Should personalised Christmas stockings be M & D for mummy and daddy, or their actual initials?

I think M & D

DH thinks actual initials of our names.

Kids are aged 1 and 4!

First initial. Your names are not mummy and daddy. At 1 and 4 your children already know this.

although certainly get M and D if you’re also getting S and D for Son and Daughter.

Does a 1 year old know that?

Either way, I really don't think it matters.

Father Christmas doesn't buy for adults in our house.

Full names, including middle names, plus postcode and house number 👍

Personalised stockings for adults are cringey as fuck.

Initials. Mum is not my real name.

I think that names are better.
