What do you call your dh?

[BlessedFox]

When it’s just the two of you, do you call each other by their names?

No he has a nickname which I cant write because it's too odd and so would be outing. He hates it but it's just stuck for me. It comes from an animal that rhymes with his name.
He calls me by my name usually but sometimes calls me 'doll' only for humorous purposes not romance!

I call my DH Mary or babes.

Asshat, knobhead, twatface...there are more. We’re divorcing in the next year 😄

I call him his full name, or either an animal (very weirdly specific) or love

We call each other the same pet name or darling, honey bear, love.

I call him by his name if I like him that day and Dickhead if I don't. Today I like him.

In general conversation I call him an abbreviation of his name (as does his mum and sister) or i call him babe, sexy, or sweetie, depending on the context.

Why do you ask?

I call him darling/honey/sweetie etc. He usually calls me the same.

And I find I get irrationally upset if he calls me by my actually name.

I know he’s pissed off if he calls me by my name! I answer to anything really, he has a handful of names he calls me and I, him.

We usually call each other sweet heart.
But I do tend to call the kids the same.
Rarely call each other by name.
Once called him sweetheart in front of his mum - she laughed 😳

Generally it's 'love'. Tonight it's 'knobhead'

Yes, I just call him by his name, unless I'm talking to the boys, then he's "your dad."

Butt munch. I'm pudding pop- I hate it 😂

We use a shortened versions of each other's names generally. Otherwise he gets a mix of 'my love / Mr / husband / dickhead'

In return I get 'Wife / cutie / Mrs / very-outing nickname'

I actually really like him using my full name as no one ever does he uses it in bed sometimes

Dickhead usually, as an actual term of endearment, although not in front of the DC's. And he has always called me by my surname. We only call each other by our Christian names when we're angry or talking to other people about the other.

I knew our marriage was over properly when he called me by my name instead of the other names we had for each other for the whole time we'd been together.

Babe for both of us. Or if I’m shouting from upstairs his (shortened) name as he never hears me otherwise. He called my actual name the other Day and it sounded weird

His name is only 4 letters so I tend to tack i.e.onto the end.
My name is 4 letters too and I'm never called anything but.
After 50 years, I still love the way he says my name

I call him sweetie and get called the same in return. Sometimes I call him jaan which in hindi means my life. (Excuse the soppiness)

He has a range of nicknames. Generally depends, he calls me babes in a thick cockney accent alot.

His most common nickname for me is an abbreviation of my first name. Freaks memoir when he calls me, my full name. Doesnt sound quite right.

We have some quite sweaty nicknames for eachother too. But all said in humour.

His name doesnt really abbreviate. But he generally goes by, a nickname that comes from his surname. I call him that quite alot

@BlessedFox haha it means your in trouble 😂😂

@Butterflykisses

😂

You’d think so wouldn’t you! But he tells me it’s just because he liked saying my name sometimes. Weirdo!

He calls me by my surname. It's much more affectionate than it sounds. I use his first name. No endearments from either of us.

@BlessedFox haha it never sounds pleasant though it's always sounds quite bitter when he says 'butterflykiss' 😂

We call each other Love usually,we only call each other by our first names if we pissed off lol
