A pacifier is a rubber, plastic, or silicone nipple substitute given to an infant or toddler to suckle on between feedings to quiet their distress by satisfying the need to suck when they do not need to eat. Pacifiers normally have three parts: an elongated teat, a handle, and a mouth shield that prevents the child from swallowing or choking on it. Pacifiers have many informal names: ''binky'' or ''nookie'' (American English), ''dummy'' (Australian and British English), ''dokey'' (informal Scots), ''soother'' (Canadian English), and ''dodie'' (Hiberno-English).
