What do you call pacifiers?

kjuliet91

Just curious what everyone else calls their LO's pacifiers. I just call it a "paci," but I also hear "binky" quite frequently and I have a friend that calls it a "Wah stopper."

BibliophileMom01

I call it a paci but my mom and MIL call it a binkie. I like the term 'wah stopper'...that's pretty accurate.

HRMJPC

Bink and Binky here.

 She also has a wubbanub and I will call it wubby. 

Wah Stopper?- too many syllables for me.

Chrelaine

I say binkie and I have no idea why. LOL

somalia

binky.

brittlandk

DH and then ILs call it a pipe.

Embarrassingly, my family calls them "Nookies."  The brand name is Nuk, which is where it came from, I'm sure, but Limp Biscuit sort of stole the innocence of our paci nickname.

Soother or sucky.

We call it "binky". Not sure where that term even came from.

We call it his 'bob' I'm really not for sure how we settled on that. DH hated paci. I HATE fooler (which is what MIL calls it) Niece calls it 'foo' Hate that too. So it's Bob.

We usually say 'Where's Bob?' when we're looking for it. ?

berrybuzz

Nuker, cuz the brand we use is Nuk

aforst

We call it a "paci" mostly b/c that's what my 2 y/o calls it.

NovBeth

We call it a ninny.  This is what a friend called it and we just went with it.

JDO

We just call it a pacifier, but when we were little my mom called them corkies, because they would cork us up.

AHblessed01

Binks or binky. Has anyone seen that movie Orange County and the little boy on there calls it a pootie? I thought that was so funny!

searcy7

I call it paci or "plug" (this is what my older daughter called it when trying to stick it in dd's mouth while dd was crying it kind of stuck).

Joeypnut

I call it a binky, or bink.  My mom calls it a plug.  A number of other people around me call it a pacifier. 

RobinSparkles214

I call it a bink or binky. It's too bad that baby doesn't want anything to do with any brand, so he uses me as his "binky".

la79al

I was determined to call it a paci but DD1 has decided it is a bubby.  No clue why, because she can say paci but I've given up and now they both have bubbys. 

scoutkate

Generally we call them pacis, but we call Betsy's paci Bunny b/c it is a bunny pacimal.

FishNchips1

paci or nunner

"Watcha got there?"

"My POOTIE!"

Haha! Love that movie!

HAHA!! Good I'm glad someone knows what I'm talking about! I love that movie too!

afiyfah

I'm originally from England, and we call them dummies. I don't give one to DD though.

My mom told me that a long time ago, the most common brand of pacifier was Binky, so I'm guessing that's where it comes from? I know Playtex still has a paci called binky.

Okay, this is horrible, but my ex's family were big on smoking weed. They called it bob and when they wanted to smoke, but didn't want to publicize what they were smoking they'd ask if anyone was bringing Bob to the party.

ETyorkin

We're Russian so we call it "soska" which literally means "nipple", haha ...unfortunately he refuses to take it. I've tried the MAM and the Soothie. Next step is the NUK because he seems to enjoy the NUK bottle. 

beccs98

My family all calls it a soother, but DH and MIL call it a dummy. Now since I hear MIL say it so often I will sometimes use "dummy" too.

MADDOX85

my SO is a football coach so he calls it his mouth piece. lol i call it his pass.(short for paci)
