| called my ex "Baby Angel."  She really, really liked it, though I'm pretty sure it originated by accident, when I couldn't figure out which basic pet name to go with and conjoined them when I paniced...  heh.
 Strangely enough, she always called me by my full name when she was very, very pleased with me.
 "Quinn ____ Maynard," in that special voice with a tight-lipped smile.  Damn, I still get goosebumps remembering that.
 
 *edit*  I'd also like to say that I think pet names are really important in a relationship, if they go beyond your basic "baby" or "honey."  It's a special, humorous bond you can have with your significant other that no one else will ever have.  Sure, love should be full of those, but one more is always good.
