Oh why did I bother. So if anyone hears someone calling Tigger while out, please don't start a thread on here laughing at my terrible name choice, she does have a beautiful name really.

I quite like Tigger

IwishIwereonthebeach · 02/04/2009 11:01

whats her beautiful name?

PinkTulips · 02/04/2009 11:03

ds1 is frequently 'cat' or 'baby'

we're not allowed to use his name when he's in certain moods

My dd went through a phase of wanting to be called Dandelion.
Her brother wanted to be called Zoe.

Why do we bother??

I know a child whose actual name is Tigger

MuppetsMuggle · 02/04/2009 15:48

My DD name is lovely. I think as I've always called her bean, she never answers to her actual name, she says my name is Bean LOL.

Ds this morning said 'I am not [ds name], I am the new boy. My name is hopscotch.'

I quite like hopscotch too.

I expect your 'beautiful name' will stay with her longer than Tigger

sleepsforwimps · 02/04/2009 23:18

There's a real Tigger out there? She will be so jealous.

Hopscotch has a nice ring to it.

My dd is Satsuma or Dolly. I have no idea where she got them from.

My DD has stuck to her name - and names all her toys the same name too! God knows what happens if we have another girl.

My DS has chosen the name Giten from the binman in his favoutite book. If anyone asks him his name, he always replies 'Giten'. He is 2.

hehe! This reminds me that when I was at playgroup, so about 3, I insisted that everyone call me Christopher Robin, it had to be written on all my paintings etc etc.... Can see my DD going the same way tbh.

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 03/04/2009 12:40

DD2 insists on being called 'Moonbear' or 'Butterfly Princess'.

How fecking nauseating is that?
