'My little sister hates my planned baby name - I’m heartbroken'

One woman was left heartbroken after she revealed her chosen baby name to her younger sister. Her sister wasn’t on her using it, and she had her reasons why.

Taking to the social media platform Reddit , the upset mother-to-be detailed her story. She said: “I know, I know. Never tell anyone your baby name. But I guess I believed I'd be the exception.

“My husband 28m and I 28f hadn't found a name either of us really liked, for our baby girl due in December, but we both fell in LOVE with the name Evelyn (nickname Evvy).

“And I made the mistake of excitedly telling my younger sister 21f who said, in full seriousness, that I'm not allowed to name her that because she was supposed to be named Evelyn.

“She's single and not planning on kids for a long time, and who's to say she’d even have girls.

“I'm pretty heartbroken myself tbh and I don't know where to go from here."

She updated readers with a bit more information.

“Edit: I thought I had included in the original that she says she wanted the name Evelyn for her future kids since she wasn't named it. But that's news to me because as far as she'd told me she wasn't really interested in having kids.”

Reddit users left their comments on the situation.

One social media user said: “Use it. Don’t pander to spoilt behavior.”

Someone else chimed in: “Is a beautiful name. Use it!!! She says she was supposed to named Evelyn but she is not. So I don’t see the issue. She can move on.”

Another person wrote: “There's not much to be heartbroken about here. She said she was going to be named Evelyn but she wasn't.... So you do what you want.”

And an additional individual said: “Use the name! She can’t lay claim on a name like that when kids are nowhere in her near future. Especially if this is the first you’re hearing of it! Honestly, it sounds like she’s being a bratty 21y/o. She’ll get over it.”
