Spoon Backpack

When being spooned so tightly it's almost like a backpack.

He let me spoon backpack him all night.

Backpack Spoon

An alternative terminology to the traditional "big spoon" and "little spoon." Couples who argue over spooning positions may use this without disregarding convention if the smaller partner feels more comfortable cuddling from behind, with "backpack" implying that someone smaller would be strapped around the bigger partner as if they were a normal sized backpack, which is typically smaller than the individual.

Partner 1: Can I be the small spoon tonight? You always make me the big spoon and it feels wrong, ok?
Partner 2: No honey it's ok. You're the backpack spoon.
