Welcome to the world
Today, I realized my wife named our newborn son after her ex-boyfriend. This wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't the abusive, cheating, womanizer ex that she originally described when we first met. To make things better, he was the one that eventually cut her off, not the other way around. FML

Today, I found out my son’s middle name was named after my wife’s muscled up highschool ex-boyfriend who cheated on her and who she sometimes still brings up. She tells me it’s nothing and still acts like I’m crazy for communicating my worry to her. FML

Maybe it's a coincidence?

I doubt its coincidence.

Coincidence is very possible when it comes to common names.

My mom named my little brother after her pet hamster that she had when she was young. XD

Please tell me your little brother's name is Fluffy

You should teach him the hamster dance.

Well I know I'd be mad if I found that out. I just hope she just liked the name.

it haunts for the rest of your life..my sister accidently named my niece after my ex...

I don't think you should let it "haunt you for the rest of your life." It's just a name and she didn't do it on purpose. You should give the name new meanings and associations so when you hear that name your niece is the first thing that comes to mind, not your ex. Time to move on maybe.

Its possible that OP, not knowing the association, liked the name and agreed.

It could be worse...could have named the kid hashtag or something!

Or Lol. There's a lot of kids in our country with the name Lol.

That made me LOL!

At this point he might rather have the kid named hashtag.

Lol was a genuine nickname (not entirely sure what short for) long before the internet shorthand. I grew up 20 years ago with a local old gentleman whose name, or nickname at least, was Lol.

#64 well that's interesting! I had never heard that before! That's hilarious. Who knew :P

#64: It sounds like his name may have been Lyle, but people use a local dialect, so it sounds like Lol. Just an idea.
