my DD 2.4y says choook instead of thank you, hehe find quite amusing. she is now capable of saying thank you but is on the habit of saying choook now.

my DS used to call me bubby instead of mummy from a year old until he went to playschool. lol

We still call breakfast 'brescut' in our house as that is what ds used to say when he was little (he's now 5 and corrects us!).

He also used to call Father Christmas 'Farmer Christmas' which since we used to live on a farm made sense to him!!

Father Christmas is Kimiss
Bottom is Bopton

Washershime - washing machine
Breakfud - breakfast

My eldest child's name is Jonathan. Ds2 calls him Wonnan, although he is 3.5and can say 'Jonathan'.

They were playing with pens and paper earlier, and ds1was sounding words out to spell them. So ds2 put pen to paper, and carefully sounded out "Woh - Nan!" whilst scrawling '0o0xx011ox0ox0' across the paper....

Snuffs= nostrils

LovingtheSilverFox · 07/09/2009 23:20

We have (which have stuck):

Breakfast - breakquast
Gingerbread men - benjamins
Mama mia, here i go again, my, my I'm a little sister!
Weetabix - bixbix
Elizabeth - Bellybeth
Alexandra - Alex-and-nandra (or tubbytubby)
Grandpa - Bugger
Grandad - Dongle
Grandad Ron - Graddad WON! (Has to be shouted)

There were many more along the way, but those have stuck for all of us!

Ds1 likes to eat Bash Browns with his fried eggs.

fishie · 08/09/2009 12:31

kreecherlivesupstairs · 08/09/2009 12:33

Just remembered a couple more
Clopper for poo and
Badder for grandad

AnnieLobeseder · 08/09/2009 12:37

DD2 is Alexandra, but we call her Allie. When we started to explain longer names to DD1 (4) she called DD2 Allie-andra. Sadly she can say Alexandra properly now.

My DB couldn't say 'vanilla' when he was little. He'd say 'um, navilla, lavinna, um, valinna..... um, white one please!'

DH is 27 and still calls his dsis Flobble which is nowt like her real name. Only family members call her that since BIL mispronounced it as a toddler. The day she said 'call me Flobble' was a seminal moment in my acceptance into the family. I was less excited when BIL announced 'call me spam'.

DD is past mixing up words but we still have a washmeen (washing machine), a toy evverlunt (elephant) and many things in the colour leelow. The doctor also does a good line in medsuns.

DS (2.4) calls me Mummy Pig. I try to tell myself that it's becauae I'm such a lovely Mummy like Peppa Pig's (he adores that programme) but to be more realistic, it's bound to be down to my HUGE baby bump and ever expanding arse
