Tell me I'm not the only one

[Bern]

My MIL always does this. And we always bag her out...hehehe
know however that i have 2 children..... i find myself doing it LOL

[~Trish~]

Yep, I am known to use every other name first (including the dog's) before I hit the right one...

[AngelPants]

This is normal in my family (which is huge) abd everyone does it. Generally go thru several names before the right one, just as likely a pet's name will come into it as well as siblings, parents, aunts, uncles and cousins.... Doesn't help when you've got double ups like Thomas Andrew, Andrew James & John Arthur James....

I was an only child but my parents still managed to call out the dogs names when looking for me!

[Party-of-five]

funny this should come up the other day at Millys party she was playing with a new present and Im going "Lucy?" "lucy" "Luuuuuuucy!!!" until someone pointed out that it was infact Milly
I do it all the time

[TeniBear]

I yelled at one of my brothers using my own name once...

I've only had 2 for a day but have already caught myself calling Aubrey, Imogen. They look so similar, it is almost like going back in time.

My mums always done it. Sometimes she'll throw the dogs names, or her sisters names in the mix before she catches the right one.

I do it all the time so when I get all muddled up I yell the blonde one or the gangly one boy with dark hair or girl.. DH has done it too..

[Charlotte91]

=) my mum does this ALL the time, she starts at the top and works her way down the list until she hits the name she wants.

My brother has never let her live down that one day she called the dogs name before his in the list. =P

My Dad does this.
I only have DD at the moment, but I have called DH by the cat's name...

[Purple Penguin]

Yup, and both my girls names start with E as well so twice as confusing... I also do it to my sister's kids and she to mine.

[No.5]

I only have one and I still call him the wrong name (usually my sister's damn names starting with the same letter!)

My Nan used to go through all the names of the family before she'd finally get it right

[BhoysGirl]

Funny thread I do it all the time, it's kind of a relief to know I'm not on my own!

[Beach Mama]

I do it too, but I do with DH and DS I yelled out to DS the other day but was calling DH's name and they were both looking at me confused!!! My MIL still does it too with DH and BIL lives OS so it's not like she talks to him all the time or anything!

[jacklicky]

My mum has four kids...Im not sure how often I have ever been called my right name first time!!!!
We all just answer to whatever name she calls us these days....especially when we are the only one with her...funny my dad never had that problem with our names.
Its funny!

[Bengal]

All the time : in fact so much so DD and DH and the cat all look when I talk until they figure out which one I really need

[Enchanted]

I do it all the time, DD & DS's names gets mixed up!
We have a female & a male dog that we have had since before the kids. So even their name's get mixed up with the kids
