I saw a post of @PhredWreck and I came up on this idea for a discusion.
My husband is my high school sweetheart and before the school ends, he ended up our relationship too. Yes, he broke up with me. Haha! After 10 years apart, we accidentally bumped to each other at a train station, then from there the courting started.
I have many suitors back then and I pray to enlighten me, to guide me, who should I go and have a relationship with. Then I told to my prayer that if any one of my suitors who will call me "baby" will be the best one for me.
Out of the blue, while chatting on the ym messenger, Abraham (my husband's name) call me as his baby. My heart leaped and I knew from there that he is the guy I am waiting and praying for years.
How about you? What sweet words you use for your husband/wife/partner?

That is really sweet ...In India normally we are not supposed to take our husband's name for some reason, out of respect ? of course the younger generations dont bother with that.. So I call my husband Ri which is not a pet name but a way of addressing someone respectfully!

@Marilynda1225 Yeah, I think it probably is pretty popular. I used honey more times than when I used his own name

90% of the time me and my hubby call each other Baby. Every so often he will call me sweetie, and I will call him My Love, but it is very very rarely we call each other by our given names.

@TexanTornado maybe I am not just expose to an environment that calls their spouse on a first name basis.

It's very heart touching discussion. Though its very personal but I gave couple of sweet names to my Girlfriend. I call her Babu, Janu, sweety, baby etc. She blush all the times I call her with any of the names. Which produce more love among us. We are together for last 2 years. Planning to Marry soon.
