Ask him if it is ok.

When you two are talking just, casually, let the word "dad" slip out as if you didn't mean to say it out loud. Then maybe that will break the ice. But make sure you do it where he hears you calling him "dad" by "mistake";). Then, if he says something about what you just called him, ask him if he minds you calling him that. That you think of him as your dad now. He will, most likely, be very happy to hear you call him that. I know I would if I were married and had a step-kid. I'd love for them to, eventually, call me "dad". But only when they are ready. Chances are, it has already crossed his mind. He may have just been waiting all this time until you were ready to do so. I'm sure he already loves you, very much, like you were his own kid.

I would just say, Hey, I am gong to call you dad, okay? That was there doesn't have to be a huge talk, but you don't have to worry that he isn't okay with it. I'm sure he will be thrilled!!

Just ask him how he feels about you calling him dad. I am sure it will make him very proud.
