Default Shared language in your family

Do you and your family have any exclusive slang or words for things no-one else would know? Maybe they're based on long-forgotten in jokes or mispronounciations which caught on?

I once said to a friend of mine "are you watching Dodoo after neema?" and he gave me the oddest look, it took me a minute or so to realise what was wrong

Spoiler:

Neema was what my sister called swimming when she was still mostly speaking in "baby language", and Dodoo is what my uncle called Doctor Who was he was about 3
