Yes, it’s a lost pacifier In a parking lot. Someone had a long and perhaps loud ride home Unless they had a spare.
So there are many nicknames for a pacifier.
By what name do you call it?
It might depend where you live or perhaps a family special moniker. (This photo is not intended to spark debate on whether pacifiers are good or bad.)
Lost Pacifier in a parking lot.8:03 AM Update> I posted on FB and have received quite a few varied nicknames Binky/Binkie, Nuk. Nukkee, Bobby, Choca, Chupete, In Sweden- Napp (bite), Nuggi, Peace of Mind, Smokk- Norway or Tut-Tut, Kiki, Nuggi
Rick says it’s “schnuller” in German.
binkie, or in this case a kid crying out of control
We call them dummies here 🌏
Thank you Rainee. I was hoping to get a variety of responses. 😀
I always called it a pacifier. But most of my friends said it was a binky.
I’ve heard some wild nicknames for it and hope someone will reveal their special family label. Thanks E
We used to call them soother. Julius Caesar used to pacify rebellious tribes. On second thought pacifier may be a better term. Haha!
Most of the people I come in contact with call them a nukee. I think based on the name brand nuk.
Ahhh. I remember the Nuk. Thanks, Mary Kay.
I am not sure what it is called now in New Zealand but in my younger days we called it a ‘dummy’.
We call it a suckie, but when Ava made some little friends at the library, she learned from them to call it a pacie. Natalie has pacifiers that are attached to little stuffed animals and they’ve all been given names. The red dog is called Cliff, the elephant is called Ellie and the giraffe is called Jerry. Where’s Cliff? Do you have Ellie? What happened to Jerry? These are frequent topics of conversation. Cliff is the favorite and we always worry about losing him.
Love this story ❤️
We called Yoni’s pacifier his “motesetz” Hebrew for pacifier. He always carried a spare. One in his mouth and one in each hand!
We called it a binkie sometimes, or a sookie (not sure why)
We called them ‘Nuk’ because that was the brand name of the ones we used.
Yes. Someone wrote her kids called them “fiers”
I call them a pacifier, but when talking to a child I call it a “paci”. And when C used a paci, we ALWAYS had several on hand! 😀
Multiples on hand? Very wise.
