She was doll obsessed until adolescence, and had a coupe dozen child and baby types, most of them inexpensive, but a few nicer ones from various Christmases, etc.  Strangely didn't give any of her dolls permanent names, but would create new names for various elaborate scenarios she would concoct, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends, like playing "School" where she would be both the teacher and the mother of a child who was having issues with other kids, or "Orphanage"  where she would be both the woman who ran the orphanage and the prospective parent. It was fascinating, though admittedly mildly disturbing, to hear her carry on involved conversations, speaking for imagined characters and the dolls,  alone in her room for an hour at a time. When she hit her teen years she traded in playing with dolls for binge watching CW shows on her laptop. 

This is completely normal behavior and yes fascinating.  One child development book I read had the example of 5 year olds playing in a play house.  One little girl was sweeping and she said oh there's so much work-I really need a maid.  Then she went outside and came back in and said I'm the new maid!  and began sweeping.  

I would love to read a book that was transcriptions of children's play conversations.  If you can remember any of the things she said I would love to hear it.

Gotcha.  Ok I was just afraid that maybe you had never heard of him and he showed up in your dream which would be solid evidence he actually exists.
