That awkward moment when Your Parent/s FORGOT Your Name .. (`_~)

I have seen a son forgetting the name of his father.He was my friend.We were taking admission in the college and filling in admission form.He had to write his father's name in a column.I was busy filling in my admission form.He suddenly stopped,looked at me with inquisitive eyes and asked,'Father's name!Oh God!What's his name?'I laughed,'You don't know your father's name?'He was still looking at me.And then he asked me,'Would you please tell me what my father's name is?'I burst into laughter.Then I told him his father's name.Now it was his turn to laugh,'Sorry,yaar,I had forgotten papa's name.And had you not told me,I would have written here,'papa.'

Hahaha.. When I read your discussion, I immediate remember my mother. She used to do this on us, we are four siblings in the family. And often times when she calls us especially when angry or destructed, she would call us by all our names.. Wondering which one of us, she really wants to see. When we came to see her, then she will realize only one of us she wanted to see.

Oh, I know how that feels like!!!!! We are 4 siblings, my dad and mom would call each and everyone of us even if they meant to call just one of us. I guess they were in a hurry to ask the question (before they forgot the question they wanted to ask in the first place) hehehee.. So they'd go calling all of us at random because they forgot the name. Hehehehe.. I guess you were only too busy thinking that's why you forgot their names. hehehe.. Bad mommy! Have a great mylot experience ahead!

This is one reason I would name all my kids the same... so if I remember one, they know I am referring to all And also, it would not play a load on my memory... I have other things too to remember

That is alright, but my daugher never tell my name to anybody, in case someone ask her, she will be in trouble, Not she, the person who listen the name will be really in trouble, they can't simply pronounce my name, instaed, they will say something and all will start laughing. So my daughter call me KK and even sometime wife also call KK. Oh, where I am going! So, finally who took the pen, out of the 3?

hi jai, Well Mom did not forget my name but my birthday Maybe because you are getting younger thats why it is happening to you miss yah not feeling well

My mom always called me on my daughters name, I'm the only one child but my daughters name sound like in my name too. That's why when were all together she mixed on calling our names.

Hi dear, Exactly same thing happens always with my mother in law. If she calls any of her sons mostly she starts from her second son’s name, who lives bit away from her home. She has four sons and mostly she called out all other’s name before the exact one. As it is a normal routine, all started to laugh when she call the one who is not at present home and eagerly waiting to listen who she wants exactly. When she called her daughter in laws name, the person may be around her, but she calls some one’s name, who is not around (lol). It happens with me too, I said the name of elder son instead of younger one. In fact I was scolding the younger one for something, but you know how he took advantage of mentioning the elder’s name wrongly, he said, mom scold you brother, not me (very smart). I said no, I scold you, he said no no, you said his name only…ugh!!!!! I think, it is not forgetting but some thing other than this, not getting the exact definition.

nahh, it happens a lot of times with me here dear sister. i have five of them. and there are times that i have to roll call them when i should only have to say is zayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! oh yes, that would be very suspicious when you have only one child and you call him/her with a lot of names.

Poor kid. Keep doing that, and she's going to get a complex. My "kids" are cats, so I don't have to worry too much if I slip and use the wrong name. They'll just get their revenge on me by walking on my rib cage or something--the usual deal. I know who is in charge here, and it's not the humans...

Jai sis, your this discussion reminded me of what had happened to my home a few years ago when i was still a teenager. There is someone looking for my sister on the phone. My father answered the phone and let my mother know that someone looking for my sister. My mother was still eating at that moment but she helped my father to call my sister who is still bathing the dog. Instead of calling my sister name, she called the dog's name. Uhh? My sister was surprised and asked my mother, who is looking for her dog. Then only my mother realized that she is calling the wrong name. What happened if the dog can even answer the phone???

Hi jaiho: That was a really amkward moment actually But I can understand this situations. Our minds can play us some treaks like this sometimes. I sometimes forgot a name and it's a very uncomfortable moment until you remember it. I try to act natural and not mention the name until I'm sure what's the name of the person ALVARO

That was funny, Jaiho! But my parents also commit that when they call one of us to do a chore. They would call me with the name of my sibling! Well, i guess they commit that out of haste of calling me. So, don't feel bad , jaiho.

I thought that was part of being a mom! lol I have 2 older sisters and a younger brother and our parents named us all a name that starts with "J". Our parents would go down the list and finally we'd get our name called. I just thought it was because our names all started with "J". Then found out after I had children, it doesn't matter or not if they start with the same letter or not, I can be looking a one child and call the other one their name.

Once in awhile I will call my kids each others names but not often. My parents are always calling my little neice my name accidentally because she acts so much like me when I was young. Now my little nephew is two months old and they keep calling him my sons name I guess because he was the youngest for so long.

We all do things like that occasionally . I once addressed a large package to our daughter using her maiden name. instead of her married name. She had already been married to her husband for 25 years at the time. Incidentally, he got a kick out of my goof.

oh this is so funny. ive done it all my kids lives and i have 5. they laugh about it these days. i tell them its because they have driven me so crazy.

Don't worry I do the same! the worst is when they call on the phone I have to ask are you such or such? and they get offended for goodness sake!

Oh no... It's the sign of... I hope your son did not get mad for something. My mom's sort of like that, interchanging the names of my 2 brothers. And, what I really find funny is that he keeps referring to the 2nd child as my "kuya" (Mom, is there something you're not telling me? I grew up thinking I'm eldest! LOOOLLL). So every time I have to correct her, no ma, he's not my kuya. I'm ate. LOOOOOLLLLLLL

Haha. This is really a fun story. :D My mom experience this kind of situation too. :D I have 4 more siblings, she was about to call me but she called all of my names including my niece's and nephew's. That was really funny. I think it was because of her excitement to tell me something about the good news. It happens to me sometimes too. :)
