Popular Cute Nicknames For Your Boyfriend

The nicknames you use for your boyfriend should describe some aspect of his personality. The fact that he calls you 'babe', instead of some short form of your original name, gives you the incentive to call him 'cute names' not necessarily a modification of his original name.

Quick Tips for Choosing the Perfect Nickname for Your Boyfriend:

Tip# 1: You can make a nickname out of his name, but be careful as some guys might find it offending. For example, Miggy for Miguel and Jake, Jakey for Jacob and Dally for Dallas. You can also consider a combination like 'Ally Bear' or 'Ally Poo' for Alex and 'Andy Roo' for Andrew.

Tip# 2: Don't base the nickname on negative traits your boyfriend has.

Tip# 3: There are men who might find some nicknames offending because of the negative feelings they associate with it. Like for instance, a nickname his ex-girlfriend used to call him with. So if you find that your guy is not reacting positively to that word you used, use some other name instead. There are plenty of cute nicknames out there, so go for something else.

Tip# 4: Base your nickname on the nickname your boyfriend calls you with. For instance, if your boyfriend calls you 'kitten' call him 'tiger'. If he calls you 'Princess' call him 'My Prince'. You can also use names of popular comic/movie/Television characters, like for instance:

Romeo and Juliet

Superman and Supergirl

Tarzan and Jane

Xena and Hercules

Pebbles and Bam-Bam

Cinderella and Prince Charming

Daredevil and Electra

Batman and Catwoman

RobinHood and Marion

Neo and Trinity

Tip# 5: If your boyfriend knows any other language like Spanish or Japanese for that matter, find out a romantic equivalent in that language and use it as a nickname. For instance, 'Mi Amor' which translates to 'my love' in Spanish, or 'Cheri' which translates to 'dearest' in French.

Pumpkin? Hahahaha....
