Changing Names for Baby

When we first tried to teach Juliet to say her sister's name, she started calling her "Baby aa-aa-aa", which I think was her attempt at the three syllable name, Adeline. Then she started calling her "Baby aa-EE" which soon became "aa-EE KLEEEEYR" (Addie Claire, which is what I call her). Most recently, though, she started saying "Baby Onnie". I have no idea why, or where she got it from. When I ask her "is that your sister's name?", she replies "Baby Addie!" Maybe "Onnie" is easier to say than "Addie"? But "Addie" sure is close to "Daddy" and she doesn't have a problem with that... Hmph. It's a mystery.

I've got to say, "aa-EE KLEEEEYR" is my favorite. I'm sure next week it will be something different.
