We're sticking to what we know in the Midwest for Valentine's Day.

TODAY just came out with a list of 80 cutesy names for your boyfriend this Valentine's Day. They include some golden nuggets like:

  • Paramour
  • Pop Tart
  • Sweets McGee
  • Fluffy pie
  • The wooer

Those could definitely get your man hot and bothered. And while most of the nicknames are pretty generic, if you're dating a Midwesterner, you can get much more specific and "endearing".

So here are a few pet names for the Midwestern love in your life.

Especially if you're in the QCA. 'Dear' is outdated. 'Deere' passes the vibe check.

For the record, in legit partner pet names, the Midwest is split. Iowa and Illinois prefer "babe", while Wisconsin and other states prefer "honey".

You Could Own The Greatest House In The State Of Wisconsin

There's a home in Wisconsin that everyone in the state would call the best house on the market. The house is reasonably priced for the amount of money you could get out of it. Why does this house sound like a gold mine? Because it sits and looks directly at the heart of Title Town U.S.A., the legendary Lambeau Field, the home of the Green Bay Packers.
