Baby names are a hot topic these days. Names keep on getting weirder and weirder. Soon enough there will be no more Craigs, Sarahs, or Emilies around. Names keep getting more and more spellings made to them, people are naming their kids after obscure objects, and every name seems to end in -eigh now. It is kind of crazy how baby names have changed in such a relatively short amount of time. So what would you do if someone you knew was planning on naming their kid something insane?

This Reddit user happened to be in that situation. At a family supper, their sister announced her unborn baby's name and it was weird, to put it nicely. In response to this, the user laughed and questioned their sister's choice of name. This reaction upset everyone at the table and some drastic measures were taken. Now the user is wondering whether they are in the wrong.

Other users had a lot to say about this interaction. Do you think what the user did was wrong? Decide for yourself with the story and comments below.
