I use several for Mitzi but the one I use the most is Madam.

Fussy Pants (she can say this)
Cheeky Chops (she can also say this)
Hungry Bunny
Little Miss Neat Beak

I don't have many for Monty. I sometimes call him Little Boy.

I call Manzi, "Manzi boy." And same for Maui, I call her "Maui girl."

Both mine can say their nicknames.

Jane, does Mitzy use the appropriate nicknames at the right times?

She has never said her own name but she says "Monty" and they both know their own names. Jane

She can say her name and her nicknames, usually quite forcefully lol.
