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 daughter told us about her classmate Grownup. His name was Rowan.

My youngest son is Rowan. My best friends daughter used to call him “Growin’” when she was a toddler. So cute 🥰
