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

It may seem like a cruel name but it is what it is...it's a name it's not too common...and hey of she doesn't like it she can go by her middle name...

Not all people have middle names. I don't.

That was my grandmother's name. She hated it. She always went by Fan.

At least she didn't choose the name Gretchen

Is this a reference I'm not getting? I think Gretchen is quite sweet.

20- I don't think Gretchen's father, the inventor of the Toaster Strudel, would be too pleased to hear about this....

She's gonna be popular in Highschool. Give your wife an example of how this could go wrong. "All the boys are gonnna want in on your Fanny"

I am French and I didn't even know the name Fanny has a bad meaning (and probably it's the same thing for your wife!)... thank you to inform me haha.

Tell her to stop acting like a "fanny" over and over!

This is exactly why I chose normal names for my kids, Yura Bastard and Fukyoo Bastard.

Interesting....didn't know Bastard was a Japanese name.
