Names and nicknames and the confusion there of.

I really liked the movie Sin City, and the way Clive Owen refered to Jackie Boy all the time. Now... the girl I'm dating is called Jackie... And I'm really struggling not to call her Jackie Boy all the time. The strange part is as well, that she's anything but blokish. So, I think I'll manage it, but does anyone else has something similar?

Actually, Marky, I do...

I have a younger step-brother called Billy and I just can't help but call him Billy Boy (from the freaky clown movie IT), it really gets on his nerves but I can't control it, it just comes spurting out....

That's good Ada

I call my brother, John Boy as in John Boy from The Waltons.

After a nasty shin-scratching incident in bed, I dubbed my spouse "pterodactyl toes." That one stuck.

No, the strange part is that you feel that urge anyway. Thats just weird... Does she look like Clive Owen?

Really? You really call him that?
i.e.
'Pterodactyl toes, honey, could you get me a cup of coffee?'
'Hi pterodactyl toes, I'm home.'
'Hello? Oh, yes, he's in. I'll get him for you, hang on... Pterodactyl toes! Phone for you!'
