Well, I see "Bangel" used all the time, but just in casual conversation. It sounds too silly for people to use "officially" for their ship, I think, or to label their fics with it.
I like "Ruffy" - good one. But I don't know what Buffy/Riley shippers would use.
Baith/Fuffy I see interchangeably. But people also use those terms to refer to the characters when Faith was in Buffy's body and vice versa. Don't ask me which term used for which character, because there are no rules. o.O
The thing is, "Sp" just works so well in front of just about anything. It's just a coincidence really. I doubt the name-smooshing thing is very popular among other fandoms or 'ships.
Heh heh heh ... Spike/Fred, that was Spred. It did give some folks pause. Spillyria has much more dignity, I'm sure you agree. ;)
