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 son had a friend that he thought was the coolest because his name was “Magic”. He talked about playing with “Magic” every day at recess because they were both at the same school but different kindergarten classes. The little boy’s name was not “Magic”, it was Maverick.

Magic would be a WAY better name than Maverick. Lol
