To not want dd to call her baby Dave?

[ViolentDelights]

I'm quite happy for it to stay simply as "baby" but her brother keeps telling her to call it Dave. Or Farty-pants. But Dave seems to be sticking. It doesn't even look like a Dave. I spent ages online picking one that wasn't terrible looking and now it's going to be known as Dave!

DD2 called her dolls "Ugly baby" and "Horrible baby". Probably good that she has no desire to have any children...

Farty McFartface

someone had to lol

I called mine Classical, Bunty and Diana (child of the late 70s/early 80s). My teddy was Ethel.

When my DD was 2 she had a doll called Armchair. . We kept asking her to repeat it as we thought she was mispronouncing it. But Armchair it stayed.

Hahaha!! I had a cat named Dave!! I love it!!!

When I was a kid I called all my dolls Baby Jesus!
I think Dave would have been a better choice.

at a doll called Mrs Thatcher!

Our cat is called Big Dave . He's class.

Doesn't seem so bad to me but then my real life baby no3 was called pickle head for the first few weeks of his life!

Everything in our house is called bob. My friends have a house full of things called Jeff.
It's pretty standard OP.

Dis had two small teddies called Kicker and Fighter. DB had a teddy called Fishy Rod. I think you've got away lightly.

Our neighbours had a ferret called Dave.

How about Pob?

Mine were Star and Moon

DD has twin baby dolls called stripper names Ginger & Crystal

Everything DS1 owns is called Gino - Gino1, GinoTheSecond, Gino3, Gino4, GinoTheFifth ....

My uncle called my teddy Deathwarmedup, and it stuck. I was about 23 before I realised what it meant.

My sister had a baby doll called Geoffrey.

DD has a toy monkey called Boris.

I took DD's discarded baby to school (secondary) to use as a prop 5 years ago. The "big children" christened her Shaniqua. The name stuck.

My DD's dolls were Goldilocks and Blackie.

Mine were Lea, Anna, Virginia, Leo and Teddy... (

My little sister (who didn't really like many dolls) had one called Fiona.

I think the fact you refer to your child's doll as her baby is much more concerning than the fact she calls it Dave,,,

DD wants to call our puppy Pink Car. The babies are all called baby though.

Bluntness round here, dolls are always referred to as babies. Dolly is never used. It took me a while to get used to it...

Mine was called Kaia after Willow's wife. Dds have dolls called Six and Mucky Susan.

Is this a peetake of another thread running at the moment?
