When checking on them I call the figs by their nicknames (acronyms) usually the first 3 or 4 characters of the cultivars name if name is short then use the full name.

I greet them,Hellooooo girls

I never thought of naming plants by using the shortened proper name. Cool.

What do I call my figs?

That depends on the time of day. Evening - snack. Morning - breakfast. And so on. :)

Teases until they put out.

They're all called my babies and I talk to each and every one of them!

My wife calls them my " other children",I don't try to correct her so it must be true.Me and my figs aren't currently on speaking terms,I have told them I am not speaking to them until they apologise for not producing figs by producing some damn figs

When I dropped one on my foot I called it FF.
All kidding aside I number all my figs for the purpose of record keeping and I use a spreadsheet. The name I am given from source of the plant is kept as part of record but not necessarily accepted as correct, I have many same fig different name . At the end of day what is important is how good they do for you

I call them my "Ladies". Good morning ladies. Good afternoon ladies. Good night ladies.  Mommy? Where do figs come from? "From ladies of course!"

Lol...no name yet but thinking about it now.
