To want to shoot my friend

...for naming his daughter Tinkerbell?

I know I am actually BU as it's none of my business etc. Also shooting people is generally not the way to approach such matters.

I feel so sorry for the poor kid. She's going to go through torture at school. Not to mention thee rest of her life. Imagine a high court judge called Tinkerbell.

YANBU, you can't shoot him. Too much forensic evidence. Have you considered some kind of swift-acting poison?

I'm just impressed that the baby is showing such an early vocation for the Law.

...but I've got a shovel to help dispose of the body...

Do you think he's winding you up or has the poor child actually been named.

Do you need some rope to tie him up before you shoot him?

Have you told him she will be known as Stinkerbell at school?

No way.

A chihuahua maybe but not a human.

That's right OP it's none of your business, she is not your daughter.

pigsDOfly Sadly for "Tinky", her dad is not winding me up. Sad

WIBU to hit him with a brick, if shooting is off the cards?

I've a patch at the bottom of my garden that's perfect for hiding any evidence

That poor child, I think some parents just don't think long term when naming. Why didn't they give the child a normal name and just call it tinkerbell as some weird nickname?

Although my younger brother was at school with someone named Dipsy, he now has a very high flying job but calls himself a normal/sane name think Dave. Wedding was good "Do you take dipsy to be your dh"

I can already imagine the hysterical laughter and rolled eyes in the staff room when she starts school! I've watched Breaking Bad, plastic bath and acid?

Will the child have a middle she can revert to something like Jane or Anne?

When we registered DS, the registrar was relieved we named him a name that wasn't uncommon, with the usual spelling.
Earlier they'd had to register a child named after film character... of a different gender.
