Default Do your cats have nicknames?

I usually call my cats something other than their actual name, and I was
wondering if anyone else does the same. My female cats usually end up being
called "Sweetie", although one was occasionally called "The Great and
Powerful Jennifer" -- as in, "I don't care if you ARE the Great and Powerful
Jennifer, you can't have my steak!"

My current boy cat, Sundance, usually gets called "Little Guy." That
started when he really was little, but it stuck. Now he gets called
variants of that, such as Pesky Guy, Cutie Guy, and Purry Guy. Of course,
there's the good old standby, "Little Pest"!

Heheh, I call one of mine Monkey 'cos she's always climbing things
and thinks she can leap from curtain to curtain to shelf! Otherwise
they're called 'cutie pie', 'poppet', or 'cheeky face'. Heh.

Well I have been known to call Isis the following: The Queen, Queen Isis,
Your Majesty, and My Little Black Panther. Jade on other hand has been
called Tiger Stripes, Princess Jade and the Jade Dragon.

Amber is frequently called "sweetie pie" and Tiger is "Tige". I don't
want to know what they call me!

I shouldn't be admitting this in public, but while technically their
names are Callie and Flower (for the skunk-like longhaired tuxedo) -
most of the time they are addressed as - respectively - Boopie and
Cutie. What scares me is they are starting to answer to these as well
as their formal names.

What have I done?????? :

Yup. Pandora is "brat." Persephone is "purrt," which is just that chirping
sort of noise she makes, but she answers to it. And Peaches... hasn't
acquired a nickname yet beyond the basic shortening of her own name. I've
had her for a year, and she doesn't have a nickname... but the foster I've
had for two months is named Molly, and her nickname is "Bug." Hmmmm... I
think I'll call Peaches "peabody," as she pees on any clothing left on the
floor.
