Spanish speaking people, what does chepillon mean? I dont think I am spelling it correctly.?
I’ve often heard people say a word that sounds like "chepillon" or "chipillon" when speaking Spanish, though I’m not sure if I’m spelling it correctly. They seem to use it in the context of "bay" or something similar. Can anyone clarify what this word means and how it’s properly spelled?

Chípil is a nahuatl word, meaning an unweaned child who is jealous of a new baby that will replace him in beingʙʀᴇᴀsтfed. And so chípil or chipilón/a also refers to any person who demands attention or affection.
In Mexico and Cuba "chiqueón", sometimes spelled as "chiquión" or "chipilón", means 'pampered', 'spoiled', from the verb "chiquear" meaning 'to pamper', 'to spoil'.
"Chipilon" "Consentido"
Is like saying spoiled, pampered.
To be honest is the first time i have heard of this word so i just asked at home.
"Chillon" "llorón"
Is crying / winning. I thought you meant either one of those but i learnt something new. Thx for sharing.
