25 Times People Forgot What A Thing Is Called, So They Made Up The Funniest New Name

Have you ever forgotten the name of the familiar things around you? We don't know why, but while we are having a conversation, more often than not, our minds suddenly go blank. We may ask, "Oh, what's that thing's name?" "It must begin with a B or something, I thought." We're referring to the agonizing sensation of being on the edge of remembering a word or a name but failing to do so despite our best efforts.
When a Redditor called the_slippery_shoe went to the r/AskReddit subreddit to ask members of this group: "What's the funniest name you've heard someone call an object when they couldn't remember its actual name?" People didn't hesitate to share their most hilarious situations when they or others couldn't express themselves in words. So, we have compiled a list of the best ones, from "Carpet Banjo" to "moo beasts" and "disco chickens". The creative names people made up might be officially absorbed into our vocabularies. Scroll down to check them out. Let's have a fun time together!!
