Old Fashioned Terms of Endearment

Taken from Late Modern English Letters and this Insider article and this New Republic article and this Bustle article

Some formerly popular terms of endearment that I think are useful for historical romance or a character who uses antiquated language. Some are a bit sillier than others.

- angel

- beloved

- darling

- dear (or duck or ducky)

- dearest

- doll

- honey

- my heart

- my love

- lover

- mops (or mopsy or moppet)

- macushla (or acushla, an Irish term meaning heartbeat)

- treasure

- sweetheart (also used dove or ladybird)

- sweeting (like sweet thing)

- sugar (or sugar plum)
