What’s in a name? Well, it depends on who you’re talking about, of course. But what if we were to tell you that your girlfriend’s name might play into the flirty nicknames you use to address her?
Believe it or not, there are a few nicknames that will make even the shyest girl blush, while others will make your girlfriend feel special and adored. Here are 110 flirty nicknames for girlfriends that’ll have you coming up with pet names every day!
What Makes A Good Flirty Nickname for Your Girlfriend
Although it may seem like a simple task, coming up with cute nicknames for your girlfriend can be harder than you’d think. There are two ways to find an ideal nickname: by creating it yourself or letting her pick one out herself. If you want to come up with an awesome flirty nickname for your girlfriend, consider these characteristics of good nicknames when searching for inspiration.
- They Shouldn’t Be Too Common – A flirty nickname should stand out in some way but common ones like Baby, Sweetie and Babe probably won’t do it. You’ll need something that’s memorable but not off-puttingly different from what she might call herself already (unless she likes that kind of thing).
- Don’t Assume – Try not to name anything after a real person without checking first—or, even better, ask her if there’s something specific she’d love to be called.
- Your Partner Is Unique, Her Nickname Should Be Too – One of those oh-so-common pet names won’t quite cut it here. Think about what makes your partner unique (or think back on how you met) and start brainstorming from there! 4.
- One Word Isn’t Necessarily Better Than Two – Some cute nicknames for girlfriends use more than one word—and that can work beautifully as long as they have meaning together and aren’t simply random words put together in sequence.
