The suffix is normally "-ciğim". and it can be used for everyone, like you asked: Mehmetciğim
By the way, it depends on the last vowel and consonant, as almost all suffixes in Turkish...
Burcucuğum
Ahmetçiğim
Uğurcuğum
Yasinciğim
Özgürcüğüm
While you are talking, it comes fast, so you hear just "cım,cim,cum,cüm", but don't use them while you are writing:
Burcucum
Ahmetcim << i am not sure maybe also -çim "Ahmetçiğim" << "Ahmetçim"
Uğurcum
Yasincim
Özgürcüm
All are for close friends or relatives that you call their names.
Or if you want to call for mom and the other relatives that you dont call their names:
anneciğim
babacığım
abiciğim
ablacığım
dedeciğim
amcacığım
teyzeciğim
halacığım
dayıcığım
yengeciğim...

Rica ederim but you should write:
memnun oldum
and you dont need to emphasize "ben"
Kolay gelsin

Just came over this topic.
As far as my grammatical knowledge is concerned, the suffix at stake here is '-cek' + the 1st pers suffix -im suffix. Hereby the 'k' changes into the 'yumusak ge', forming the '-cegim'.
The suffic -cek is normally used to address things or persons informally as for example:
bebe = baby
bebecek = cute/beloved baby
begecegim = my beloved/ baby of mine

Quoting CANLI: is '-cek' suffix to address people ? |
yes, you could say "anneciğim" to your mum for example, it's a diminutive and has a sweeter sound.
