    My family is what I would call 'quirky' because they're kinda problematic and using the right term would definitely offend them.

    Recently, my cousin gave birth to a baby girl and she shared photos on her Facebook page. She then sent that Facebook post to our family group chat.

    Her daughter's name is Lylyt Yvyh Yryhl, read as 'Lilith Eva Uriel'. I was laughing my off when I read it and she said she wanted her child to be 'cool and unique'.
  • 06
    I replied 'r/tragedeigh' and she did not understand it until a younger member of the family explained what my response was.
  • 07
    She then told me my name is shittier and my parents aren't creative that's why I have a 'basic ' name (my parents were in the conversation too, btw).

    EDIT: Since people are saying I'm an for responding the way I did: They've been an to me all my life that it no longer occurs to me to be kinder to them. I could have been a bigger commenting it on her Facebook post. by

    • Melopahn1 1d ago There is a girl named Jqlyn at my work. She is part way through getting it legally changed to Jacqueline. The visible disgust when she has to explain that her mother was quirky and had to use her daughter as an accessory to flaunt that is very telling. Most of these poor children seem to grow up resenting their parents

    kaijutegu 1d ago The names properly spelled would get this kid dunked on. Nobody will ever, ever pronounce any of those keysmashes correctly, and she'll probably change her name to something sensible like Susan the day she turns 18.

    thechronicENFP • 1d ago I'm guessing your cousin is a teen mom or is in her early twenties? Not only is she so preoccupied with her kid being "unique" so she can be seen as unique, but she has such an immature response to you criticizing the name

    pick10pickles · 1d ago Little Ivy Yourel is how I read it. Maybe you can give ur cousin a list of ways it will 100% be pronounced and it'll change their minds? Hey, A-bunch-of- Ys, would be the unfortunate nickname
