What's the meaning of Dustin nickname in season 3? - Aerial Photography of Snow Covered Trees

At the end of Stranger Things' season 3, we saw that Dustin has a new nickname: Dusty-bun. Also, we saw that

he calls his girlfriend as Suzie-poo

As I'm not a native English speaker, I can't understand those nicknames as a fluffy thing. For me, "bun" means a part of the human body that produces "poo", where both things are related with the toilet.

As the nicknames are meant to be cute, what are the other possible translations for this context that are not given by Google Translator?



Best Answer

According to Wiktionary, "poo" is:

Added to nouns, especially personal names, ending in -y or -ie to form affectionate, playful diminutives.


"Bun" is not a "dirty word", and possibly refers to:

a small, sometimes sweet, bread-based item.

Answer 2

Suzie Q is a very well known rock song, and Suzie Poo is likely a play on that - additionally, poo is not an unknown "pet name" addition as @BCdotWEB has pointed out.

Dusty Bin was a 1980s gameshow icon, but as "he" was only famous in the UK, I'm guessing this is too obscure an 80s reference for the Stranger Things writers. The name is a play on "dustbin" (the UK equivalent of trashcan).
