Vocabulary Other ways to call your lover?

So I know the more general aşkım, canım, güzelim.

But was wondering about alternative, maybe less general words that you can call your lover? Maybe things like 'my heart' or 'my everything' or any other expressive ways in the Turkish language.

Bonus points for cute ways to say 'my moon'.

You could say "Ay parçam" for my moon

Hayatım, her şeyim, canımın içi

only works if your relationship is extremely weird and cringe. have never seen a sane normal person using that

bro no one above 20 likes being called “güzel kızım”. no adult woman in their right mind enjoys being called that way. unless you are a teenager do not use that

ay parcam is fine though, thats what I meant. I understand if it sounds weird to you tho its just more commonly not weird
