Spinoff...What do you call a pacifier?

[Disneylover99]

We called it a luchee.

Binkie

 

[Vijoge]

Yup. Binkie. Even if it's not a Binkie brand, it's still a Binkie. We used NUK. Still called it a Binkie.

 

[MainMom]

Pacifier. My kids did not use them so no nicknames.

 

[Aliceacc]

A pacifier. My kids each used them for a few months, then simply lost interest.

 

[Claire&TheBoys]

We called it a binky or bink for short. Sometimes now when I volunteer at the church nursery I call it a paci.

 

[MariMama]

My first child wouldn't take a pacifier, so we didn't have a nickname for it until the second one came along. Then we called it a paci.

 

[lizabu]

Soother or pacifier

 

[VillainFavs]

Never heard of it called a paci until on these boards.

Always a binkie to us. But my babies are teenagers so maybe it's a time thing....

Mine are 15 and 19. It may also be regional.

That might be it too. Honestly, had never heard the term before! Only thing I've ever heard is either a pacifier or a binkie. Or some families might have a silly made-up name that their little one uses for it, just like a special name for a blanket or favorite stuffed animal.
