EVEN though we spent months agonising over our kids’ names, the second they arrived we used everything but their real moniker.
Looking back on it, we’re surprised our kids ever learnt their real names at all when we spent the first two years of their lives referring to them as “snuggle muffin”.
But now one mum is urging other parents to think twice about speaking to their devices in front of babies.
In a viral TikTok video that’s racked up over 507,000 views, mum Sarah-Jane filmed her partner chilling out with their baby boy Logan on the sofa.
Her husband jokingly explained: “Today I found out something very disturbing… he doesn’t even know his name.”
The couple took turns calling Logan’s name to try and get their baby’s attention – but he wasn’t having any of it.

But when they referred to their Amazon Alexa, he was suddenly all ears.
Sitting next to them on the settee, Logan’s mum said the name Alexa – which prompted her baby to turn to her expectantly.
As she tried to hold back giggles, Sarah’s husband said: “THAT’S what he thinks his name is.”
Showing that it wasn’t just a one-off fluke, Logan’s dad added: “He looks at you in the eye when he say his OTHER name.
The mum then captioned the clip: “Too late for a name change…”
But it turns out Logan’s parents aren’t the only ones facing this dilemmas of this sort.
One mum responded in the comments: “My 3 year old went to nursery the other day and they asked him about mummy’s friends.
“He said ‘Alexa, she’s the only one who listens to mummy at home.’
Another added: “I think this is proof that his parents have a bit of an Alexa addiction.”
Meanwhile, a third joked: “I’m sure you can just tippex the birth certificate.”
For more parenting stories, this mum picked the perfect baby name but trolls say her son will be bullied for life – it doesn’t mean what they think though.
And this young mum revealed she constantly gets ‘dirty’ looks for not dressing up but when she makes an effort it’s a different story.
Plus people can’t believe this mum’s son was potty trained at six months but it’s easy – she said you just need to make the effort.
