What does “choumoumou” means in creole? Does it mean soft or softly?

No. Where I come from it means very short or tiny person.
In what context was the choumounou used?

    Ah I see...

    I haven't heard the term used like that. I mostly hear it in the context of .... yon ti choumoumou.

    Let me rectify these two words so that we are talking about the same words:
    chou-mou-nou - which means short person
    chou-mou-mou - which, based on your context might mean soft or weak.
