Nicknames make me smile My favourites to call my novio: PAPI, papeh, papito! Uyyy!
But as for nice cute names, amor, amorcito, tesoro, precioso, mi vida, mi cielo, and if you're feeling *really* cutesy, mi osito.
For girls a lot of those work too...but princesita is a must. ;) I like bebecita too.

Sky,
All those names are nice but is also good to think of names that you will be calling her after 4 or 5 years of marriage and a couple screaming kids. Malparia , asquerosa, inutil, retarda, cara de burro, mamahuevo, y si es cachaca , nalga de tabla.

I'll get there, when I get there!

Unless she is comfortable with it, you can do it. but you don't want to call her "Gatica" or "gatica" in front of others.
I has a sexual connotation. And, yes they might get you wrong and think that your GF is sexually insatiable.
other nicknames:
Mi cielo, preciosa, munheca, Linda (I like this one)

a mi me llaman... princesita, mamiosita, chiquitita, bebita...
I'm sure there are others who call me by different names...
Cheers,

It probably isn't even a real word but I call my wife "pequeñita". We never call each other Papi or Mami! Mongolico is my middle stepson's favorite nickname for just about everyone.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

Sweet Utopia, "Pequeñita" is a real word and a very sweet one. It means little one. "Chiquitica" is a synonym of it.
Some guys call their woman "gorda" or "gordita", but it's better to use this one only if they are not overweight. If they are a little on the heavy side, they make take offense.
I like nena or nenita.
Chao!

Hi Diane! How are you? It's great to see your handle here again! I'm sending you an e mail right away, so glad to see you're still with your honey!

Oh, and I call my husband papito, and bizcocho a lot, but he doesn't like bizcocho because it means toilet seat as well as biscuit!!

mi novio.... my novio hates the papi and mami nicknames....i pretty much stick to baby or tontin when he is being silly. he calls me pollito (i'm blond and little...for some reason this reminds him of a chicken) or chiquitin. i love all the other nicknames people have suggested, but it still feels too weird for me to use. i don't speak spanish (yet) so it feels a bit odd to just call him mi cielo or something like that.
