Petnames between Littles?

[BH_Bambi]

I'm curious.

How do littles feel about being called pet names by other littles?

I know I'm uncomfortable with affectionate-sounding names coming from Caregivers other than my own, but I think I would be fine if it were to come from a fellow little!

I know I often want to call littles "princess", "Angel", "sweetie" etc during our interactions...especially if I'm not in littlespace and my natural Caregiver comes out!

What are your opinions? What do/don't you feel comfortable with between your little friends?

I am comfortable being called a nickname by other littles...

[Guest LittleAnna]

i dont mind being calleed petnames from friends (littles), but i dont call by petnames....i prefer and i use their names

[Guest Rainbow]

like Rapunzel, if i'm feeling like the 'caregiver' of us, i might use a petname with a little i know well. sweets or little miss are good. i think i'd like it reversed as well. i don't have tooo much experience with this. again, i'd have to know them pretty well. not the first conversation ya know.

[Guest Pouty Kitten]

i'm definitely comfortable- i especially like being called "doll".

My best friend is a little and I call her 'baby' and 'babygirl' a lot, and sometimes even princess. I don't feel super caregiver when I say it - just kind of acknowledging in a nice way that she's a cute babygirl!

If we're playing and have been for while together I'm cool with it because it stems from that sense of at easeness between us and do that, making up names and so on. It's just well, playful, I guess.

Not everybody does like it for any number of reasons which we sure don't need to know as the only thing we need to do is when a person politely asks us not to is to respect that and stop doing it with that individual.

I'm so glad you asked- I tend to use terms of endearments to friends here- didn't realize it may be an issue to some  Great question!   I tend to get a little mother henny as well, so maybe that's when the endearment starts.

I use "dear" and "hun" when I care enough about someone to want the best for them. Yet I dislike Caregivers using terms of endearment on me unless I know them fairly well. It doesn't seem to bother me from other littles, it seems some how pure.

[Guest Penny]

I call everyone sweety, Hun, darling and things like that. It's an endearment thing and I'm from the south so hun is just part of the territory lol

 

But if it seems like the other person is uncomfortable or I dont know them well I will back off.

 

I however enjoy terms of endearment.

I only use pet names with littles I know well and only after asking. I have to keep my Yorkshiremess is check though cause where I grew up everyone called each other love or duck.

[BH_Bambi]

I've always been the mum of my friendship group, so everyone is "sweetie", "angel", "lovely" etc. I just have to keep it in check here, because those sorts of terms mean so much more to us littles!

[LittleAki]

I have to be on my best behavior...cause as a southern girl, people tend to get addressed as "sweetie, sweetheart, sugar cube, etc". But that also stems from not always being able to remember someone's name.

 

For me, I don't mind if another Little calls me by a pet name...another Daddy though, and that's a no go. If I respect you, I'll add a "mr" or "mrs/ms" in front of their name, but they have to earn that respect first.

[cutie_patootie]

It all depends on the pet name being used and who is using it ie-if someone I've never chatted with calls me a pet name, that can be rather creepy regardless of whether or not the pet name is nice.  However, if it's someone I know and the pet name isn't rude, it's generally okay with me for the most part.  As for a caregiver... my supposed online Mommy seems to have disappeared from my life so I've been feeling abandoned since late May.  And as ridiculous as this may sound, it has affected me and how I feel about myself.  But... life goes on, right?

[bunnny]

I deff welcome it ^.^

 

I like to call others "critters" like on tumblr I might send mail like "hey critter, hows chuuu ^.^"

[SunnyBunny]

My best friend is a little too and we call each other Sis/Sissy all the time

[PrincessBriiBaby]

If a little calls me kitten or princess (something along those lines) it's ok, I just feel icky when random DDs call me any of those. Daddy is the only DD that's ever allowed to call me Kitten. Hes the only person I call Daddy.

[Trixie]

sure, I'm cool with it.

[Trixie]

sure, I'm cool with it.

[SparklyKittens]

I find nothing wrong with it. I don't mind if other littles call me petnames! I actually like it, as they're showing that they support who I am.

[Daddys__kitten]

[LittleLavender]

I think its okay but then again I call almost everyone "honey" or "Dear"  :$

[Magi]

See I am a little different, I use petnames for everybody. I uses sweets and hun all the time, but its more for when I forget a name and don't want to say hey you or I am familiar with them. I hate forgetting names and it would be rude to just say hey you. I haven't been a little long enough for a weigh in like that I guess, but if people don't tend to like it I try hard to remember their name or the pet name they like.

[Kitten Cupcake]

I don't mind it myself and actually am mostly the one who does it haha. I use hun or sweetie or sweetheart when talking to other littles and when I"m concerned about someone for me it's a natural thing to do? possibly because I have that motherly side but I don't really mind either way ^^

[nymphette]

I'm okay with pet names from other littles, just not other caregivers.
