00Is there a word called "callee"? 02br

0It may not be in the dictionary. It has likely been coined for the occasion (as has probably been done many times before), and this is permissable within limits of comprehensibility. The '-ee' suffix for recipient is one of those affixes that seem to work easily and understandably for temporary coinages in informal conversation.
