baby nicknames

On the radio they were taking about the   nicknames moms & dads call their unborn babies in each state (US only). Some of them were really strange, like:
pork bun
fish stick
john wayne
mini toot
pizza bagel
baby bugaboo
woodle?
lol I'm not sure how accurate this data is because I've never heard anyone from my state call their baby what was listed in that article (search yahoo parenting unique baby nicknames in each state if you're interested).

What nickname do you call your unborn little one?

Ok, we never had a nick name. I have always felt as if Zoey was going to be a girl bc I wanted a boy so I always referee to her as she. Turned out she is a girl and now she goes by Zoey. I have nick names for my dog though.. lol nina-bug

My baby probably won't have a nickname. My first son's name is Joshua & when he was small we called him Joshie Pooh because Winnie the Pooh was the theme of his nursery. I'm 24wks pregnant with a girl & we're naming her Journey no nickname picked out yet

Ours was the little luchadore, because on the first ultrasound he looked like a tiny Mexican wrestler! It was pretty great. Thankfully, he outgrew that lol

We don't really call her it anymore since we know the sex, but we did call her the first mate. We were joking on nicknames and thought it was hilarious.
