I think I want to nickname my girlfriend squint.
Do you think it is a good idea to nickname your partner squint?
Sure, what else should I call her?
It's normal to want a pet name for your girlfriend, but try picking something with a less negative connotation. Squint sounds like you're making fun of her, and her feelings might get hurt.
But it's normal to have a pet name for someone you love. I'm going to go ahead with squint.
Well if the nickname is not negative then I guess it is fine. To me, squint sounds like a racial slur towards Asians. For this reason, it may be a good idea to pick another nickname.
