just had a mad conversation with 13 year old grandson Brandon

[dotty.]

we were discussing what name they'll give my new granddaughter, they had decided on Alana but I said it would be too close to Anya and give their teachers a headache in years to come, grandson pipes up, 'Nan, you get my name mixed up with Uncle William and Brandon is nothing like William and so you can talk!' he's a cheeky begger!

LOL, out of the mouths of babes :)

Dotty, it's a fair point, it's not the teachers that will have the problem....

Lovely name and easy for the teachers compared to some!

My three daughters are all over 30 and I still call them by each other's names. At least I get my wife's name right. Even in my sleep!!!!!!

I called my son Carl by my dog's name Taz, he was most put out !

I have 2 older sisters, and when Granny lived with us she used to go through my sisters' names when she was calling me! I was not amused!

I sometimes call the dog by my daughter's name...dohhh.
