I call my dd sausage! It's cute.

I dare say she'll hate it if I still call her sausage at 45 though!

"Tootles 2 - this time it's personal!"

Here in the U.S., calling someone "sausage" would get you punched in the face. It's the same as calling someone a fat cow. Well, here in California it is.

Swedington, I'm SO glad I read the other responses before I advised you to tell your dad to go piss up a rope! He's saying it with love!

Nooo, get brother "I'm Tootles" T shirt, then expose child wearing "I'm Tootles" T shirt, then you and DP take off jumpers to expose "I'm Tootles" T shirts in an "I'm Spartacus" moment !

I call my son Flumpet...

I was 'lovely' , still am, is very funny when dh answers my phone when dad rings and calls him lovely.

ImSoNotTelling · 26/11/2009 21:44

@ further tootles suggestions...

spartacus moment would be brilliant!

Am seriously thinking about getting tshirts etc done...

Ds is Mr Chumbles and dd Officer Dibbles.
Will we scar them for life?

PommePoire · 26/11/2009 23:44

This thread is lovely. Sorry, OP YABU, 'Sausage' is a lovely name, whatever age you are. My dad called me 'Miss Mouse' or 'Mouslet'and since my marriage I've been 'Mrs Mouse.' Irony is intended; I was a very noisy child! I'm still quite loud at 37.

MrsChemist · 26/11/2009 23:57

YABU, I call DS sausage. I haven't got a clue why though. I just started calling him sausage and couldn't stop. Sometimes he is Sausage Monkey.
He also goes by the names Mr Toots (he farts a lot) and Mr Fussypants. I think I may have also called him Commodore Cuddles once or twice.

I was Tina Ticklebum when I was younger. My brother was Tom Ticklebum.
Neither of us are called Tom or Tina.

I'm 33 and my dad still calls me pudding or pud. My DC are both referred to as pickle. All affectionate really.

ZOMBIE THREAD, FOLKS...

BestIsWest · 01/01/2017 07:45

My dad used to call me Fanny too!

I call the dog chicken.

DS was laughing because his friend's dad had called him sausage over the phone in the car (phone was on speaker). They are 19. Friend reportedly said 'I prefer it when he calls me his little soldier'

BestIsWest · 01/01/2017 07:45

Yabu.my dad calls me sausage and I love it Smile

I'm all up for reviving a zombie thread!
My mum and dad used to call me 'Wee skinnymalinkey' and 'Ratfink billy o'sheesh' (No idea - maybe it was from DGPs who were Scottish and Irish?
I call my DSs 2 & 3 monkeys, but DD(18) has 'decided' that one is Pumpkin and the other one Munchkin. She's always been known far more by her nickname of Hobbit than her actual name, to the point where she gets upset if we use her real name, or if her friends use her nickname! Hmm.
I used to use Flumpet quite a lot with DD and DS1 though.
