Pet names for children based on food

[Wakeover]

During DD's friends staying over, I discovered that their parent-given nicknames are all food-based!

Pudding, Pickle, Noodle and Cupcake.

Not uncommon, but I just wondered which other foody nicknames are in use out there in MNland? Can we get through all the food groups?

My brother was called Teapot when we were younger, does that count?

I called my nephew a Silly Sausage once and he was absolutely baffled at me
He was like "A SAUSAGE?! I'm not a Sausage!"
Was so cute!

Showed DH my pregnancy app when I were around 5 weeks pregnant and he said the picture looked like a pork scratching. Currently got our 12 week old pork scratching asleep on my chest!

Petit pois

Oh and chicken

I call DD honey pie and dumpling, DP calls her muffin. She so rarely gets called by her actual name that it’s a miracle she even knows what it is

I call my son Pudding!

Not food, but when I was little my mum called me bum-fluff! I don't know why but it worked.

Oh I've thought of another, we used to call our son anything of the pork variety; pork-pie, sausage, porker etc.

My Mum, who I adore, used to call me a Dozy Looking Crate Egg when she was pissed off!

It’s not her main nickname, but I occasionally call my two year old a sweet potato just to get her indignant reply: “No I’m not a sweet potato, I’m a normal potato!”

DS is honey bun

Yep, I can see a theme here... she gets chicken pie, bean, sausage pot...

Our six week old is known as Goujon

DS2 is Pudding more often than he is his name. I also call him my little marshmallow sometimes as he is quite soft and squishy, especially his cheeks.

DS1's nickname isn't edible, I think but as it's a fictional creature I'm not entirely certain. I sometimes call him rump steak though, as he has a big bottom but not so much since he is out of nappies.

I was always known as lamb chop - chop for short

Swede Head

Mine is often a Funny Onion

Tumshie- turnip. Then much later found out it also means someone who is daft. Oops.

Dumpling
Munchkin
Pudding

I call DS2 my little cashew nut. It's because he curls up in that shape!

Honeypot
Honeybunch
Rumblebumpkin
Sausage
Plum Pudding

Thought of some more
Weenybeaner and Beanyweener
Ditto with CherryPavlova: Dumpling

Tatey. Short for potato as she loves them.

My DS is Spaghetti, Sgetti, sget, spaget. I got called it as a teenager, but I can't remember why or when I started calling DS it. But it's definitely stuck - although no one else calls him a nickname....

I call my DCs “noodle” when they are being silly.
DS became “Spud” when he was a baby/toddler because he used to steal potatoes from the cupboard and hide them all over the house
DD2 is such a pretty baby, she’s always been my little laleczka (little dolly)
