No matter how informal people are (or say they are), there are some forms of address that are simply inappropriate between two people if they haven't developed a personal relationship that merits their use: pet names (like "Snookums" or "Honeybunch") and terms of endearment ("my dear", "darling", "honey", and the like). Now, add in stalkers, obsessive villains, or powerful enemies and an otherwise inappropriate pet name becomes downright creepy. Another term along these lines that more indicates frustration than any additional creep factor is "buddy" or "pal", which when used between strangers often indicates that a fight is about to break out soon. It implies a non-existent closeness, or that the addressed somehow belongs to the addresser. Even if the one using these endearments doesn't mean the target harm, there's an undercurrent of wrongness in the way the addresser thinks and acts that make them seem mentally unstable and dangerous. (Unless it's just an act designed to irritate or distract the enemy and get him off his game.) Usually, the nicer the pet name is, the worse the fate in store is. A form of Casual Danger Dialogue, and a menacing variation of Flirting Under Fire. Some forms of "Take That!" Kiss function as a non-verbal variant. Generally a "milder" form of I Have You Now, My Pretty. Casual or informal forms of someone's name (like Tom for Thomas) don't count as this unless First-Name Basis is already inappropriate. Contrast with Hey, You!, where the use of inappropriate forms is meant as an insult. Contrast with Insult of Endearment, which is the inverse situation where people express friendship with insulting language; in some cases, both may be used for irony and contrast, and Familial Chiding . See also With Due Respect, where using formal terms of respect implies the opposite. May be rebuffed with "They Call Me MISTER Tibbs!." |

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Fake King Zant keeps addressing Midna as "my Midna." Although the game does not specify the reason for this, it's a common fan theory that he was one-sidedly in love (or at least obsessed) with her. | |

Ratigan from The Great Mouse Detective does this quite a bit, partially due to him being so Faux Affably Evil. He refers to his henchmen as "my friends," the drunken mouse as "my dear Bartholomew" (moments before feeding him to his cat Felicia), his righthand bat as "my dear Fidget" (moments before attempting to feed HIM to Felicia), Olivia as "my dear" and Basil as "old boy." | |

Tokyo Ghoul: Kanae in the sequel manga calls Mutsuki "kitty cat". In the dub of the anime, Tsukiyama refers to Kaneki as "sweet Kaneki." That this is a description one would normally apply to one's food is quite relevant. Kureo Mado in the dub calls Hinami "sweetheart" and "honey". Eto calls Kaneki "my dear Kaneki". Torso calls Mutsuki "my Tooru". After Furuta defeats Eto he comments that he has Rize's kagune "just like my dear Kaneki". Sasaki/Kaneki would always be called "Sensei" by his doting and adoring subordinate Mutsuki. After Mutsuki becomes more villainous and their attraction to Sasaki/Kaneki is warped due to tragic circumstances, the term "Sensei" becomes sinister. |

Ranma ½: Kodachi Kuno is (one of) Ranma's obsessive Stalker with a Crush even though Ranma can't stand her, and she refers to him as either "Ranma-sama", "sweetums", or "darling". While Tatewaki refers to girl-form Ranma as "pig-tailed girl", "my love", "my Venus", and Akane as "my dear Akane" and the like. His other stalker (and fiancée), Shampoo, calls him "airen" (husband).* Tokyo Mew Mew: Kisshu, Ichigo's stalker and enemy, refers to her with such names like "honey", "my toy", and "kitty cat". |

Arrancar Catalina Falza and Kyoka Suigetsu both seem to have a habit of referring to Yuzu as "Yuzu-chan" in the Bleach fanfic Chasing the Moon while fighting her. Given the context, it's probably not meant to be friendly. It's worth noting that no one tries to pull this with Karin. | |

Like a Dragon series: Goro Majima is very fond of calling his rival Kazuma Kiryu "Kiryu-chan." It becomes increasingly unclear if he's using it as this trope, an Insult of Endearment, or an actual term of endearment. In Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Ichiban is often referred to as "Ichi" by Masumi Arakawa as an Affectionate Nickname. When his superior Jo Sawashiro uses the nickname, however, it's solely meant as his way of talking down to him. The same goes for Masato Arakawa, especially when he becomes Ryo Aoki and it isn't until the very end of the game that he uses the nickname in a genuine fashion. |

Later she condescendingly calls her "my sweet summer child" when explaining about the heist.

Tyki of D.Gray-Man generally refers to Allen as "boy". Allen himself is on a first-name basis with the Noah, strangely enough, but Road calling him just "Allen" is considerably creepier (the others constantly use his full name, "Allen Walker", even to his face). | |

Blue Exorcist has this in the first meeting between Rin and Satan. The latter calls the former his "darling boy" and says Rin could just call him "daddy." This is 1) while possessing Rin's adoptive father and 2) before he attempts to drag him to the demon realm. | |

From Naruto: Orochimaru adds ''-kun'' to the end of the name of almost any young male character he comes into contact with (Itachi-kun, Naruto-kun, Sasuke-kun, etc.). Kind of creepy if you think about it. He refers to Sasuke as "my Sasuke", and Naruto and Sasuke as "cute" and "beautiful" respectively. The Filler Villain Fuka refers to Naruto as "boy" (in the Japanese version) and "cutie" and "sweetie" (in the English version). Kabuto also refers to Naruto and Sasuke as "Naruto-kun" and "Sasuke-kun" as well. |

The Joker's many nicknames for Batman. To name a few there is "Batsy", "honey pie", "my detective", "bats", "my dear Batman", "darling", "honeycakes", and "my dear Dark Knight". It usually depends on the author whether this is an expression of twisted affection, if the Joker is just using it to irritate Batman, or if this is another example of just how obsessed he is with the Bat. | |

RWBY: Adam repeatedly calls Blake "my darling" and "my love" during their confrontation in "Battle of Beacon" and "Heroes and Monsters." Word of God is that he was abusive in the past, so it's a very dark invocation of the trope as Adam begins hurting her and those who she loves. Big Bad Salem tends to address minions and enemies alike with infantilizing terms like "child" or "girl", and gently calls General Ironwood by his first name when demanding the total surrender of his nation. Rather than coming across as malicious, it serves to show just how much she views herself as above everyone else on Remnant. |

During her introductory scene in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, Preica Testarossa refers to her daughter as "my dear Fate". There is zero parental affection in her voice (not to mention the fact that the line was immediately preceded by a double dose of child abuse and victim blaming), but Fate is too much of a Love Martyr to see the obvious subtext and takes her words at face value. | |

Used by multiple characters, mostly towards Luna in Luna Lovegood and the Chamber of Innocence. Some common buzzwords in the terms used towards her are "sweet," "pure," "little," "dear," and "innocent."

In The Dresden Files, Lara Raith tends to refer to Harry Dresden as "wizard mine" and is quite affectionate with him. She also makes it clear that she doesn't want him to be another thrall of the White Court, but rather wants him as an equal partner to her. She also refers to Thomas as "brother mine," so it's up to personal interpretation as to whether it's antiquated linguistics or not, since she also acknowledges the sibling bond between herself and Thomas. Queen Mab occasionally uses terms like "darling child" (in between using other terms of the "puny mortal" type,) and Harry's Fairy Godmother does, too, though far more frequently. The Godmother's case is a strange example of this trope because everything suggests that she is genuinely fond of Harry in a vaguely maternal way but still manages to be creepy as hell. |

Supernatural: In 5.10 "Abandon All Hope...", Lucifer addressing Castiel as "Hello, brother" before trapping him inside a ring of holy fire so he can raise Death unimpeded and destroy the world. The angels are all technically siblings, but Lucifer's creepily calm tone implies a level of brotherhood and mutual comfort that is entirely absent in the following conversation. In 6.20-6.22, the demon Crowley calls Castiel "kitten" and "sweetie". And then there was also Alastair and Dean. With all the implications of "poking and prodding", Alastair acting like a stalker ex-boyfriend and even calling Dean "Daddy's little girl". Lucifer referring to Sam as his "bunkmate" and calling him his "little bitch in every sense of the term". |

Discussed a few times in the Discworld novels, including The Truth, as seen in the page quote. Given similar treatment is the word "pal" from the mouth of the guy in a dark back alley carrying a heavy, blunt weapon or "friend" from a bar/inn/pub owner. Also played for laughs, as in Small Gods when Om addresses a Tsortean solar deity with "Hey, sunshine?", just before hitting him over the head. In Wyrd Sisters, during an argument between Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax, Granny objects when Nanny calls her "my good woman", retorting "I'm not anyone's 'good woman'!" In Reaper Man, Ludmilla Cake can tell her mother's spirit guide One Man Bucket is about to lose his temper with another ghost because of the way he calls them "friend": "He always calls people 'friend' right before he hits them." In the short story "The Sea and Little Fishes", the part of Mrs. Earwig's patronising speech that really gets Granny's back up is "I'm telling you this as a friend". Later, Nanny reflects that no one remotely friendly would say that. Vetinari addresses Vimes as "my dear Vimes" on a couple occasions. It's only vaguely menacing, though; mainly he's just being condescending about Vimes' cynicism being slightly less absolute than his own. He also addresses Moist von Lipwig as "my dear Mister Lipwig" once, while implying he might throw him in the dungeon, and occasionally calls other people "my dear ____" as well. It goes with the rest of his send-up of a certain stock villain type thing. Night Watch: The Agony Aunts, those terrifying and implacable enforcers of Seamstress justice (especially in the days before Vetinari), like to refer to people they have at umbrella-point as "dearie" or "kind sir". |

Gig in Soul Nomad & the World Eaters loves to stress that he and the main character Revya are "soulmates". This is to remind Revya that if they accept Gig's power at any time, Gig can take full control of their body and go on a worldwide murderous rampage and there isn't anything they can do to stop it. However, as the bond between the two develops, "soulmate" becomes an actual term of endearment that Gig uses when he's being especially nice to Revya. | |

Averted elsewhere. More sophisticated people, humans and nonhuman alike, have no trouble when the four use those terms or “love.� |

In Code:Realize, in Victor's route, in the Japanese dialogue, Queen Victoria calls him "Professor Stein". This doesn't apply to the English localization since it simply becomes "Dr. Frankenstein". Queen Victoria also refers to Cardia as "little doll". | |

In Max Payne: Vladimir Lem addresses some characters namely, those he plans on betraying or has betrayed, including the eponymous character, as "dearest of all my friends." Also the woman he's sleeping with and will betray. He does a lot of betraying. And on the in-game commercial for his nightclub, he refers to the listener — i.e., every single person in the city — as "dearest of all my friends" as well. We don't even need these spoiler tags. A guy who refers to a (John Woo violent) city as "dearest of all my friends" is either the final boss or an elderly shopkeeper with Mystic Secrets. |

In Aquarion Evol, Kagura won't ever stop yammering about his "smelly wench"note "kuso onna" in original Japanese; a more culturally accurate translation would be something along the line of "my bitch" Mikono. This is due to reincarnation and Kagura's past life as a magical flying dog. Which simply adds to the creepiness. | |

It refers to the Operator as "Kiddo," the nickname the Operator's father referred to them by. Likewise, when it appeared before Albrecht Entrati, it called him by his childhood nickname "Little Bengel". He states this name had been unspoken for centuries. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Azula calls her brother "Zu-Zu". While using an Embarrassing Nickname for a brother might seem fairly normal, Azula has spent her whole life either callously manipulating or outright trying to kill him. Ty Lee once called Sokka "cutie" and was occasionally shown to have a Villainous Crush on him. However, even though Ty Lee is technically a villainess (until her Heel–Face Turn), she's a genuinely friendly Genki Girl, so this instance does not have the same level of menace that Azula has with "Zu-Zu". |

Ferid also calls Yuu and Mika "lovely" or "dear" in chapter 43 (depending on the translation) and sometimes refers to Yuu as "cute". There's also times he refers to Yuu as the "beloved Yuu-chan", "precious angel", or "precious princess" that Mika wants to rescue. Ferid also calls Guren "my lion" while beating him up in battle. Crowley, Yuu's enemy, calls him "my cute little livestock". |

Batman: The Joker's many nicknames for Batman. To name a few there is "Batsy", "honey pie", "my detective", "bats", "my dear Batman", "darling", "honeycakes", and "my dear Dark Knight". It usually depends on the author whether this is an expression of twisted affection, if the Joker is just using it to irritate Batman, or if this is another example of just how obsessed he is with the Bat. Lady Shiva has made it clear she intends to kill Tim Drake in a martial arts duel. She also seems fond of him as a clever former student and warmly refers to him as "little bird". She's even willing to work alongside him to an extent if he can talk his way out of her killing him in an entertaining enough fashion. During Batman: No Man's Land, in the story where Clayface captured Poison Ivy, he uses such terms — and it's implied rape was one of the things he did to her. |

Lezard in the Valkyrie Profile series invokes this trope often. Calling Lenneth "my Lady Love" or "my beloved" in the first meeting and admitting to being a stalker, then later using similar terms when she comes to kill him for screwing over not one but two timelines trying to seduce her is probably not a healthy crush. | |

From Outlast: Mood-Swinger Serial Killer Eddie Gluskin does this to every man he captures and attempts to mutilate into looking like a woman in order to make them a perfect bride, and once he sets his sights on Waylon, he swings between pet names and violent, misogynistic insults. Base game had Dr. Trager, who referred to Miles as "buddy" while mutilating his hands and later chasing him down to finish the job with the rest of his body. |

Super Mario Bros.: Bowser does this an awful lot in regards to Mario, with about 20 different nicknames given to him in the cartoons and another 4 or so in the games. Super Coward Bros, Pesky Plumber, Faucet Face, and Two Bit Tortinelli Taster are just a few of who knows how many names Bowser calls him… Kamek plays it a bit more straight across multiple games, calling Yoshi names such as "cutie", "Yoshi-baby", and "Yoshikins", just before siccing giant monsters on him. |

1989: "Blank Space" addresses the romantic subject as "darling" as it takes a turn for the darker: "'Cause, darling, I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream." In the music video, the line is delivered by Taylor's character as she grabs her boyfriend's face threateningly. | |

Teen Titans (2003): Slade likes to refer to Robin as "my boy" and Terra as "my dear apprentice". In the episode "Birthmark", Slade kept mockingly referring to Raven as "birthday girl". Blackfire seems to like calling Starfire "sister dear". When Beast Boy turns into a big cat, fails, and retreats, Jinx takes a Menacing Stroll after while calling him "kitty". In the episode "Spellbound" Raven fell in love with Malchior who lived in a book. However, he turned out to be a Sealed Evil in a Can, who was really just tricking her into releasing him from the book. He kept referring to her as "my sweet Raven". Kitten keeps calling Robin "Robbie-poo" even after she gives up on making him her boyfriend and just wants him dead. |

In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Willy Wonka tends to address the Golden Ticket tour group members as "my dear [blank]". Mr. Wonka is not a villain, but he is a Trickster, and as the book progresses he uses such sweet talk to "politely" discourage others from questioning him, defuse the parents' anger at him when their bratty children are horrifically imperiled, etc. This tends to be dropped in adaptations, perhaps because it sounds so creepy in practice. | |

The generally malevolent Sue Sylvester does this with several people in Glee, most memorably calling Kurt "Porcelain". This is actually a subversion since she seems to have a soft spot for Kurt and he himself picked out "Porcelain" as her personal nickname for him after he told her he was offended by her having called him "Lady" until then and actually was the only teacher who actually did something proactive about his bullying problem. | |

Superman: In The Death of Clark Kent, Conduit calls Superman "Clarkie" many times while harassing him and calls Jimmy Olsen (who he twice kidnaps and nearly murders in an attempt to get to Clark) "Red". As seen in Who Took the Super out of Superman? and other Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths stories, Steve Lombard also delights in calling Clark Kent "Clarkie" while bullying him. In Who is Superwoman?, Reactron calls Supergirl "Sweetcheeks" while attempting to murder her. For extra creepy points, he's a lecherous middle-aged man and she's a teenager. The Phantom Zone: Supergirl mockingly calls Faora Hu-Ul "Sweetcheeks" before punching her out. |

The Immortal Game: Nihilus repeatedly refers to Twilight Sparkle as "kiddo". Twilight gets her back with it a few times. During her imprisonment, Terra continually calls Celestia "Sunshine". Celestia gets her back by calling her "mom" — Terra is her mother, but she hates being called something so informal. |

In The Screwtape Letters, Screwtape usually begins his letters with 'My dear Wormwood', Wormwood being his nephew and the recipient of said letters. When he uses extra endearment in the opening to the final letter, it's because Wormwood messed up big time, allowed the guy he was tempting to go to heaven, and Screwtape intends to cannibalize him for this mistake. | |

Variation in Young Justice (2010), where Sportsmaster addresses Cheshire and Artemis as "little girl" and "baby girl," respectively. Variation because a) Cheshire is just as much of a villain as he is, though will not compromise the people she loves, and b) because Sportsmaster is her and Artemis's father, and according to Word of God, these have always been his pet names for them. He's still perfectly capable of putting all kinds of vicious wrongness into it, particularly in one scene where he's trying to convince Artemis to betray her team. | |

In Body of Lies. Despite his casual use of torture, one of the scariest things Hani Pasha does is repeatedly addressing his ally Ferris as "my dear".

In Vlad's debut episode, before Danny knows he's evil, he refers to Danny as "son," with Danny politely commenting that he doesn't like anyone but his dad to do that. This perfectly ties into Vlad's desire to get rid of Jack and marry Maddie, which would make Danny and Jazz his adopted children. | |

The way the Soldier in Team Fortress 2 addresses allied Medics as "sweetheart", "cupcake", etc. isn't exactly threatening, but it certainly sounds rather discourteous. He also sometimes calls the Medic "Sally", which has some interesting implications considering the fact that the Soldier (at least the BLU one) is named Jane. Soldier will also growl "come'ere, cupcake", right before he uses his Taking You with Me taunt kill. | |

Doctor Who: The Master has a habit, especially in the Classic Series, of referring to the Doctor as "My dear Doctor". This isn't limited to just the Doctor either. In the webcast Scream of the Shalka the Master tells the Doctor's latest companion that he is by no means fond of her. Justified by the fact that the Doctor and the Master were good friends as children and in a certain twisted way, especially in the Doctor's 3rd and 10th incarnations, still are friends. Also a good bit of Foe Romance Subtext in there too. Shalka has a further justification in that it takes place in an Alternate Continuity where the Master has undergone a Heel–Face Turn. |

In the Monty Python episode "Whither Canada?", a talk show host asks his guest, Sir Edward Ross, if he may call him Edward. This is fine with Ross, as is the subsequent request for permission to call him Ted. The host then crosses the line by calling him, in rapid succession, "Eddie baby," "sweetie," "sugar plum," "pussy cat," "angel drawers," "Frank" (after prominent Real Life political commentator Robin Day's hedgehog), and "Frannie Knickers," at which point the increasingly irritated Ross gets up to leave. | |

Codename: Kids Next Door has the Delightful Children frequently refer to operatives of the Kids Next Door by their first names instead of by their Code Names (most frequent is calling Numbuh One "Nigel"). When operatives do this to each other it's usually as a sign of them being close, but the Delightful Children do it as a pretense of politeness and to belittle the organization as a whole, like a parent who insists on using their child's Embarrassing First Name. Sometimes they also call Numbuh 1 "Nigie" (Lizzie's Affectionate Nickname for him) to mock him. | |

In Guardians of Ga'Hoole, "Auntie", who is put in charge of caring for children in a villainous owl orphanage, comes across as very creepy because of her inappropriate terms of endearment (and insistence on them using the same for her). It turns out that she eats eggs. Nyra has a tendency to call her enemies "darling." |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Spike calls people "love" even when killing them. In British English, however, it's pretty common to informally refer to just about any female as "love," similar to the usage of "dude" in American English. Though the Foe Romance Subtext aspects are lampshaded when he's fighting Buffy or Nikki Wood. Angelus calls Buffy "lover" and "Buff" numerous times, just to remind her exactly how he turned evil. |

In the point-and-click adventure game Myst, the no-good brother duo of Sirrus and Achenar are each trying to convince the Stranger (otherwise known as the player) that they should be let out of their respective prisons, and they accomplish this by backstabbing each other. Sirrus in particular shows his disdain for his sibling by referring to Achenar as his "dear brother". Constantly. Oh, and both brothers use "my friend" in a similar Terms Of Endangerment context, particularly when you choose a bad ending, and the brother you've just freed uses the same term to highlight your fate — now you're stuck in his prison for all eternity. | |

In Looking for Group, Tavor addresses Cale as "brother". Then again, when he was first introduced, he really was a nice guy, and it seems to be implied that all elven knights address one another as "brother". Later in the story, though, this trope is played straight when he (or rather his ghost) is driven insane by the death of his King and Princess (implied to be his family) and destruction of the kingdom, and tries to kill Cale and the Archmage. | |

Ursula from The Little Mermaid. She calls Ariel things like "my child", "angelfish", "my dear sweet child", "sweet cakes", "poor little princess", and "my sweet". | |

Emperor Jagang in The Sword of Truth books calls female characters he usually intends to rape, torture, and/or kill (which is to say, all of them) "darlin'". | |

The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie Boogie refers to Sally as "rag-doll", though this is a weird version, as she is a rag-doll. He also refers to Santa once as "Sand Man", and Jack (though Oogie makes sure that there's plenty of whirling blades between him and Jack) as "Bone Man". | |

The Djinn in Wishmaster constantly uses terrifyingly inappropriate terms of endearment towards Alex while murdering everyone around her, such as "Spare me, child!", and "If it's any consolation sweet Alex, that hurt like hell!". | |

Full Metal Panic!: Gauron calls Sousuke "honey". It's very, very wrong. The weirdest part is that it's hard to tell if he sincerely means it, or just doing it to annoy Sousuke. Or both. He's also partial to "my precious boy", "darling", and "Kashim". It's HEAVILY implied that Gauron genuinely loves Sousuke in some twisted way. In the novels he also calls Kaname "Kana-chan". Something only her best friend Kyoko calls her. |

Gravity Falls: Gideon Gleeful is the type of guy who will call you "friend" before trying to cut out your tongue with a pair of lamb shears. Bill Cipher is the type of demon who will call you by a personalized nickname while trying to persuade you to fuck yourself over with a combination of Deal with the Devil and Jackass Genie. In "The Last Mabelcorn," Dipper Pines, whom Bill nicknamed "Pine Tree," is shown to be so afraid of Bill that he freaks out when he thinks that Stanford, who he believes may have been possessed by Bill was about to call him by that nickname. |

After just meeting Light, Misa starts calling him cutesy nicknames like "light-darling" or "Raito-Naito", in a Stalker with a Crush manner. (Creepy though it may be, she actually wouldn't let any harm come to him and makes it clear that he's free to rebuff her.) | |

Vetinari addresses Vimes as "my dear Vimes" on a couple occasions. It's only vaguely menacing, though; mainly he's just being condescending about Vimes' cynicism being slightly less absolute than his own. He also addresses Moist von Lipwig as "my dear Mister Lipwig" once, while implying he might throw him in the dungeon, and occasionally calls other people "my dear ____" as well. It goes with the rest of his send-up of a certain stock villain type thing. | |

In Star Trek: The Next Generation, Q frequently addresses Captain Picard as "mon capitan," which is how a junior officer would address his captain in French, even when Q is using his powers to torment Picard and the rest of the crew. However, Q does seem to like Picard in the way that a child would like a pet that he's prone to teasing. | |
