I feel like I've heard a lot of dumb made-up words for "pacifier", but now I can't remember any of them. I want to have some on hand to call the thing to amuse myself. Any ideas?
Wub-a-nub. I think it's a brand of paci that has a little stupid stuffed animal thing attached to it. All I know is that my mommy friends (gag) are constantly searching for the wubby (double gag).
We call it a "paci" at our house, which is probably kind of dumb. But I prefer it to bink or binky. Seems like I've also heard Nuk (which I think is a brand?).

I call them plugs. Lol.
Those are so ugly. I mean, it's a cute idea, but there is a stuffed animal hanging from your child's mouth.
We always just called it a pacifier. Luckily, Ada spit it out at about 3 months and that was the end of that. We didn't need to refer to it at all anymore. I'm not a fan of the stuffed animal ones or the ones with mustaches...

Yes, they definitely look odd, but they are awesome if your baby takes a pacifier! The stuffed animal helps the pacifier stay in LO's mouth, and if it does fall out, it's easier for baby to find and put back in. It's a lifesaver so you're not having to get up 37 times a night to put the pacifier back in LO's mouth.
DS dropped the "paci" part of pacifier and called them "fiers".

I too judged until we drove to my parents' reaching back to replace the pacifier every ten minutes. We LOVE his WubbaNub - he holds onto it and keeps it in place now. We have the frog, so we call that one the Froggy.
Otherwise, we call it bink, binky, paci, plug, and sucky-thing.

Here's a funny (and ridiculously extensive!) list I found: https://www.babycenter.com/0_160-pet-names-for-the-pacifier_3659111.bc.
Oops - looks like we both found the same list. There are some crazy names on there!!
lol I agree... these seem so odd to me.

When I was little, I called mine a "Loo-loo."
My husband calls them "Be-bops."
I hold on so hard and pray that I won't say something wrong. I look at the stars and dream that the universe was ours.
