Cute topic: How do your little ones (mis)pronounce their siblings' names?
We have a Katherine, an Abby and a Patrick.
Abby is 3.5 and our middle child. When she began using Katherine's name, she would strictly say, "Connie."   This spun off into the nicknames "Con" and "Conna." Mysteriously JUST as she turned 3, Connie was out. Now she calls her by name, but pronounces it as "Kasswin." Her nickname is now "Kass."
As for Patrick, she pronounces it "Paxwick," and his nickname is "Pax." She said to me yesterday, "His first name is Pax and his last name is Wick." 
She really loves the nicknames!
As for Katherine, Abby is so easy to say that she never had a problem...except with Abigail which she would pronounce as "Abbybale" when she was very little.
What about your little ones?

We're still working on DS saying DD's name.
We'll say, "Say Mor-gan"
DS will say, "Baby"
"No B, say MOR-GAN"
DS: "BAY-BEE"
To OP: This is adorable: "His first name is Pax and his last name is Wick."

Well, DD doesn't have any siblings yet- but my BFF's daughter and her are very close. DD's name is Kaitlyn, and BFF's DD's name is Lea.
Lea calls Kaitlyn "Kakewin" (b/c that is how she started saying it when she couldn't say Kaitlyn)  and Kaitlyn calls Lea "Lea Bo Peee-aaaa"
If you call Kaitlyn "Kakewin", she scolds you and tells you that only Lea can call her that.

Not "my" kiddo but when my nephew Liam was little he couldn't pronounce his older sister's name (Jennifer) so he just started calling her "school" - 'cause she was always going off to school!

Re: Cute topic: How do your little ones (mis)pronounce their siblings' names?
DD is currently an only child...but she has nicknamed the cat
The cat's name is Lexie...I used to call her Lexi-belly. Well, when DD was starting to speak, "L" was (and still is) hard...so she called her "Feh-Belly"...it stuck...She CAN say Lexie now, but the ENTIRE family calls the cat FehBelly now...

Robbie used to call Noah "NoNo" and he still does! He also called my mom "Uma" instead of Grandma.
Noah - once he could talk called Robbie "RaaRaa" and then switched to "Brubba". Now he just calls him Robbie.
When I was little I called my sister Eleanor "Nor Nor" and "Onanaw" and my little sister was "Dit-Da" (Sister).

Not a mispronunciation, but he calls her every nickname in the book.
We call DD's paci a "moomoo", so DS calls her the "moomoo migimonster" (from Pinky Dinky Doo) or "Princess Poopie Pants" but usually just "Baby Sissy"
When you ask him what her real name is, he says "livia - like my show" (Olivia)
eta : uh, yeah, we watch too much TV here!
