Topic: What does your Toddler call themselves? Posted: 08 January 2010 at 1:49pm |
Maddi has just started saying her own name, every time she looks in the mirror, looks at photos or is really just talking about herself.
The funny thing is she calls herself "Ma'sin" (Madison) I know it is her name but most of the time we call her Maddi..??!? Go figure.
What does your child call them selves?

Issy calls herself Isabelle .. but pronouced more like IsaBELL.
Although when she looks in the mirror she sometimes says .. Thats you! She hasnt quite grasped the concept of "me" yet.

Tom calls himself Tom...or Me. If you ask him his name he will say Thomas Jack L........ He's grasped the me, you thing but I still chuckle when he announces "I Awake!!" when he wakes up. I have tried to tell him its "I'm awake" but then he says "I mam awake" too cute!

Jake calls himself dakob or sometimes dake - we usually call him Jake, but daycare quite often say Jakob and we do refer to him as Jakob -- he also says used his surname now. For ages everything was "my" as in "my do it" "my turn" "my this one" "my get it" etc ... but now he is getting "I" and "me".

Hehehe that's cute Nikki. When chosing a name we never factored in the fact that many toddlers find the "j" sound difficult to master ... so our little guy called himself "Dimmy" for a while . Thankfully he's moved on to "Jimmy" or "I" or "me" now .

Chloe calls herself "Toey", so cute. And when Ollie tries to steal a toy or a cracker or something off her she says "No! That's Toey's ....(insert object here)......!" Or "It's Toey's turn".

Spencer calls himself Spence, he doesn't say me, he's always talking about himself in the third person.

I love "Toey"
Hannah calls herself "Hannah" or "Hannie" when looking at photos or in the mirror. She hasn't grasped first person yet.
When she's being naughty (and knows it) she'll say "Han-MAY!" (Hannah May) and laugh.
