パパ correct usage
i was trying to read "doraemon" and i think that the boy is calling his dad パパ  instead of  おとうさん. Is this common?

Answer

Yes, it's common. But only small kids and young women say パパ, I suppose. A few boys call their dad パパ in Japan, but it actually sounds weird... though. :p
There're other names for Father. とうさん、 とうちゃん、おやじ、お父様　and a lot!

Answer

Depende de la familia pero muchas personas dicen que パパ y ママ como se dice en español. O おとうさん y おかあさん.
