What do you call your parents when you talk to them? Do you call them by their first names or no? I remember when I was younger, I would hear children call their parents by their first names and I thought that was the craziest thing in the world. I still call my father 'Daddy'. Even if I'm referring to him in the third person. Not Dad, Pop or Pops. Daddy. Will prob. do it for the rest of my life. I call my mother 'Ma'. I refer to her in the third person as 'Mama'. Same with her as well.

I call my mother "Ma" and my father by his first name.

Mom and Dad.

Mom and Dad, though if we're in a public place and I want to get their attention, I'll often use the Japanese names for Mom and Dad so I don't have a whole bunch of moms and dads looking up when they hear that.

Mom and Dad. I never could use the first names. I know a lot of people do, but I could never. My mom was very against people doing that. So much, in fact, when my son went through that phase at age 3, of trying to call us by our first names, it bothered my mom so much.

Mama and Pop
