A friend told me her husband doesn't like it when she calls him by any form of nickname. She says he only likes it when she calls him by his name.
I don't think there should be a problem if couple have special nicknames for each other.
What's your take on this?

[Ruthk]

Different couple with different choices.
What works for couple A might not work for couple B.
It shouldn't be a problem but to some people lovable pet names sound childish.
If that's what works for her husband, she just has to leave it that way.

Are you sure that man isn't cheating?
What should be a problem in your wife calling you a sweet name?🤷
He might be cheating and doesn't want people to know he's married.

Contrary to your belief, not all pet names are sweet names, especially in particular to some individuals.
Imagine calling a 50/60 year old man a 'baby'.
I'm not 50 yet, but I can't stand that nickname. Call me by my name please, I'm no baby.

There are other matured ones, darling, my love, sweetheart, honey e.t.c
You can't dislike all, except if you're cheating.

Lol, I'm a lady and I'm really not a fan of sweet nicknames, I like it when couple call themselves by their first names.
There are more than a 100 ways to make people know someone is your significant other anywhere you two are and at anytime.

As for me, I wouldn't mind being called a loving pet name if my babe likes it, just don't call me baby.
I prefer names though, but if I notice you prefer me to use a special nickname for you, I will.
In short, anything that makes her happy.
Don't call me baby, any other thing is fine.

😂 What's it with you guys and "baby"?😂😂😂

We'll have a child we both call baby while you call me a baby too. I'm a provider, a protector, a lover and more, I'm not a baby.
You can only call me a baby when I suck or play with what babies feed on. Outside that, no baby please.

😂😂Some guys do not have a problem with it.

My boyfriend and I call eachother baby, we are getting married in few months and it's going to continue like that even after celebrating 100 years together.
My parents till today call themselves by their real names.
In conclusion, anything that works for you.

People who are more driven by emotion could probably prefer lovable nicknames or pet names over real names.
If you are less driven by emotion, you would probably prefer real names or some unusual titles that sounds like respect.
@Op, as for your friend, there's nothing to worry about, like someone said, there are more than a hundred ways to make it obvious someone is your significant other (SO), if that's what her husband prefers she should let it be.

She isn't worried, I just feel like it shouldn't have been a big deal for anyone, we were just talking generally and she used it as an example for something we were discussing.

I will be worried, you can't tell me you don't like all romantic nicknames in this world, tell me what you like instead, if you don't like the ones I call you.

Those people especially men that like titles that sound respectful just have higher ego.
They're ego driven people.

It's just a form of PDA, anyone who generally likes public display of affection would likely prefer being called romantic nicknames, and if you don't like PDA (public display of affection), it will mean little to nothing to you.

[Rayma]

I will be worried, you can't tell me you don't like all romantic nicknames in this world, tell me what you like instead, if you don't like the ones I call you.

Dear Amaria, you don't need to be worried over nothing. I am a woman, yet, pet names or romantic nicknames is indifferent to me, whether it's used or not, doesn't make any difference to our bond. There are 1 million ways to show someone you love them, last I checked, nickname isn't part of the list.
