‘At the three month mark, my wife says she feels weird about the name because: ‘It’s too common, it doesn’t feel right, it seems like the wrong name,’’ he explains

Picking a second name, the family continues on until at 18 months mum finds a third name that she thinks is even better than the first two.

The dad decided not to reveal the names for the sake of his family’s privacy.

Those who read his story were quick to reply.

‘She’s going to confuse the hell out of her own daughter if she starts calling her by a new name,’ one Reddit user wrote.

Babies are thought to start identifying with their names from between 5 and 7 months, leading some people to worry for the little girl who could become frustrated. It’s also confusing for friends and relatives.

Hopefully mum makes up her mind soon!
