What would your children like to have been called if they had the choice? These were the suggestion of my DS who is 4.

I can top Book or House.

When I was expecting DS3, the older two boys came up with either 'Purple Jetski' or 'Armbandsie'.

DS would like to be called box and when asked about a name for new baby sister he suggested either baby or sister.

Considering he has a hamster called hamster and a fish called fish I shouldn't have expected much else.

One of our son spent a summer insisting he was called Amy !!!! He also dressed in his sisters clothes , he's now in his 20s and show no tendencies to cross dress or have a sex change! It was an odd summer to say the least :)

Grin at "Penguin Acrobat".

I get the impression that's quite common Slave. Remember my brother going through a dresses stage too. I think it's just trying out the other gender's behaviour. Probably girls do it too but we don't notice as much.
