 Everyone is familiar with this pattern, I think. Your pet has a name. A cool or dignified name, even. Then you start calling them something incredibly stupid. You turn into a gibbering ape when you see them because of how adorable they are, or their name progressively morphs into a collection of unrecognizable syllables, or you have some kind of pet name that doesn't even resemble the original name, or you end up shouting something in indignation. I would like to hear all of the above. Tell me about the weird poo poo you call your pets. Bonus points for including a picture of the weirdo.  This is Hubris. She was originally nicknamed Hubie, and is now varyingly called "Hubie-dubie-doo" (my mom), "Kitten" (my dad), "hoobis" or "BABY" (me), or "YOU GOBLIN!!!" (she is doing something she should not).  The recently-departed family dog, Ginger (RIP), was varyingly called "Buns", "Buns-buns", and "DA BUNS", which I find very interesting because they bear absolutely no resemblance to her original name.

My dachshund, Olivia, is currently being called a mix of Bird, Birdie, Burtle, or Turtle. This is of course perfectly logical. The logic being, as near as I can recall: Olivia becomes Livy Livy becomes Livy Bivy Livy Bivy becomes Livy Bivulini Bivy Tortellini Tortie Tortie Shmortie Shmortle Shmurtle Shmurtle Turtle Turtle Burtle Birdie She is also Lump, Goblin, or a million other things. Burtle tax:

Ferdie responds to "the boy" more than his actual name. His ears turn towards me if I even say the word "boy". He is also known as Baby Man. Because he is extremely baby.
