Crazy doll names

When my daughter was about 15 months old, she started naming her dolls. At first I didn't know what she was doing. But, soon caught on after she'd yell out a name and point to her dolly. She named her stuffed persian cat, Meow Meow and her favorite cabbage patch doll was dubbed Tickle (or Ticka for short). She did this all by herself, without any help from me. Personally, I would have named the cabbage patch doll something more traditional or poetic like Hanna Belle. But, she insisted on picking her own doll names. Somehow the crazy names stuck and we haven't been able to change them ever since. Do your kids dolls have any crazy names, too? Or, is it just mine? Let's compare.

My daughter gets stuck on one name and all of her dolls are named that one name. The lastest one has been Lisa. I know she doesn't know a Lisa so I am not sure where it came from but that is what we call her dolls. Her My Little Ponies all have to have names that go with the picture on their bottoms. And she also has a collection of polar bears that have to be named after something white.

That is precious! Mine has a collection of stuffed cats, and each one is named Cal (except for the Meow meow doll). Tried to get her to name them something else, but she wouldn't budge. Eventually, I convinced her to name each one a variation of the name Cal, so that I could tell them apart. One of her favorite stuffed cats is now called Cal-L, sort of like Superman's Krypton name. That was all my idea.
