Expecting dad tries to name his son ‘Josh Allen’ after NFL quarterback behind his wife’s back, gets angry at his best friend when he points out the connection: ‘I assumed she knew about the player and didn’t care’
I don’t understand the urge to name your kid after a prominent figure. Some exceptions work, like Martin Luther King Jr., but I’m sure even he was annoyed by people jokingly asking him, «How was the Protestant Reformation?» before he made a name for himself. There was a girl at my high school named Amelia, …

Parents refuse to call 15-year-old daughter by her middle name after unusual first name prompted bullying: ‘They claimed that I’d always be bullied…and a name change wouldn’t prevent anything’

15-year-old named Arthur wants to change his ‘grandpa name’ to Dex, mom claims Dex is a fake name: ‘She told me not to insult her’
Nicknames are powerful. They can become almost more important than your given name in some cases. But there are two types of nicknames: ones that you choose, and ones that are thrust upon you.

Baby names can be a great way to honor those you love or those who have passed. Think of all the times in TV shows when a couple symbolically names their child after someone who has helped them along the way. Not only is it a great storytelling device, but it’s a nice real-life gesture. …

‘You’re both idiots’: New parents make an unconventional baby-naming deal, husband wants out after hearing wife’s ideas
It’s a well-worn trope that celebrities give their children wacky names (Think North West, Moon Unit Zappa, or most of Nick Cannon’s many children). I wonder why that is.

New mom’s baby name tribute to ‘Nana Lottie’ goes horribly, hilariously wrong: ‘To say the family lost their minds would be an understatement’
Naming a baby is a tough job. It’s a decision that will stay with them for the rest of their lives, whether they like it or not. But it’s hard to make a decision when you haven’t gotten to know them yet. You don’t know what their personality is, what they’re going to look like, …
