Bitsy Pookums

I like Calvin & Hobbes

Name+Surname.

I’ve got a policy of always having that pattern since I had 5 Michaels, 3 Daniels and 4 Davids with no way of telling them apart.

First name Last name but she didn’t like it so now it’s First name ❤️ Last name, lol.

Their name with I.C.E. (in case of emergency) in front of it.

Their name

His whole name: first, middle, middle, last. I also have him saved as my emergency contact.

I just put people’s names in my phone as their actual first and last name; if I call them something else I put that name in the nickname field.

Super basic “skill” to do this. 😒

MOO, My Only One.

It’s just because when saying it sounds like a cow mooing

By her first and last name

When we were not-quite engaged and doing long-distance, my wife ganked my dumbphone and quickly edited my contact from {her name} to {her name}-mywife, no spaces, no capital letters. So now, twenty+ years later, that’s what it still says, and that’s how I address greeting card envelopes to her.

My husband is in my phone with a nickname of his old name. He took on a new name from our culture when he became a naturalized citizen, but I never changed it and he doesn’t mind.

I was in his phone as “[my name] from café X”, until he got a new phone last year. The first thing he did was take me on a date to a new café and proudly enter my number into his new phone as “[my name] from café Y”.

Domino’s Pizza

Full name with maiden name and a note that it’s my wife (in case I’m hit by a bus or something).

Well, I call mine by her name. But also she has two entries in my Contact list.

One that I created when we met many years ago.

And another one for the secondary number/phone she got secretly, before she was diagnosed with mental health issues and started taking the appropriate medications.

I won’t give out the exact details of the alias she created for her crazy secret life… But here’s the photo I used for that Contact entry.

This ironically became her primary Contact entry, as her other phone was older and the newer one was never actually a secret anyway, she just didn’t know I knew about it, and she didn’t need two phone’s after she got her shit sorted out.

But I’ve left that as her contact picture to ensure I don’t ever forget who she could turn back into if she stopped taking her meds regularly.
