of my first name: "J". She is the only one who does it that I actually like it from...I like others to call me by my full first name.

I don't like baby, sweetie, Hun, babe...it usually means she wants something...

Well anything would be find, but ask him first like I call my friend/crush bear, because he is always warm and reminds me of a bear for some reason lol, but before I started calling him Bear I asked him if I could call him it and he said okay, but he might not answer to it, so I told him to pick and he couldn't come up with anything, so he said he would answer to it lol. He doesn't know why I call him that, but he anwsers and calls me by my middle name, but most of the time it's Cutie. So think about something that goes with him or reminds you of him, because nicknames makes you feel like you have a special place for him or he has a special place for you.

In my experience one of the things guys like being called is "handsome". I always call them handsome when I'm in a relationship, I think it kind of boosts their ego (the good one!). Plus I've always thought that if I was a guy I'd love to be called like that lol

Well this guy seems to agree with me:

Our name.  We like hearing our name, especially when a girl says it. Say it sweet and it's the best

matthewm · Answer

What do you wanna' call him? As long as it isn't "that a**hole" or something along those lines, I'm sure you can't go wrong =]     Plus, if the guy really has a problem with it, I would think the guy would say something.

LoveSummerForever · Answer

Any loving affectionate name is good , personally I love when a girl says my actuall name in affectionate way I think its more the way you say it than the words you use like I know a couple whos affectionate name for oneanother is actully rude but they say it in a loving way you know, if you like basicly , it your choice of tone and not your choice of words.

Hope that all makes sense!

ThoughtCleric · Answer

People in general prefer to hear their own name. Its a sign of respect and its actually also a popularity call out. Using names like honey, cutie or babe would be more useful in bed. Women like that hot whisper in her ear and guys want that heavy moan. Be respectful out of the bed and be less formal in bed.

Rangersno01 · Answer

Hi,

Well for my boyfriend I would call him Handsome, Sexy, Honey, (Babe) lol Gorgeous, all diffrent names but there ain't many to pick from and it's what your comfortable calling him that counts.

Hope this helped

NearlyNapping · Answer

Pet names and things like that are personal. It's something that is special between the two of you. You should call him whatever you feel. If it comes from you and is sincere then he'll like it. It's what's behind it that counts, not the word itself.

Starling · Answer

Sexy and babe work just as well for guys. I'd say cute too, but some guys don't like cute so much. I guess it all depends on the guy.

Frost_Byt3 · Answer

I'm fine with being called anything that was meant to be endearing. She could call me "my little avocado" and I'd think its sweet if it has some meaning behind it.

Unit1 · Answer

One girl called me pony. I liked it.
My girlfriend calls me Katze 🐱 (cat) since i love to hug and cuddle.

I liked being called pony for some reason. Or unicorn.

Handsome works too. Sweetie. My Love.

Hidden_P · Answer

People have different pet names naturally.

I automatically say hunny or sweetie. I sometimes say baby. But that’s just me. If he told me he hated it I would try to stop but it’s just natural to me.

kenworth · Answer

I like Hun or Honey. Un Less i did something to make her mad like track dirt in on the floors she just cleaned then its usially my full name. Followed by some not so nice words

Crystallis · Answer

I personally find it adorable when a girl I fancy gives me some really cute names. I'm sure your boyfriend will like it too since he always calls you like that as well :)

9teen · Answer

Their name, probably. I think most guys aren't really fond of nicknames like most girls are and I do understand because it can be quite cringey.

xBec14x · Answer

Normally I call my boyfriend babe, cutie, handsome, sexy, his name. Sometimes as kinda jokes we'll call each other bitch or dick when we're being funny lol

Stockton · Answer

Personally I love being called for dinner hell I love being called for a meal. Better than that like being called for sex. That is of course what you mean right haha

Mexicoman101 · Answer

Cute is bad, cute makes you something that could concievably be replaced by a little puppy dog. Babe is not bad, sexy is good, hot is good, I'm not too picky beyond cute.

temptationfalls · Answer

My girlfriend actually calls me Punkface and I love it since I feel special and unique hahahaha. But if a name can't be created, Babe, Hun, Dear, etc.

Rafael5149 · Answer

Depending on the guy. If a guy is serious with his emotions, then formal words like "handsome" would definitely work. However, emotionally open guys like cuddly words, so get creative ;)

bamesjond0069 · Answer

When I say something like "Time to go. Get in the car." And she says "Yes Sir" its so fucking hot.

Or she curls up next to me and says "I love you Daddy" its so freaking cute.

I can't be with someone who doesn't talk to me like that.

colonthree · Answer

I usually go by the short version of my name, but I once dated a girl who insisted on calling me by the longer, more formal version of my name. It was a little strange at first but I ended up enjoying it quite a bit

Nicolás25 · Answer

Anonymous · Answer

Every guy I've dated seems to enjoy being called something different. But they all like it when you have a special pet name for them during sex. It turns them on whenever you say it and is a cute code word for when you're in the mood.

Scarlettblaze · Answer

I call my guy: -Babe -Handsome -Hot Stuff -Sexy -My love And then I sometimes will use playful variations on his name. Or call him daddy. 😂

andreasderjuengere · Answer

My name is good enough, I think. I would hate some nonsense/ridiculous constructions (did I hear 'Poochie' somewhere?). Humorous ones would be allright ('Boss', 'Master', 'Guru' and such).

gingerrr · Answer

Anonymous · Answer

I think names like "baby" or "babe" work just fine. (especially if you use a cute little voice, they can't help it but smile). It always way more affectionate if you give them names that only he knows the meaning of... like something special that happened.

Anonymous · Answer

I love calling my boyfriend "love". And when I'm upset about something, I pout and say "but babe" and he thinks that's cute. Also he loves sarcastic nicknames that I sometimes tease him with.

Caaarl · Answer

Eh who needs pet names anyways. Babe, hun, and stuff are ok I guess. But I don't understand why the need for an impersonal greeting.
