I love how she uses "little bird" as example for how great her nicknames are

I call my wife that occasionally, but only when I ask what the word is ("what's the word, little bird?")

Does she respond "how now brown cow?"

That was the nickname they used for Tevye’s daughter Chavala in Fiddler on the Roof.

Tony Pizza? I haven't watched that movie in a while, but I feel like I'd remember Tony Pizza being serenaded by the tailor to "Wonder of Wonders."

Also I just realized Cersei calls Sansa "little bird."

Omg thank you! I couldn't think of where I'd heard that used as a nickname before.

If I ever refer to anyone as little bird it'll include miniguns.

It's likely the whole reason she gets called stupid petnames is to prove that you alone can't be the judge of it.
