Schnucki
cutie, sweetie pie (pet name)
Pronunciation
/ˈʃnʊki/
Cultural Note
'Schnucki' (also 'Schnuckiputzi') is a playful, saccharine pet name. It's on the cheesier end of the German Kosename (pet name) spectrum and is often used with deliberate over-the-top sweetness or ironic humor. German couples have a rich tradition of creative pet names — the more ridiculous, the more affectionate (in private).
