Pooh Bear, Tgr, Piklet and He-Whore

Kids sometimes pronounce names in a funny way. Here is a transcript( or an attempt to create a transcript) of an actual conversation that took place during my birthday party between one of my friends and my eldest daughter.

Unca Earl: Who is this Sam?
(pointing to the favorite lovable yellow bear)

Sam:
Pooh!

Unca Earl: Who is this Sam?
(pointing to another lovable character)

Sam:
Tgr!

Unca Earl: Who is this Sam?
(pointing to yet another lovable character known as Piglet)

Sam:
Piklet!

Unca Earl: How about this, Sam?
(pointing to Eeyore)

Sam:
E-wore

Unca Earl: He-whore?
(obviously amused)
