It seems the longer I have my chin, the more crazy nicknames I give him. Sometimes I even sing them to him. First it was Chin-chin-cherie (a parody of the chimney sweepers' song from Mary Poppins), then Chinny-Chinny Bang-Bang (parody of of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang) now it's Chinnichanga (parody of the food chimichanga.)

Am I the only one or does everyone else make up crazy nicknames too? If so then please share away! :)

We call Altair "fuzzy face". I don't know why, just happened. Ezio is "nosy" since he has to know what's happening at all times. Zipper doesn't have one :( For the bunnies, Momiji is "bunneh bunneh" and Dunkin is "The Dunkinator" and I sing a song that's like a super hero song. lol

I shorten their names from Narcissa and Bellatrix to Cissy and Bella... and I also call them both Munchkin on a daily basis. Poor babies are going to be so confused! :)

We call Chia a bunch of things: Chia-Bee, Bee, Lil Feets, Lil Face, Face (I dunno why, her face is so cute I need to address it personally baha), Baby Girl, Baby, Poo, Poo-Face, Pooper... We pretty much just call her anything that comes to mind when we see her I think lol

(Honestly, she will never learn her name cause we rarely ever call her by name..)

Oh a side note, our dogs name is weewee, cats name is mah (not sure how you would spell that lol) or simba, and our other cat's nickname is baby!

I love all the nick names other people posted! :laughitup:

Oh, well if we're adding other animals into the mix, my dogs names are Kelsi and Cody, but I usually call them Boo and Monkey... because that makes sense, lol.

Haha, I definitely do the same thing! My first chin (named Siddhartha) got names like "harta(s)" "lilla chilla" "lilly chinchilly" "chinzilla" and on... When I got Maya it was some of the same, including "yaya(s)" "ya-ster" and "may-ya-ya"... You are not alone!

Xochi is short for Xochiquetzal, so Xochi is her nickname... but I often refer to her as Xochi-lin...

Pocket doesn't seem to need a nickname... Tabitha named her, and everyone seems to love her name, myself included... Oh, when she runs and jumps about, I call her Pocket rocket...

A new violet came home with me on Saturday, but I assume it will be a while before she tells me her name... For now, I call her No Name...

My little chinchiladas have a lot of nicknames. Their actual names are Rufus and Zoidberg. They are often called: Dumb and Dumber, Jerkus and Jerkberg/Zoidjerk, Stinky, Baby, Baby Rufus, Fatty Fat Fat, The Stupids, Bro, Zoidy, Dust-monsters, Zoidberger, and Rufus-berger. I'm sure there's more I just can't think of right now.

Ever since I brought my Abbey home, my mother keeps going around the house saying "Chin, chin, chin-chia!" Like to the tune of the Chia pets jingle! Haha. Otherwise, I just seem to call her Abbey for now.

My dog's name is Osito (Oh-see-toe) and I usually call him 'Sito or Chee-cho, he seems to prefer the later. :p

Vincenza ends up as Madam since she's such a little princess. Cinnamon is Cinnabon and the Spice Navigator from Dune :3
