Today, my husband and I were talking about names for our expectant child. I told him since I named our daughter he could name our son. He's decided on a name from 'God of War'. My son is going to be named after a make-believe cartoon character - Kratos. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boyfriend has had name ideas for his future son and daughter even before I met him, but so have I. He disregards my ideas and suggestions, and is hell bent on giving our kids names because he likes "the way they sound." 'Hippopotamus' sounds good, but who’d name their kids that? FML
Today, my husband and I agreed that he would name our first born and I would name our second. He's dead-set on naming our child "Raindropp" no matter whether it's a boy or girl. FML
Today, me and my husband are having our first big marital argument. Our baby still doesn’t have a name, all because I want to call her a normal name and he wants to call her some obscure name from an anime he really likes. I’ve never seen him this stubborn about anything this stupid. FML
Today, I found out that my wife named our son after her ex boyfriend. FML
Today, I found out my wife named our son after her ex-lover. FML
Today, I learned that I'm expecting twins. A boy and a girl. My husband, upon finding out about this, immediately suggested that we give them Star Wars names. But not Luke and Leia. Oh no. He wants to name them Darth and Vayda. And he is absolutely serious about this. FML
Today, I heard my brother and sister-in-law discussing whether they should name my soon-to-be-born niece Annabelle or Samara. My nephews are named Jason, Freddy and Chucky. See the pattern? FML
Today, my father-in-law announced the name of his new son, my husband's half-brother. The first name and last name is the same as our son, who I gave birth to 4 months ago. FML
Today, I found out that my 6-year-old son was named after my wife's "Favorite Uncle" because he might also be the father. FML
Today, I learned that the hardest part of marrying a historian is choosing baby names. His top choices derive from two Roman magistrates, two abbesses, a tenth-century author, and an obscure Greek official. I already let him name our pug, for whom he chose the name "Tertullianus." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"Make-believe cartoon character"?! Whoa whoa whoa, you've gone too far, there. Besides, it's a totally cool name, you must admit.

If I had the name Kratos, I would be cised. That's pretty wicked right there. Maybe you should chill out? Besides, you neglected to mention what YOU named the kid! ...For all you know, he could be JOKING to get your dumb self back for naming YOUR OTHER KID something completely ridiculous!

Kratos is a bad ass name. He also has a career as a bodyguard in the future with a badass name like that

Acctually, Kratos is the name of a Greek god, not of a made up comic book. The game God of War is acctually based on Greek mythology. Do some research before you bad mouth about something you don't know!

Kratos is more than jsut a fictional character in a game. He is part of Greek Mythology

#173 - God of War is a ******* awesome game. You are being very ignorant by saying that anything that's important to a woman should have little input from men. Men can make great decisions too. OP - That is an awesome name. You should keep your promise to your husband, and let him choose the name. I wanted to name my kid Jacen after Han Solo's first son, but the mother of my child vetoed that idea. I still love that name.
