As a kid I didn't care for them, my dad used to call me boo. Now that I am older and have kids of my own I think they're almost essential. I mean we have nicknames for everyone..family..friends..co-workers..if you don't have one you don't really feel part of the group..IMO anyway.
My wife calls our son Boo, I tend to call him Little Man or Magoo. Our daughter we call Loo after Cindy Loo Who from the grinch.
