Yabba!

"What's his name?"
"Daddy!"

"What's his name?"
"Kay-el!"

"What's my name??"
"Mamaa!"

"Good girl! And what's YOUR name??"
"YABBA!!"

Close, but not quite...

"Mah-lee-ah. Your name is Mah-lee-ah. Can you say 'Malia'?"
<.pause.> "Mah-YABBA!"

I don't know where she got "Yabba" or why she calls herself "Yabba," but she does. She's done that for months. It's not even close unless she adds the "mah-" in front so I'm totally baffled as to where it came from. I have to admit though it makes me laugh every time she says it.
