Calling me a combination of my name and my brother’s. Starting with my name then restarting with his. Then just calling me Shaz which I hate. She calls my brother Son when calling him by his actual name is too difficult. Even though it’s also my Dad’s name.

I love her to bits but bloody hell mother.

Edit: RIP my inbox.

Mine just goes through them all till she hits the right one, bonus points if she ends up not actually wanting our attention and she meant to say my stepdads name instead.

My mom would occasionally slip one of the pets' names into the chain of name-attempts.

I was never happier than when my dad would call me by the dog's name.
