Like with the homework situation, when your friend or sibling tells you a baby name, particularly one that has a really endearing or clever component to it, you can't help but start turning that over in your head. Before long, you have turned it over enough times that you start convincing yourself that you came up with it, that it was your idea all along, kinda like that old "You made this? I made this" meme from the 2010's. While a lot of us would stop there when we snap out of the delusion, the unscrupulous among us won't hesitate to then go and just do whatever suits us best, even if it's the wrong thing to do.
The counterargument you see often is that “they don't even have a child of that gender, and might never have a child of that gender to use that name on" or “you don't know that I wouldn't have come up with that name myself if you hadn't told me.”
If you've ever seen or been a part of a family where you had cousins with the same names, it's probably that someone stood on principle and named their kid a name that had been stolen from them. Either that, or the name is of great importance to the family line. And, yes, I'm calling out all those families out there that name their kids something like Robert the [III, IV, V] as if they're trying to maintain some sort of royal lineage and protect the realm.
Anyways, to avoid getting too long-winded, let's just say that that's exactly what was going on here: Woman divulges her chosen name to her sister, leading to her sister taking a version of that name and then being annoyed when their kids end up with the family-naming version of that pointing Spiderman meme (also below.)
Was she wrong for following through with the name anyways?
