Cocoa gets called cocoa puff, cocoa bean, cocoa bar and all that hehe. I call him beanie or jelly bean, too. Those two came from the "cocoa bean" one ha. What do you call your little beans?
 
Currently pigless (not for long though!) but previous pigs were Cookie, Guinness, Maisie and Beatrix. Cookie quickly became known as Cookie Monster, as he was a bit of an alpha terror. I had Maisie and Beatrix when my niece was about 2 and she said that Maisie was 'boofle', trying to say 'beautiful', so Boofles stuck! Maisie was a tiny baby when I got her, looked like a mouse, very energetic, used to popcorn a lot, so Poppamouse just came to me. Guinness never had a nickname, though me and my mum would collectively refer to them as peeeeee-yuuuuuugs in a silly voice, just ridiculously stretching out the vowel sounds! In fact I told her of my current plans to get two and she said it for the first time in like 20 years :lol!:

Aww it's sad that your pig-less :( boofles is adorable! And peeeee-yuuuugs is so silly and funny haha :D
 
current ones I keep using at the moment are; woolipig, mr chicken, chickenbaby, gunnipig (said in a silly voice), humpypig, mr humpsalot, stinkypig, savage guinea, mr guinea pig, wild guinea.
 
Collectively, they're the Peegs, with the ee stretched out to varying degrees of ridiculousness dependent on how extravagant we feel that day / how much they're wheeking. Peeeeeeeeeeeegs. Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeegs PeeeegPeegs. Etcetera.

Siggy: Sig, Siglet, SigPig

Auslag: FatPig (she's easily the biggest of the herd, although not the bosspig - that's Siggy), Big Dumb Ginger Potato

Helga: BadgerPig (she has a black stripe down one side of her face which makes her look like a little badger when viewed from that side), Houdini (she likes to escape from things), Dipstick (she is... not a clever piggy; once she's escaped or climbed up a thing she'll get confused and wheek until I help her out/down)

Thorunn: Lil' Trashrat (she looks like an oppossum)

I love these, they sound so regal and pompous (how every pig regards themselves I imagine)!

We often replace words in songs with the word 'Poglet', so we end up singing things such as 'Little Poglet' (Little Donkey) or 'Hey Poglet' (Hey Stoopid).
 
Maisie - Miss Maisie or Maise
Ginger - Ginge or Miss Ginge
Binky - Binks or Princess Binks or Beautiful Binks
Noodles - Big Boss, The Hairy One or Noods
Minnie - Sea Dog or Captain (she reminds me of Captain Dog from Peppa Pig)
Sunshine - Sooty or Newbie or The Little One
 
I call Coco "Fatty" because she's a food obsessed food hog or "Princess Coco" if she's chillin inside her plastic castle hidey because she wont let Patchy in and acts like a total diva. Patchy just gets called "Beautiful Girl" cos she just has the most beautiful personality (most of the time lol).
 
Not all got nicknames, but Amelie was Millie Moo, Ronnie is Mr Ronald Allcock, Barley is Mr B, Mrs Fuzzy is Fuzz bum, Sophie is Soppy pig, Tim is Mr T, Toffee is Toff Toffs, Truffle is Truffs, Maud and Robyn tend to turn into Maudyrobyn, and Tabitha and Thumbelina are Tabs and Thumbles. All other pigs get called by their proper names or their full ones when they are naughty.
 
We (well, I do) call Godfrey Godfrey Croft, because he's always trying to explore and is very skilled at getting into places where he shouldn't be. He knows we can't get him under the chair, and sits looking pleased with himself.
And of course there are the usual names (sweetie, honey, darling) and I do admit to calling them sugarplum. They say they're too manly for such names, but I ignore it:love:
 
I call Angus 'Angee' usually because he's a little wimpy baby and it sounds more like a baby name (pronounced with a hard G sound), William doesn't really have a nickname, he's too cool for that haha. As a pair they get called 'stinky boys' and 'handsome boys'.
 
I don't have any nicknames for ours. Usually they are use "ssssshhhhhhhh" at the end of their names when they are wheeking up a storm.
