Numby = food of any kind (onomatopoetic).

Nunny = dress of any kind.

Milly = dressing, and any article used in dressing, e.g. a pin.

Lee = the name for her nurse, though no one else called the woman by any other name than nurse.

Diddle-iddle = a hole; hence a thimble; hence a finger.

Wasky = the sea.

Bilu-bilu = the printed character “&,” invented on learning the first letters of her alphabet, and always afterwards used.
