The Little Corporal: this was at the beginning of his career, as a recognition from his own soldiers (which he would himself refer to as his "children" later on in life), affectionate term, as Bonaparte was a man who was not afraid to mix with his own men and involve himself more than 200%.
He also inherited from such bad names as "the ogre" (specially around the first half of 1810s when he was recruiting raw recruits in his ongoing effort of war.
The English called him Boney as well (surely more friendly), for example Betsy Balcombe (little girl) on St Helena
The Little Corporal.
Napoleon Bonaparte was also affectionately known to his troops as "le petit caporal" (the little corporal)
Napoleon's name was "the little emperor".
He only had one in Britain: "the little corporal". That was mainly because British caricaturists depicted him as a sort of dwarf. In reality, Napoleon at about 1.70 m was of even slightly above-average height for men of his era. He would certainly have dwarfed most Britains, who at the time were on average 5 to 10 cm shorter than Napoleon.
He was called "The Eaglet." His reign as emperor lasted only16 days and took place when he was just four years of age.
