With everything going on with DH (previous thread) I may be potentially be about to fall out with my best mate if I tell the truth
She is pregnant due in a month and she has texted me to ask what I think of the name they have chosen. I think it’s awful. She says she really values my opinion
I don’t know if I can take falling out at the moment so aibu to lie and say it’s lovely but at the same time in am thinking this poor kid has to live with this name

Maybe say “It wouldn’t be my choice but if you love it then That’s all that matters.”

I like Nellie it’s cute. I think it’s one of those names as the child grows and you get to know her it’ll just be her name and you’ll end up liking it.

My sisters daughter is called Edith and I hated it when she first said but now I love it.

Glad she’s decided to put a full name on the birth cert, my Mother named me a diminutive and I hate it.

All hail honesty! I know someone who just called their baby Blossom Daisy Moon 😐. Imagine trying to get a serious job with that moniker.
