My DC2 has quite an unusual first name. My mum has informed her sid of the family he is called his middle name instead. I know of this as my aunt wrote to me all about (middle name) and congratulations on birth etc and how is he getting on etc. I wrote back and told her (first name) is doing well. 
I am NC with my mother for other reasons (amongst them disregarding choices I make, but much worse as well)
AIBU?
