    DD said FCOT for YEARS!

    She just couldn't hear the "EP" part and was sure she was saying it right.

    My daughter also said "Fcot"
    The other non disney mispronunciation was
    "hucky fried chicken" instead of Kentucky fried chicken.

    No really mispronunciations, but here are two my kids did.

    My youngest called Chip and Dale "Chip and Dip" for years.

    My oldest called the Polynesian "ohana's" for the longest time.

    One of my son's first words was Dinney, for Disney. He would use it for Mickey Mouse, too, and shout it excitedly from his stroller every time we were in sight of the Disney Store in the mall. He started saying it at 9 months, along with Dee Doo, which he would use at appropriate times to say thank you. I was convinced he was a baby genius. He's 21 now and... I might have been a little off. But I love him.

    My DD (12) when she was 3 or 4 used to call Mickey Mouse "Icky Louse". We still say that sometimes.

    She also replaced every "F" with an "S". So she would do things "herselss" or take her shoes "oss".

    Her favorite character was "Sigment".

    My youngest always wanted to ride the "tramp" from the parking lot. So yes, the tram will always be the tramp to us.

    My now 5 year old nephew, who is speech delayed called Mickey "Eye you" up until about a year ago. That's about the only way to spell it. Not quite sure how he came up with that.
