My child calls me any of these:

Mom, Mommy, Mama, and also by my first name. Dc gets a laugh out of calling me by my real name.

I like mommy.

I get called mommy, mom, Holly and Holl.

I've never liked mama, nor have I ever heard irl in this area.

No kids yet, and no idea what I'd want them to call me. Not "mother," though, that just sounds so stiff to me.

I still call my parents "Mommy" and "Daddy" . . . most kids tend to switch at some point, but I never did. Not sure why.

I'm always Mama. I guess I figured it was a southern thing, since I don't know of anyone who isn't called that or maybe mommy from a very young child. Mommy would drive me up the way for some reason.

My dd calls me mama mostly, but has taken to calling me "mommy" due to the fact that other people refer to me as that : ... Like in a grocery store or something "Oh your MOMMYYYYY got you a balloon!!!" I know they don't mean harm but I prefer "mama" way more than "mommy" though it all sounds cute coming from dd...

Sometimes she calls me by my first name too which she thinks is just too funny. I don't mind!

My 15-month old calls me "Ommy".... I just love it! I hope to become "Mommy" as she gets older, but I'm not rushing the "Ommy" stage. I have a feeling I'll miss it when it's gone.
