'My pregnant sister wants me to change my baby's name so she can have it – it's not on'

A new mum has shared her annoyance after her younger sister requested she change her baby boy's name so she could use it for her own child.Choosing the perfect name for a new-born can be a challenging task, as it needs to fit them from their cute baby days right through to their professional adult life.For one new mum and her husband, they found the ideal name, Leo, for their little boy who was born three months ago.In a post on Reddit's popular Am I The A**hole forum (AITA), the 31-year-old vented about her pregnant sister's behaviour, stating: "My husband and I had picked out his name, Leo, long before he was born.

It’s a name we both love, and we didn’t share it with anyone until he was born to keep it special between us."However, her 28-year-old sister recently announced she and her husband are expecting their first child, also a boy, and were "thrilled" to reveal they'd chosen the name Leo for him.

The mum said: "When I reminded her that my son’s name is already Leo, she seemed genuinely shocked, saying she "totally forgot" and thought it wouldn’t matter if we shared the name."I gently told her that I wasn’t comfortable with our sons having the exact same name, especially since we’re close and the cousins would likely see each other often."She got upset, saying I was being territorial and that I don’t "own" the name.

My mom is now asking me to consider changing my baby’s name or letting it go, so my sister can use it too."The mum said she feels "frustrated" by her sister and mother’s reactions because she and her husband "carefully picked" the name, and now she’s feeling pressured and as though she's "causing family drama" over it.
