It is typically pet names or he calls me his own version of a nickname of my name. I think we only use each other's real name when in front of other people.

I actually kinda like it; it is one of those things that I didn't know I liked until he started doing it. I use his name (well, a shortened version) all the time. hotchildinthecity on "How often do you/your SO use each other's names?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-youyour-so-use-each-others-names#post-1664368 Thu, 29 May 2014 06:15:23 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1664368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have so many nicknames that DH is one of the only ones that actually calls me by my name!

And I find it a bit startling when he does actually use my name bc it is so rare! He usually calls me honey or darling. hellocupcake on "How often do you/your SO use each other's names?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-youyour-so-use-each-others-names#post-1664223 Wed, 28 May 2014 23:26:23 +0000 hellocupcake 1664223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ He uses my name to get my attention, prove a point or make me mad! :) he started calling me "the wife" since he proposed and I got so used to it that I can't even take him serious if he calls me by my name. I call him by his full name (everyone else uses his nickname) when speaking directly to him, but in conversation I refer to him as the husband. Our friends even started calling him husband as a new nickname :) haha.

He doesn't use pet names either, so he either doesn't address me or he will say something like "How's my beautiful wife?" It sounds weird to hear my name come out of his mouth!!

(No, no I'm not bothered by it :silly: ) I like when he actually uses my name nadsia on "How often do you/your SO use each other's names?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-youyour-so-use-each-others-names#post-1664209 Wed, 28 May 2014 23:10:55 +0000 nadsia 1664209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Lol, my DH hardly ever uses my name unless he is unhappy. Mostly he just calls me "mommy" or "baby". A few times he has used my name in a sentence and I always check to see if his giving me attitude lol. Like a text that says "nadsia, I'll be home at 7" I'm like--am I being sassed right now lmao.

He doesn't even call me by pet names either, I guess he just never really addresses me haha But I call him by his name allll the time, in addition to "babe" and "honey". Do you use each other's names?
