I'm not going to talk about using the dogs name to yell at my son or my sons name to yell at the dog. In my defense!!! they both start with B's.
I think it gets anyway with a bunch of kids, but it doesn't help if you name them all similar or with the same letters. That's how it was when I was growing up, I'm the oldest of 6 kids, 3 girls all start with A and 3 boys all start with J. I think sometimes my mom wouldn't even get the sexes right haha she'd have to go through the whole list. But you knew you were really in trouble when she nt only got your name right, but used your middle and last names too.
