My brother's name is Charlie and it took a looooong time for me to be able to say it! I called him Cheetah!

Caidence can pronounce her own name but has problems pronouncing her sister's name Lillian, it comes out sounding like Wiwian.

Ben's name is simple so yes but he pronounces his sisters name "El-wee" for Elly. Oh and F's and still sounding like P's (a letter in our last name).

@Mrs. Bee: I was actually discussing this just the other day with a friend who is studying speech therapy. She explained that it isn't that a child doesn't hear his mispronunciation, the problem is he is still incapable of making those two consonant sounds together. When he repeats he's trying to say it right, he just can't yet. I imagine my daughter will call herself Awice until she gets the l sound down.
