We still call breakfast 'brescut' in our house as that is what ds used to say when he was little (he's now 5 and corrects us!).

He also used to call Father Christmas 'Farmer Christmas' which since we used to live on a farm made sense to him!!

My eldest child's name is Jonathan. Ds2 calls him Wonnan, although he is 3.5and can say 'Jonathan'.

They were playing with pens and paper earlier, and ds1was sounding words out to spell them. So ds2 put pen to paper, and carefully sounded out "Woh - Nan!" whilst scrawling '0o0xx011ox0ox0' across the paper....

DD2 is Alexandra, but we call her Allie. When we started to explain longer names to DD1 (4) she called DD2 Allie-andra. Sadly she can say Alexandra properly now.

My DB couldn't say 'vanilla' when he was little. He'd say 'um, navilla, lavinna, um, valinna..... um, white one please!'

DH is 27 and still calls his dsis Flobble which is nowt like her real name. Only family members call her that since BIL mispronounced it as a toddler. The day she said 'call me Flobble' was a seminal moment in my acceptance into the family. I was less excited when BIL announced 'call me spam'.

DD is past mixing up words but we still have a washmeen (washing machine), a toy evverlunt (elephant) and many things in the colour leelow. The doctor also does a good line in medsuns.

DS (2.4) calls me Mummy Pig. I try to tell myself that it's becauae I'm such a lovely Mummy like Peppa Pig's (he adores that programme) but to be more realistic, it's bound to be down to my HUGE baby bump and ever expanding arse
