In the movie "Amadeus," what were the nicknames of Mozart, his wife and his son?

I think Mozart's name was Wolfie,  and maybe hers was Stanzie but I can't figure out the son's.

    Mozart is called Wolfie, Canstanze is stanzi. I scanned throught the script and I think their son Karl was called "monkey."

    There weren't any nicknames, I believe. WOLFIE is just a shorter version of Mozart's first name, WOLFGANG. In the same way, STANZI is a reduction of his wife's first name, CONSTANZE. By the way, "Amadeus" is Mozart's middlename.
