Since DS was a baby I have called him "Mogs". I think its because he reminded me of Mogwai in Gremlins when he was first born!!! (Bad mother I am), even now I shout "Mogs" in the street and he will respond to me.

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

dd comes up with some classics for her little brother. The most recent being "chubby head" when he had his haircut and looked rounder in the face as a result, and "Mr Rabbit Pants" when the contents of his naapy resembled rabbit poo ! Mr Rabbit pants has stuck for a while now -poor kid.

Munchkin or munch/munchie from the Brummie verb to munch (cuddle)
Noodle when she is silly/funny
Dottie Lottie.
Your daughter, when she is naughty.
"Sour-pussandgrumpy-face" plagerised from BlackadderII (sung in a sing song annoying way)when she is having a tantrum.

My names for dd are all variations on a theme. We called her Boo from the start, and that just escalated. She's been Boosters, Boost, Booey, and then it just got worse. Now it's Booey Bumface, Booey Bumcheeks, and more often than not I just call her Bums I don't even realise when I call her in public that I am just shouting BUMS at the top of my voice The poor girl......

chickee
chickadee
bubs
bubbaloot (like the barbaloots in Dr Seuss....she also has a bubbaloot suit of course!)
bubbalooty
munchie (hey hey she's a munchie....)
Jennifer Jones (sung to the tune of Roobarb and Custard....)

Yes DH and I have become songwriters since DD was born...she seems to have encouraged our creative streak in a very strange way. Has anyone else suddenly felt the need to nick other people's songs and change the words to turn them into personalised seranades?
