What nickname did you give your baby boy?

We've gone for a name for our baby not that can't really be shortened or made 'cute' for a baby.

I'm just curious if you gave your baby boy a nickname, if so - what was it?

Or Pickle.
Or his name+pants
Or his name+poo
Or Fishy
Or Sausage

DS2 was Sausage, DS3 was Pickle

DS1 was just his name, or baby

Froglet Mcgoo - Ds2.

Both have many more nicknames but these two are the main ones.

DS is "wee man".
