Lovers often call each other sweet and tender names. What do you call your significant other?
Lovers often invent affectionate nicknames for each other that become part of their private language for life. These terms of endearment can vary widely, tied to personality, appearance, or coined by chance in jest. We asked Tyumen residents to share what they call each other. The result is a truly sweet and occasionally amusing collection — below.
