When addressing someone with a term of endearment, should the gender of "my" match the word or the person? For example, when addressing a male as "my star", would you say Звездочка моя or Звездочка мой?

The gender of pronoun should match the gender of the endearment word.
Another example, there's a word of endearment зайчонок (bunny). When applied to a woman, as it often is, the combination looks like мой зайчонок where мой is a masculine form agreeing with masculine зайчонок.
