I have called my brother lobs or lobster before and after that its bird because it kind of rhymes with his name. But now i stop calling him that just to make him look more respectable. In university, where we consider ourselves as 'brothers-in-arms', we have a block mate we call Kotai, a perversion of the slang, kote (penxs) and otai (boss, senior, big brother), Ditto (the word dxldo modified) and Kubz, which is the short of Kubur (mean grave, given because the seniors called him ugly like a grave), among others.

I have a younger brother but we don't have any terms of endearment. My bestfriend and I call each other "best" though. It sounds exclusive and I like it. It makes me feel like I really am the bestest friend in the world hehehe I have another close friend whom I call "bebe". It makes me feel like I'm her ate eventhough she actually has a stronger personality than me and she's more mature.
