Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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

baby names
Today, I helped a lady give birth on the train. She was so happy she asked if she could name the baby after me, but as I told her my name she visibly turned her nose up at it, turned to her husband, and suggested naming it after his grandfather instead. FML

Daddy issues
Today, we got our daughter's birth certificate. Turns out my husband thought it would be funny to give her a middle name, which we never discussed, and he picked one to sound funny. Not actually going to tell the internet her name, but it’s as bad as calling a boy Ben Dover. I’m furious. FML

Today, I realized that in French, my name means "penis." This wouldn't be so bad if my dad wasn't fluent in French. FML

Today, I had to yet again tell my mother-in-law that I wasn't going to name my unborn baby "Ermintrude" after her late mother. My husband told me to stop being difficult, and that he agrees that it would be nice. FML
new name
Storrs Mansfield, United States
Today, I told my family that I wanted to change my last name to my future wife's. We want to have the same last name, and we chose hers because she is an only child, while I have three brothers. Half of my family is laughing and calling me "pussy whipped" while the other half won't speak to me. FML

Maybe your wife is missing France and is hoping to move there one day with you and the baby. Your daughter won't have any problem in France with this sweet name.

Poor kid will get beaten up on the playground if you give her a name that means "ass".

In Finland Fanny (also Fanni) is very old and common name. If you live in France (and it's common in there too) not England or USA the name will not be problem, I think..

I am from France and i like this name. Maybe it means something different here but it's a good way to keep her origins showing! My Amerian husband likes this name as well.
