Sipophilia

A form of paraphilia characterized by sexual or sensual arousal from the act of drinking fluids or observing others drink. This may include attraction to the physical motions involved—such as swallowing, throat movement, or lip contact with a cup or bottle—as well as the intimate, rhythmic, or nurturing qualities of the action itself.

“John realized he had Sipophilia when he noticed how aroused he got watching people drink water.”

Sipophilia is the fetish for drinking any fluid, the excitement can come from the type of cup being used, straws, throat movement, gulping sounds and even an 'Ah' after a cool sip of water.

Somnophiletos

A coined term meaning “one who is loved in sleep.” Derived from somno- (Latin somnus, “sleep”) and -philetos (Greek philetos, “beloved”). It serves as the passive counterpart to somnophile—the person who loves or is attracted to someone sleeping.

In that dynamic, the somnophiliac is the actor; the somnophiletos is the sleeper.
