What do you call this in your neck of the woods? Pacifier, dummy, binky???

[Charlotte ~08]

I read somewhere recently that its called a binky, never heard that one before!

I call it a baby's dummy.

I've heard it called a binky before, and a nook. My cousins kids call it a ninny. My nephew called his a kiki (sounds like kee kee), so that's what I call it.

I voted "other", because we called it the "plug". NOt cutesie term, but we knew what we were talking about!

My oldest is 12 - we spent the weekend with my nieces I kept calling it a binky and was told that's the name of the blanket - then the dn started screaming - and I yelled, "get the plug"



yep, it came back to me, we called it a "PLUG"

and the pacifier fairy came one day to take all the pacifiers to poor unfortunate babies... *sigh and I cried many a times wanting the dern plug back more than the child!!

ninnies are something totally different in our house! Thats funny... Anyhow, we call it a sassy. I dont know why.

Paci. Or, if we're really stressed, the, you know, that thing. We have twins.

Ninnies are something different here, too, but probably not the same thing they are at your house. LOL

We call them "mug plugs."

 

[damo]

We call it a soother.

(a) pluggie or (b) nah-nah

Oddly enough everyone knew exactly what it was ...

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

I call it a pacifier.

The spanish word for "dummy" is bobo and that's what we call the pacifier. In Portuguese I've heard it called a "shoo-py or "chu-pie" which is derived from the work Sucker.

My sons called it a "ludla," as did I, my mother, and my grandmother. Apparently it's the German word (or close to the German word) for either pacifier, or something that means something similar. Maybe someone who speaks German on here knows.

Bubbie...I don't know why but it just came out that way with my daughter.

Around here a lot of people call tehm tetay (not sure how you spell it). I think it's a Cuban thing...

 

[legalsea]

Blast, I thought it was another political thread when I opened it.

Anyway, pacifier in Texas, or Santa Anna's Thumb.

 

[GreatDaneMom]

DH is from rural North Carolina and they call it a "sugar *****." I almost fell out of my chair laughing the first time I heard one of his relatives say that.




Uh oh, I tried to post a forbidden word! I told DH that was a bad word up north and he thought I was exagerating. Sorry moderators.

Pacifier or paci. I've also heard it/used the word binky.
