Yep, it could be an affectionate nickname. My son calls his father ‘old bean’ literally translated father…
Some of us chinese are still particular about family hierarchy. Eg my son addressed father’s elder sister as Ku ma. As we fret that son cannot remember the ‘status’ we tend to call his Ku Ma as Ku Ma in too in family gathering. So at times it became a habit. Jokers right? and strangers can address as AhJie/Mei as a matter of courtesy. In Ipoh Malaysia, strangers can address me as LengLui… meaning pretty girl.. tho i am not at all🤣🤣🤣

Haha sorry I should not said moonshine! Should b moon rays. ‘Moonshine ( Toddy in Malaysia) mostly refers to strong and illegally-made alcoholic spirits. 😜. Me bad.
