Good one! I also think most parents have nickname(s) for their children,
in cyberspace or in RL. For some reason (I have no clue why) we often
call our daughter "Tweets" (among other endearments). I cannot remember
who started calling her that first - think it was DH - but it stuck.
When she is in a "mood" we call her "Madam" (as in Little Miss Madam).
Mind you, she is only three and a half y/o - I am sure we will think up
a few more when she gets older... And my mother used to call me
"Chookie" when I was in her "good books". If either of my parents
addressed me by my full given name of Catherine, I just *knew* I was in
deep trouble. LOL.
