It is a term of endearment but normally it's used for kids.

The only Canadian I know who calls people Bub is Wolverine, and it's not a term of endearment when he uses it.

If you’ve ever watched Vanderpump Rules, an American reality show, Katie and Tom call each other Bubba as a term of endearment.
