I would love to hear stories about how you came up with whatever unique name you call your SO. Nothing graphic and don’t doxx yourself, I just think some nice stories like that would be fun for everyone in these ridiculous times.
Not sure if it counts as it’s not really a pet name, but when one of us is looking for the other, we make dinosaur noises. The query has an upward inflection (“raahhhh?”) and the response has a downward inflection (“rahh!”).
At first it was just around the house. Now it’s in public too.

I call her my little Smoddy-Dimble.
