Am I the only one who does that?

I realized the other day that I call my kids really weird names all the time. Lately I've been calling both of them "little bunker" or "beat-bug." so I thought back and I have called both of them really strange things in the past; some of these names include:
boofa
stink-bug
doofy
boo
punker
dink-face
pumpkin
doody-head
babybug
stinky-beat
So I obviously call them weird names. Mostly I call Ty: "Tyler-Byler" and Jacob I call "Jakey-bake" like (shake'n'bake). But my question is, do most of you call your kids by such weird names, or am I the only one who does that?

I admit to the occasional "stinky-maghee" or "stinkerpot" or even just plain "stink". "Bug" is used at times as well. And of course "Meggy-megan" too.

It's just you. No, just kidding. I think we all do that. Mostly I call Savannah, sissy, and I call the boys dude a lot.

I don't have kids - but I call my nephew Turbo (which isn't all that wierd but it's not his name none the less).
He constantly reminds me, "I'm not Turbo. I"m Skylar!"

Don't forget Stinkiel and it is Cenn Benn (not been).

I have also called them other things, but you don't seem to have that sort of blog for me to express it.

Cade-Bubba, Chunk, and Cader-Bader. Claire= Claire Bear, princess, and STOP THAT...oh, that's not a nickname (but it is used so much that it could be). Jaxon= Booger head, Jax, Bug. Finnegan= Finn, Fatboy, Nacho, Finnerito the baby Burrito, and Finner Finner Chicken Dinner.

Poop-head has been my standard for pretty much every one of them.

Hey I've use "bunker" all the time for my nephews, sometimes its "bunker boo" weird, I must have got it from you or maybe my parents used it and you got it from them.
