That's called a "robe", Abin. Like it is an "action figure" not a "doll".

A colleague of mine recently referred to the cassock and surplice I wear as a chorister as a muumuu.

When I was little and would see some cows while driving, my brother would say that they are chickens. I would argue with him saying they say "moo" so they must be cows. He would then say they are "moo chickens".

There was one day when one of the basses was distracted while we were vesting and he accidentally put on two of the vestments worn over the cassock: He had a surplus surplice.
