At some point, we all may be guilty of calling our children by the wrong name or mixing up names.
But one woman who says she consistently gets her kids' names mixed up has revealed the reasoning behind the faux pas.
Mum-of-two Amanda Sarah has expressed her baby name regret on TikTok, admitting she often gets her two daughters confused after giving them similar-sounding names.

Amanda says she gave both of her daughters names beginning with the letter K - Karah and Kinah จC but has since come to regret that decision.
She shared her story in a stitch to a TikTok video by comedian Gabby Lamb, who asked parents, "I have a question for parents, do you ever regret what you named your kid?"
"I do regret naming my kids with the same first letter, why would I do that? Honestly, I don't know who came up with the idea, but I'm sitting there calling my kids different names จC Karah, Kinah, Karah, Kinah."
"Like, I looked at my mum when she called me a different name, like, 'How could you forget my name, Mum?' and here I am doing the same thing," the mum added.

However, Amanda was seemingly not alone with a number of parents sympathising with the mum in the comments of the TikTok.
One amused mum chuckled: "I have two 'R' kid names. Worst idea ever."
"It's a mum thing! My brother and I start with different letters and she always calls us different names," another TikTok user added.
