Koko is Daddy Dog, Koks, Koko-Cola, Love buggy
Fillion is Baby Boy, Fil-o-dendron, Lil Sh*t, Stinker Pot
Just looking at the names makes it seem like Fillion is a lil monster but he's really very very good LOL

Maybe it’s a naughty cute boy thing. Enzo has a lot of them too— poophead being a family fave

When our son (the eldest) was about 10 and misbehaved, Lee called him "Poopy Diaper Head" which made our son giggle and sent our eldest daughter (5 years younger) into fits of laughter.

It is just that! I got Fil at 8 weeks and had all the trials and tribulations of the puppy. Koko was 5.5 and perfectly trained when he got here.

*I* get called Missy Moo also. I probably hate it even more for myself than you do for your dog. Let's just not call ANTONE that!!!!

Yes! Let’s outlaw that nickname for all the Missys out there!!!

Tilly's nickname is Bean. Usually run together - TillyBean. When she finds a patch of sunlight streaming through a window, and lays there to sun herself, she's my BakedBean, and when she's hopping from chair to couch to chair in the living room, she's my JumpingBean.

Destin acquired the nickname 'Possum' the day after I got him - from his cute pink nose and now that it's closer to being all black- he's still the possum. to go with that, Jocu is sometimes 'the skunk' with his black and whiteness. and a friend has a cattle dog with a raccoon patterned tail so he's 'the coon'.

I've always felt pretty bad for Mango in the nickname department. Honey has all the cute fluffy ones, Bunny Rabbit, Honey Buns, Buns, Snuggly...

Mango's first nickname was Gremlin because of her big ears. Then later she was looking at me one day when I happened to see the spiders strip for Hyperbole and a Half (https://tim-byrd.com/2013/05/09/hyperbole-and-a-half-depression-part-two/) and the face just matched so well. So then her nickname was Spidywebs.

In the past few months I've started referring to her as the Baby...but that's based off her perpetual overreaction and worry to most things so still not the most positive of nicknames. Still I wouldn't have her any other way, she's the most affectionate dog I've ever owned and is a big personality.
