After decades of co-hosting alongside Pat Sajak on Wheel of Fortune, it’s a big change to see Vanna White working with someone else. Luckily, Sajak’s replacement is the ever-charming Ryan Seacrest, and he and White seem to hit it off pretty well. The pair are always joking around and smiling with one another, whether it be in promos or during the actual tapings. So it should come as no surprise that they also have some totally adorable nicknames for one another. The nickname topic came up during a May episode of the game show, and Seacrest was quick to share his nickname for White. While his nickname for White was cute, it was White’s nicknames for him that really stole the show.

Saying goodbye to Sajak as the host of Wheel of Fortune was a difficult adjustment. After all, he’d been at the gig for decades, with White as his stylish co-host for nearly as long. But the show producers struck gold when it came time to find a replacement, because Seacrest is just as skilled on the hosting front. He may not have as many years under his belt, but he sure doesn’t lack experience. Plus, he’s also incredibly charming, and it seems just about impossible not to get along with White, so it was actually a relatively smooth adjustment period, all things considered.

Now, Seacrest and White have found their hosting stride on a Sajak-less Wheel of Fortune and have amped up the fun and humor to new levels, with skits and jokes aplenty. A recent episode promo brought up the topic of nicknames, where Seacrest revealed that he calls White “V Dubs”.

“Earlier during the break, I called Vanna her nickname, ‘V-Dubs’. I said, ‘Come on, V Dubs. We gotta go!’ And that’s not the first time, right?”

Though she was quick to point out the nickname wasn’t all that creative since her longtime partner, John Donaldson, also refers to her as “V Dubs”. She then asked Seacrest what is his nickname, to which he said that he doesn’t have any in particular, but if anyone wants to choose one, then go for it. So, naturally, White decided to get creative, and the resulting nicknames were quite funny.

Can somebody check on Seacrest before he hurts himself?

After Seacrest admitted he doesn’t have any particular nickname, White began trying out a few in a funny little montage of pre-show moments. These nicknames include “R-Sea”, “Ry-Guy”, and “Ryan-Stone Cowboy”, which White looked especially proud of. Ultimately, she decided that she liked the name Ryan the best, to which Seacrest agreed, saying it has to come naturally.
