Both of our kids have the letter L in their name (Charlie and Olive). It took a while before they stopped pronouncing their names with a W instead of an L!
Now I kinda miss hearing them say, Chawee and Owive! Time flies...
Did your kids ever mangle their names?

Simone is "Moan" and her twin brother as pronounced by her is "Wobin" (not Robin). Robin doesn't use his name yet but I have heard him say "Ceee" as in Sissy for Simone. It is just all so cute!

Poor girl can't say S at the beginning of words and can't pronounce L, so Stella is "taya."

My LO pronounces his name closer to "Eton" like "Eton Mess." He just can't get the H sound. H's and V's are tricky for him, but I love when says "eleben."

Lyla = Wywa. I should record it so I can remember it when she starts saying it right
And she calls Keira 'Key-a'

D is Daniel, but he had trouble with the n, so it was De-yul for the first couple years.

Charlotte is her name, and she says "SHAW-wut." She says, "HAIR-sun" for her baby bro. It's so cute!

@HabesBabe: That's a cute pronunciation of Charlotte! DD2 is named Charlotte and big sister calls her Shart! I know it's a terrible butchering of her name, but I actually find it quite cute and hope she doesn't learn how to say it correctly for quite some time yet!
DD1 calls herself Emmy instead of Emily. L and V sounds are very tricky for her - we have a family friend named a David and I LOVE hearing her say Dabid!

@Ree723: OMG Shart?!?!? Hahahah that would make me laugh uncontrollably. Kids are so freaking cute.
@mamimami: Larlotte is adorable! I call her "Lotte" sometimes and that makes me think of that.

@Ree723: I'm laughing so hard I am about to wake up the baby I'm holding!
Isabelle gets pronounced IZZY-belle by her sister. It's kind of caught on as a family nickname when we tease her.
