If I were to call a person "my little onion", I would be saying the person is complex, with many "layers" to his/her personality. It would definitely NOT be an insult. 

Onions DO make many people's eyes weep; also, onions tend to have a strong odor. (just a couple other possible meanings)

My little brother (50 yrs old) used to say something was "really onion" when he thought it was really "cool"....

They're making beef stew?

You stink.

It means they think you have a slim body and a fat bottom, like an onion.

Ducky

Isn't that "my little pear"?

Hmmm..... I have no clue.

Never heard it before. Maybe someone is talking to "Allicin".

From the Urban Dictionary

Onion People

 
A mischievous group of aliens that live n another planet.

The do not resemble onions, oh no. Their planet has many layers, like an onion.
They consider themselves superior and want to study the human race. They’re generally humanoid, as I understand it but they are not humans, not at all.

We do see them in our lives, but they erase our memories. You almost never know when you’ve been a victim of the Onion People, as they send you back to the exact second they took you so you never know.

No one knows how they came to be, or what they feed on. (Though it is believed that their obsession with onions is obvious in their everyday diets)
There powers have made them all but impossible to study.
We do know, however, if you dont escape they keep you forever.
Only a select few know of there existence through keen observarion. When you lose you’re train of thought, you'r eyes get all wattery for no reason, or something magically disappears, that is the work of the Onion People.

You have been warned.

Person 1: Yeah, man it was....wait.....what was i saying?
Person 2: I don't know...what where we even talking about?
Person 1: Do you think the Onion People got us?
Person 2: Yeah man, they must have. Are my eyes are a little watery? Yours are.
Person 1: Yeah man, shoot. Well at least we escaped.
