Book or House for a boy?

[MistyB]

What would your children like to have been called if they had the choice? These were the suggestion of my DS who is 4.

[MadBusLady]

at "Penguin Acrobat".

I get the impression that's quite common Slave. Remember my brother going through a dresses stage too. I think it's just trying out the other gender's behaviour. Probably girls do it too but we don't notice as much.

One of our son spent a summer insisting he was called Amy !!!! He also dressed in his sisters clothes , he's now in his 20s and show no tendencies to cross dress or have a sex change! It was an odd summer to say the least :)

[titchy]

Ds when he was 4 wanted to change his name to Simon

[happyhorse]

DS has given himself the middle names Penguin Acrobat.

DD1 wanted us to call DD2 "lovely"

[ProtegeMoi]

DS would like to be called box and when asked about a name for new baby sister he suggested either baby or sister.

Considering he has a hamster called hamster and a fish called fish I shouldn't have expected much else.

Ds wants us to call our soon to arrive dd parsnip!

[itsnothingoriginal]

DD (6) has stopped answering to her name and insists that she's called 'Rose'. Oh dear - I think we may have trouble in store with her

DS wants to be called Wolverine

[BeanoNoir]

Dd wants ds to be called 'park' when he arrives

[raisah]

My ds (4) has renamed my dd (2) fluffy carrot and she has renamed him quack quack.

[TheSlug]

my 4yo db wanted to call our baby brother uncle duck. (massively outing myself here) his friend of the same age suggested Jesus.

[CrowsLanding]

My db2 was infuriated when db3 was born and my dm would not call him George of the Jungle took him years to get over it

[hurricanewyn]

DD would like to be Janice, because it's so exotic

[GreenShadow]

I can top Book or House.

When I was expecting DS3, the older two boys came up with either 'Purple Jetski' or 'Armbandsie'.

[MrsBungle]

Toucan or palm tree were the two suggestions from my 3yo dd to name out baby ds!

[YoniOno]

Probably Banana, but he's only 18mo. Love Book!

[Britchic]

My then 5 year old announced that he wanted to change his name to... Taxi...!!
