favoritest
Beyond most beloved
Favoritest is a playful or childish superlative of favorite, used for emphasis or affection: You're my favoritest person in the whole world.
Since favorite already implies the top of a ranking, favoritest is redundant by strict logic—but that's part of its charm.
Adults use it ironically or to sound endearing.
