Babe, hun, or whatever? what do you call them?
What do you hate being called?
Or do you simply use their name?

[Cherie]

Nope. Love. Name.

[joeysteele]

No I usually just use peoples names.

[Ammi]

..no, I don't say babe, hun etc and I also don't like to be called things like that either...to me it's like giving someone a generic type gift or something ..and I always like to address someone personally and by their name...the only things I do sometimes say are darling or sweetheart and (other than with to my OH and family)..it's because I actually can't think of a child's name for a second/sometimes my mind just goes blank ..but that isn't that often either...

[Kate!]

I call girls chick sometimes as a term of affection. Men get called sweetie. And I often give people pet names, but only if I'm sure they are alright with it.

[Shaun]

I don't think I've ever done it before, no. Dear, honey and bitch are my terms of endearment

[Black Dagger]

I use bby online, but I'd never call anybody babe or baby irl pmsl.

[smudgie]

Babe is the one I cringe at most.

I do say darling to hubby a good bit, to the kids as well.
Of course we call family and friends love, was very common hereabouts as we were growing up.

[Livia]

Never use babe or hun and they make me stick my nails in the palm of my hand.

I like to call people by their name, but sometimes I use darling or mate... usually covering up the face I can't remember their name.

[reece(:]

Sometimes in a piss take manner.

[Jake.]

No because I'm not from Essex/brain dead

[Livia]

I would make an exception for you though, Jakey.

[Jake.]

Likewise... lol

I use bab and cocka a bit with my friends - but only because they take the piss out of me for sounding more like a midlander every year.

[Kazanne]

I use words of endearment to my friends,but to casualy friends I use names.

[Kizzy]

No, sweets, love or hon maybe if I know you well enough.
I like colloquialisms.

[AnnieK]

No I tend to use peoples names although my best friend is called Claire and I call her Bear and another good friend called Amanda gets Panda.....I'm such an annoying friend

I answer to anything to be honest, as long as its not too offensive, it doesn't bother me too much

[mizzy25]

No I don't use them but I have been known to forget someones name Ive known for years and stood there going erm excuse me can u pass me a straw infact I think I actually called her thingy lol I don't mind being called hun, darling etc I quite like it.

[mizzy25]

P,s I knew someone called Amanda who called herself Amanda panda and actually got a tattoo of a panda on her chest.

[Loukas]

Yeah i call some of my friends babe. Other nicknames i have for my friends are babydoll, sweetie, gurl, boo, bee, gee and homegirl. I grew up in the hood man, allow me init.

[Apple202]

yes to like three people but not in a serious way

[HD]

Only to annoy people.

If a man said it to me, in a serious manner, I'd cut his tongue out.

[Sophiee]
