Endearing Nicknames for Couples

Couples in Turkey share the same romance as couples worldwide, but their expressions of affection take a unique twist after marriage. It's common for Turkish couples to forgo calling each other by their given names.

Instead, they employ terms of endearment like 'güneşim' (my son), 'aşkım' (my love), 'meleğim' (my angel), and 'canım' (my soul), among others. Turkish culture reserves regular names for interactions with friends and acquaintances."
