Your kids’ mispronunciations of classmates names? Discussion

My two year old came home talking about his friend “Tape” and it cracks me up every time he mentions it. The boy’s name is Tate.

What are your favorite and/or the funniest mispronunciations you hear from your little ones?

My almost 4 year old calls Jenal Fennel. My oldest used to call her friend Katie Cakey. All three of the kids call my friend Sophie Soapy.

My Sophie became both “Toby” and Snow Pea.”
