Is it permissible for the wife to call her husband “Lai” (meaning big brother)?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
MY YOUNGER FAMILY MEMBERS AND RELATIVES CALL ME BY THE NAME OF “LAI” MEANING – BIG BROTHER. MY WIFE ALSO CALLS ME BY THAT NAME TOO. SO IT IS PERMISSIBLE FOR HER TO DO SO??

Answer

(Fatwa: 99/99=M/1429)

The wife should avoid it in future; she should not call you with Lai.
