Mama, Dadas name?

I'm curious,

How many of you know your parents name?
How old where you (roughly) until you finally learned your parent(s), or caregiver's name?

Post below how long it took you to learn your parent(s) name, or caregiver.

I know it seems like a silly question, but I grew up calling my parents mom and dad, seldom do I call them by their name.

@Vaiuation: Hi there Vaiuation.

OT: What I've been reading so far is a good number of people didn't learn their parent's name till roughly 4 ~ 7 years of age. Keep em coming please!

I should've been around 4 or 5.

@DrHye, @SonsOfAnarchy: some of the posters apparently did not learn their parents names until their adolescence...

I didn't learn my dad's name until... I was 7? It's one of those things that I didn't question when I was a kid, "what's my mum's, or dad's name?"

I was about 4. When I learned their names and remembered them, but I'm 18 and I'm still confused as to whether or not my dad has a middle name.. he says he doesn't, but his brothers say he does.. @_@

I don't... really call my mom anything. I guess if I had to I'd call her mom though. My dad gets mad when I call him anything but 'daddy'.
