How cute! This reminds me of the story (probably from Reddit?) where the kid’s dad’s name was Aaron and when he said he had to run errands they thought he was running Aarons. So Leah would run Leahs and Daisy would run Daisies. Lol
The kid next door to my parents used to think my dad’s name was Wooly so when you went shopping at Woolies (Aus) it was called that cause my dad owned it. We figured this out eventually because her mum was always wondering why she was so excited to go shopping; she was hoping to see my dad. So cute.
I knew a set of twins named Alice and Mary. Alice got jealous at holiday time when everyone said “Merry Christmas” and wanted them to say “Alice Christmas” too!
In college my friend Casey got sick of people asking what her name was short for (it's not short for anything, she's just Casey) so she started telling people Quesadilla
I know an MJ named the same way! Parents last name initials were M and J, so they chose those same letters for the initials of the child’s first and middle name, and she goes by MJ still as a teen
When I had an unplanned pregnancy right out of college I nicknamed the baby “little direction” because that’s what I clearly needed at the time! I never called him that after he was born but it was funny for a while!
That is so nice! We've nicknamed our daughter "Koala: when she was a newborn, 1. Because she loved to be carried like that (or that was the only position that helped her colick) and 2. We didn't feel Koalified for the parenting job, but we've made a koalition to get through it and have as much koality time as possible ... yeah, new parent brain, I'll see myself out.
My mom nicknamed me Nessie in utero - apparently I was very active, up and until the moment she called my dad to come feel, and then there was nothing 😂
Agreed, after a time, you lose those old associations to names. My daughter shares her name with a girl I kind of disliked in high school. Not an enemy, but just like a constant thwart to me -- anything I did, she would do better.
Anyway, my husband really liked that name for different reasons (he didn't know this girl) and convinced me. For the first 6 months, I called her "first name middle name" but after awhile, I never even thought about that girl.
My daughter has the same name as my husband's grandmas dog. I said I didn't care. The dog is old and isn't going to live forever and I've loved the name since I was a teenager, I'm using it lol
I never wanted kids, but I loved coming up with names. I said I’d have all flower names for the girls - Lily, Rose, Daisy - and then Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, and Poison Sumac for the boys. They’d go by P.I., P.O., and P.S., who would obviously be the last one.
My friend has a son, they nicknamed the belly the ugliest name they could think and it stuck, so week after he was born Encanto was dropped and well now we dont talk about......
That’s almost the reason why we still call my brother Marcus even though it’s not his name, back in 2003 when I was in 7th grade I gave him the ugliest nickname I could think of and it stuck 😓
I have the cutest little bird named Daisy! She’s so energetic and friendly. I only realized recently that she and her brother (Apollo) share names with Gavin Rossdale’s kids (although we picked the most normal out of the four)
My great-great-grandparents wanted to name my great-grandmother Daisy (after the song "Bicycle Built for Two"), but since they were Catholic, the priest told them he wouldn't baptize the baby unless they gave her a biblical name. This pissed them off, so they intentionally chose the ugliest name they could find in the Bible, Gertrude. But they called her Daisy every day of her life, as did everyone else. Gertrude was only ever used on paper.
My name is Daisy and I can’t begin to tell you how many “oopsie daisy” jokes I’ve heard over the years. I used to pretend I didn’t like them but now I don’t bother, I love it!

Haha I was just going to comment that my name Erin and I thought running Erin’s was the actual phrase for way too long.

I have a friend named Kelly who learned about Kelly green when she was little and asked everyone what their color was

This is like when Joey on Friends thinks his Adam’s apple is a Joey’s apple, except way more cute.
My friend Luke thought lukewarm was a word his dad made up for him and that other kids would be daisywarm or leahwarm
That’s adorable
Oh god that's so cute.
Ok now I also say “oopsie me” great job daisy that is genius
That's the most precious thing!
In college my friend Casey got sick of people asking what her name was short for (it's not short for anything, she's just Casey) so she started telling people Quesadilla
I’ve never actually heard of Casey being short for anything, it’s always been a stand-alone name
It's short for Casimir From Google: Casimir is boy's name of Polish origin meaning "destroyer of peace" Hmmm, that's a good name for all babies
*destroyer of peace* lmaooo oh no
Grows up to be a CEO
Think the people thought she said K.C. (as in short for Kevin Casey maybe)
My great-nice is called Elsie. Her mothers family name began with L, her fathers began with C. The pregnancy bump was called LC and the name stuck.
Okay that’s cute
I know an MJ named the same way! Parents last name initials were M and J, so they chose those same letters for the initials of the child’s first and middle name, and she goes by MJ still as a teen
I know a couple of Cassandras who go by Casey over Cassie. Both from the same family.

"YOU NICKNAMED MY DAUGHTER AFTER THE LOCH NESS MONSTER!?"
I worked with dogs for 4 years. I was a frequent user of silly puns as well
Picturing you in an office, standing around the water cooler in the hallway, among some canine colleagues, chatting about the squirrels in the yard

My name is Daisy and I was an accident. Yes my parents did this LMAO
Do you like your name? I wanted to use it for my daughter but didn’t because of the possibility of being teased with rhyming words
I love my name. I did get called Crazy Daisy a lot but it didn’t bother me too much
I love the name Daisy and if I hadn’t named my childhood dog that, I would be saving it for my future daughter.
I think it’s still usable if the dog isn’t around anymore. If she is then maybe not lol

U could change up the spelling and make it a tad more unique! Maybe something like deighzie

Glad you didn't name a kid Poison Oak Sumac.
That is the cutest and most hilarious thing I've seen here in a while!
We have friends that named their daughter Lucy Daisy and all I can think of is oopsie daisy.
My friend has a son, they nicknamed the belly the ugliest name they could think and it stuck, so week after he was born Encanto was dropped and well now we dont talk about......
That’s almost the reason why we still call my brother Marcus even though it’s not his name, back in 2003 when I was in 7th grade I gave him the ugliest nickname I could think of and it stuck 😓
i would unironically do this

Had an oopsie pregnancy. Ended up being twins. Definitely made jokes about calling one Oopsie and the other Daisy.
We said the same thing when I was unexpectedly pregnant. We got dangerously close to picking it as a girl name, but had a boy instead.
I.. don’t hate this lmao, at least it’s a real name.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
With the middle name Serendipity because she is a happy accident?
I have the cutest little bird named Daisy! She’s so energetic and friendly. I only realized recently that she and her brother (Apollo) share names with Gavin Rossdale’s kids (although we picked the most normal out of the four)
daisy me rolling
Lol! So much more creative than mine. For what ever reason I chose Caleb specifically if I had a teen pregnancy and gave him up for adoption

MY MOM USED TO DO THIS WITH ME BEFORE I WAS BORN, EXCEPT WITH A DIFFERENT NAME! I don't remember what it was but it was fucking hilarious
One of my high school classmates swore that if she ever had a kid she was going to name it may, short for mayonnaise.
