    Bump Names

    Here are some of the most popular names:

    1. Little Nugget
    2. Little Miss/Little Man (depending on if you know your baby's gender)
    3. Boo
    4. Jelly Bean
    5. Squishy
    6. Peanut
    7. Snookums
    8. Meepit Beepit (the days of Neopets inspired this nickname)
    9. Little bee
    10. Baby "last name"
    11. Bambino
    12. Bun in the oven
    13. tater tot
    14. baby berry
    15. sweetie
    16. little one

    The great thing about nicknames though is that you get to make them up. Maybe your little one is is quite the kicker, in which case little kicker would be perfect.

    Why do moms and dad create nicknames for baby in the womb?

    The main reason expecting moms and dads create nicknames is to bond with baby. You may not have been able to agree on a baby name just yet, so a nickname comes in handy.

    These are terms of endearment that you might also continue on after they are born, so don't overthink it too much.
