Sweetie-Fluff.

What's your best "wrong name" story?

Maybe totally outing but DB "spoon waters" for oars of a boat.

My dd used to call chocolate bars "moo bars"

We still call hair ties "pingers" witha hard G because we used to ping the little soft ones.

Awww

I once had a French housemate who couldn’t remember the word for ‘tap’ and told me the ‘sink waterfall’ was stuck.

My DD used to call a bat a 'ball hammer' she also called custard 'yellow soup'

Meat worms.

It's mince, apparently. DD had me stumped for a while in Tesco!!

Ha. Just reminded me of DD and her pink chicken ... ham

@hopeful31yrs lol that just reminded me that my boyfriend has called sliced chicken 'white ham' since he was little!

DS used to call the washing machine the 'round'n'round', upstairs was 'up bears' and the microwave was the 'beep'

'Meat worms' has just reminded me of 'wee beefies' for mince in one of Lilian Beckwith's books!

Dd calls the radio in the car the radiator. Always makes me smile

DDs totally confused my friend by asking for lettuce sauce on their lunch - salad cream.

I was confused by 'purple orange'. He meant blackcurrant juice.

My youngest stepson used to call Ribena "oily orange juice" when he was little. He's 19 now and we've still never been able to work out the logic of it.

My DD says boobie laces for bra. Has done since she was about 3, she's 8 now 😂 I laugh every time.

Boobie laces!

My DD cried once that she had hurt her 'leg wrist'

My ds whonis now adult used to call windscreen wipers swish swaffers.
I much prefer it to windscreen wipers!

My eldest asked one night "Mummy is the hotter on?" - the radiator. My eldest also announced one night he didn't like black raspberries. He meant blackberries.

Fluffy cup .... bubbles in the bath.

Aren't these called egg-corns? A word that is wrong but still makes sense!

I like 'from the gecko' instead of get go.

Cow drain - cattle grid

"Eyes up down" for "upside down."

"Mummy I want to sit on your knee-chair!"

Just this evening, DD, wearing some fluffy earmuffs - "I can't hear you because I'm wearing my earpuffs"

DD is three and calls cereal bars "chocolate baths"

Ds, aged 3ish, had a fight with his little sister

‘Muuuuuuum, sister chucked her foot at meeee’

We don’t kick anything in this house anymore.

My nephew calls greens (served up on his dinner) 'camouflage'. When we asked why he said well duh camouflage is green...... fair point
