What does Papi mean?
2 syllables

Papi is Spanish for "daddy" or "dad," an affectionate diminutive of padre used widely across Latin America and Spain, and increasingly borrowed into English as a term of endearment.

Papi is warm and a little cheeky - a name for a companion who's become the undisputed center of the household, doted on and utterly in charge.
