Husband's Attempt to Prove a Point to Pregnant Wife Ends in Sister-In-Law's Name Being Dragged into 'Ugly Name' Debacle

Selecting a name for your child—or, more correctly, putting up with the long and tiresome process—is a difficult task. Political correctness sometimes has to be set aside due to the immense pressure to please your partner, your unborn child, every member of your family, and the people closest to you.

The story below is an account of a frustrated brother. The original poster (OP) felt forced into a disagreement that wasn't really about him. While waiting for their first child to be born, OP's brother and his wife are talking about possible names for the newborn. While it is recognized that this is a challenging practice, each participant experiences stress and fulfillment to differing degrees. Thus, matters worsened when the brother chose to criticize OP's wife for having an 'original' name and possibly even detesting it.

That being said, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning how things turned out moving forward!  And don't forget to read the story of the daughter-in-law who, upon discovering that her in-laws are going to move into the house next door, turns to Reddit for comfort!
