This man came to Reddit to ask people if his reaction was unreasonable or not. While discussing the names the woman expressed her wish of naming her baby after her dead ex-boyfriend. The boyfriend made it clear that it made him feel uncomfortable. He also suggested that it would be better if they chose a different name.

The man was okay if it was the name of a relative she was still close to.

Boyfriend didn’t want his child to know that he is named after another man his mother was in love with. The lady suggested that the baby need not know about the fact. She suggested that they could say that it was the name of a dead friend.

He feels that it is quite messed up to even ask such a thing.

People on the internet have a mixed opinion. Some people said it will be disrespectful to the current boyfriend.

One person commented, “That’s weird, you don’t like that name for obvious reasons, and your girlfriend should respect that. How about picking a name from her family or yours? Who cares about the dead guy’s family.”

Another one said that it seems like an immature request and it would just make her feel good for a few minutes and then it will all fade away.

Some people said that it was no big deal and if it meant so much to the girlfriend, he should go ahead with it.

A person commented, “It’s not like it’s the first name, it’s the middle name. Most people never mention middle names in normal circumstances anyway so does it really matter that it will be after a person that clearly meant a lot to her and her family?”

Another person pointed out that it was his insecurity talking.

Whatever they decide, should make both of them happy and we hope the name of the kid is a decent one because he is the one who is going to live with it for the rest of the life.
