The trailer for American Sniper was grating, with all the Baby Baby Baby hypocorisms. If I didn’t know the story, I wouldn’t want to go see it based on that.

‘Hypo’, a prefix that in Greek means ‘under’, would mean that hypocorism, used by a public speaker presumably, indicates hypocharisma in the speaker, right?

The hypocoristic Choommmobile was a sign
Of a president who would cross the line
Whether with Reggie in tow
Or with our country’s foe
Hope and change was a warning he did opine.

Hypercorism must then be when your full, formal names are used (such as when you were scolded by your parents – including the middle name ;-)
