My friend's baby is due shortly and she has decided on the name but when she told us what it's going to be I was a bit shocked. It's Ava Brown.

Is it just me or is anyone thinking what I'm thinking?

The Hitler association was the first thing I thought of, too. I'd definitely mention it to the friend.

It was the first thing I thought of. You have to tell her, and let her decide. She may already know, and be happy to ignore the link.

That said, I am occasionally gob-smacked when what I thought were well-known facts come as new to others!

Years back, myself and a friend were queuing up to see "Titanic" on the opening night. We're both former art/design students, and we were speculating about how they would show the sinking - CAD, models etc.
Some women behind us were tutting (!). My mate asked them what was wrong, and one said "You've given the ending away!"

We were a bit Confused !

Eva Braun was the first thing that popped into my head, before I’d finished reading the OP.

You have to tell her!

Worst thing is when she said what the name was going to be I was so shocked I just went "oh that's lovely".
