'I have changed the subject, walked away and hung up on her and it still doesn't stop her': 26-year-old woman's 30-year-old sister won't stop telling her what to name her baby, woman threatens to take space from her

If you were ever part of the fandom life, you know that it can be an all-consuming community, even more so when that fandom is all about dedicating yourself to a fictional world. The media that you've become infatuated with infiltrates your brain. The story you've become immersed in feels like real life. The characters you've fallen in love with feel like family. You make connections with your story and the characters, and sometimes you'll create new theories between characters just because they're beloved to you.

Some people take these obsessions and make amazing things from them. Fan fictions that are thousands of words long fill the internet, and fan art makes its way through the ranks of the fandom. These works could enrichen the story in ways the original creator could never even dream of, or could even reach the creator and influence them to change the story completely. Where things get tricky is when you let this fascination affect your day-to-day functionality. One woman had a problem with this when her sister insisted that she name her newborn children after characters from Bridgerton. When the sister would not let it go, this woman had to take drastic measures.
