Cutesy term of affection

Ross

I believe the answer is:

buttercup

(Other definitions for buttercup that I've seen before include "Meadow flower poisonous to cattle" , "growth in the field" , "Weed with rich yellow flowers" , "weedy type" , "Rich yellow wild flower" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
