From the Ozarks I always heard the older women in my life calling the young bucks and belles, sugar, honey, darling, and mon cheri.

Also from the Ozarks and can confirm. It’s a weird area in the US that has similarities to classic Midwestern, Appalachian, and Southern American cultures. But still distinct in being Ozarkian.
Another fun note: The Ozark ‘mountains’ are only the rolling root hills you see today because they’re about a billion years older than the Appalachian or Scottish Highland Mountains. So, when you hear someone say “The Smokies are older than bones”, (because they were formed long before vertebrates walked the earth) just remember the Ozarks are about a billion years older.
