Do you have a name for your viewers?

I've seen a lot of channels call their viewers something other than "viewers" or "fans." It's usually a name related to the YouTuber's channel theme or some quirk. They'll call their viewers something like "babies" or "minions." Even smaller YouTubers with little-to-no following often do this.

What are your thoughts on this practice? Do you have a pet name for your viewers? Do you think it adds an extra level of attachment to your channel. As a viewer, do you like being called one of these names? And if so, why?

I'm personally not a fan of the idea. It really just ends up turning me off of that person and their content.
 
I don't mind it. I think it can make people feel special. Danny from TheGradualReport calls his subs his 'little lemon drops'.......sounds silly, but when he says it, I think it's neat. If it's something unique and it means something...I think it's cool to do :)

Very good, very good. I'm interested in replies like this because I need to be brought back down to earth and not stuck in my own ego-drenched mind.

Lol.....but it has to come from the heart :P and has to be clever hehe.
You could get away with it...go ahead..give us a name!!
*is scared to death*
 
I have a hard time thinking of names for my fans, like Jezzanites or Jezzuits but I can't use those for certain reasons. But recently I've been throwing around the idea of calling them Zeds because of the two "Z's" in my name.
