Social media users hit out at "cruel" parents over their newborn son's name, and the concern feels completely understandable.

Naming a child is a huge task, as this person will have to carry it with them for the rest of their life - unless they decide on changing it of course.

There are certain names that play it safe but lack originality, and there are some unique names that are so baffling that it makes you wonder how the parents thought of it.

That's what a couple found out when their son's name was shared on Reddit and many viewers couldn't quite believe what they were seeing.

The user posted an image of the child, whose identity was blurred, with the name that the parents had written underneath and it's certainly bizarre.

"Little Baby Fart, such a mischief-maker," the original poster said, and the image revealed that the newborn baby was called Pheart.

It's easy to understand the concern of those who viewed the post, as we probably all read the name in the same way.

One reader said: "I genuinely cannot figure out how this came to pass," and a second added: "I audibly laughed. Id be unable to call this baby fart without dying laughing. Think of teachers, nurses etc."

Though others did attempt to see reason, with one person saying: "Maybe its pronounced "furt" or "fay-art" or even like "fair-t"... horrible spelling for any of those pronunciations." Others added: "That is so cruel. So cruel."

Another who was attempting to understand the parent's mindset said: "The Parents, probably-it’s pronounced Heart. The p is silent," to which a user jokingly responded: "Silent, but deadly."

Another agreed that the P might be silent by saying: "Maybe intended to be one of those 'the P is silent' words, like pneumonia or pterodactyl, and the parents not knowing that PH usually is read as F."

Some others debated whether English was the first language of the new parents and whether this unfortunate mishap may have lasting consequences on the child.

We certainly hope that this is all a big misunderstanding and that name isn't pronounced "fart" otherwise the child may have a tricky time in school.

A mom-to-be has been labeled "cruel" after her choice of baby name left people questioning whether it was the right thing to do.

Look, it shouldn't be anyone's business other than the parents of a child about what to call it... but that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to have opinions on it.

I've certainly met a few people in my time with questionable names, and while some are unique and beautiful, others can raise a few eyebrows.

One concerned person took to Reddit to ask for advice due to the name of her friend's baby, as they weren't sure whether to say something to the mother.

"[One] year ago Sarah had a very terrible miscarriage late in her pregnancy and gave birth to a stillborn. She had named the baby and been very bravely public about her loss and buried the child with a tombstone with his name: John Jacob II (named after his father)," the Redditor began.

A year later Sarah is throwing a baby shower and she is pregnant again, and thankfully the post notes that she is doing very well.

The post went on: "During the baby shower, she announces the name of her soon to be born son: John Jacob III. The third. Mostly everyone was able to be instantly ecstatic but unfortunately I could not calibrate my reaction quick enough and she noticed. She has been very distant since."

The pair haven't spoken since and a few others texted the Redditor to reveal they were also shocked by the name, and it's left them with a dilemma.

"I will eventually have to talk to my friend and she will 100% bring it up," the post went on. "[Will I be the a**hole] if I told her that naming her son after her stillborn would be a very cruel thing to do to a child?"

People took to the comments to offer their thoughts, as one person said: "This is such a tricky one. Your friend is clearly still grieving her loss, and maybe finding solace in being able to remember her first baby through his brother. This is understandable, and I cannot call her a butt.

"HOWEVER, this is not a good decision on her part. I can just see the toll that being named after a stillborn sibling will take on the coming child. I would be concerned, as I'm sure you are that they will not be able to develop an identity separate from their parents' idea of their older brother."

A second person added: "I can understand grieving, but to use the III like this is just not correct. Never mind how it's related to a stillbirth of someone of the same generation.

I'll say [not the a**hole] if you are able to bring it up gently and know when to walk away without getting upset if Sarah doesn't take it well. you could lose a friendship, so keep that in mind too."

Concerned social media users have slammed a mother after she named her baby after her favorite food.

Choosing a name for your newborn is a difficult task for many, as this person will have to carry it with them for the rest of their life - unless they decide to change it.

We've noticed that in recent years, some parents have opted for unique monikers for their children rather than a common name.

In this case, one particular parent decided that the best way to introduce their newborn daughter to the world was by naming her after their favorite snack.

According to the Daily Mail, a proud grandmother took to Facebook to share a sweet picture of her granddaughter with her older brother, Nicholas.

She shared her joy at the new arrival and reportedly penned under the sweet post: "It's official, my daughter gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Now their family is complete."

The delighted grandparent then told followers that the baby's name was Avacuddo, which seems to be a misspelling of avocado. "Welcome baby Avacuddo. Nicholas now has a  baby sister," she wrote.

The baby was born around August 2019 but the posts showing off her name have only recently gained traction after they were shared on various social media platforms.

One person on Facebook slammed the parent, writing: "The stupidity of some people giving their child a fruits name is only [asking] that your child be bullied, and when it is it will be no one's fault but your own!"

Another angry user blasted: "Absolutely ridiculous. It’s child cruelty, just because the parents want to be 'different,'" while a third criticized: "So stupid do you know how that child will be teased for the rest of his life. Bringing serious issues."

A fourth added: "Parents STOP setting your kids up with your foolishness. This is not cute!"

In an interview with the outlet, Nameberry's CEO Pamela Redmond revealed that parents struggle to pick a name that essentially sets the tone for their child's life because "a name says so much about your personal and family identity".

"A name signals your feelings about your family, your cultural heritage, your style, your desire to fit in or stand out in society," she continued. "And a name is a one-time decision that lasts for your child's entire life - at least unless they decide to change it!"

A man has angered his wife after suggesting that they name their baby after an ex-girlfriend who had sadly passed away.

Deciding what to name a child can take the full nine months as it's a huge decision that the newborn will probably have to carry for their entire life.

Some couples debate whether to find out the gender of their child, and those that do can at least narrow down their search for the best name.

Ideas for names can come from anywhere - including some who name their children after their favorite TV characters - but suggesting the name of an ex-partner seems a bit odd.

This is what one father-to-be proposed when he was suggesting baby names to his partner, and she clearly didn't take too kindly to it, so he asked Reddit for advice.

Posting on the popular Am I The A**hole thread, he said: "I (34M) and my wife (31F) are expecting a child in 12 weeks time. We don't know the sex of the baby but we've started thinking about baby names. A couple of nights ago we were suggesting names.

"I had a girlfriend for around 6 years before meeting my now wife. Unfortunately she passed away and I was absolutely devastated. It's still painful to think about and I always imagined naming a child in her memory. I also just love the name itself (Nancy)."

He went on to explain that his wife felt uneasy about the suggestion, claiming that naming a child after an ex-partner is a "strange" thing to do.

The original poster added a further edit to the post where he explained that he and Nancy split up two years before she passed away, but remained good friends.

The mother-to-be kept bringing it up out of anger and disbelief, prompting the man to ask Reddit for their thoughts, and they were quick to speak their minds.

One person said: "Yeah... YTA [you're the a**hole]. Not how you intended it, but it comes across [as] hey wife you're my second choice, so lets name our kid after what would have been my first choice."

A second person said: "It’s okay to still feel sad, but your wife does not need a daily reminder of your ex girlfriend. I’ll be damned if I grow a baby for nine months just to name it after my husbands ex. You need to show more respect to your wife and ask her to forgive you."

Others suggested that the poster may be grieving the loss of his ex-girlfriend without even realizing it and that it was unfair to project that onto his wife.

The couple has since agreed on the name, and we hope this suggestion didn't cause too much of a rift between them.

A mother has called the father of her child "spineless" after she was left baffled at the choice of name for his new baby.

Parenting can be hard, especially when you're separated and have to co-parent with somebody who may have different ideals.

But on the other hand, co-parenting suits some people perfectly and they take to it naturally, and that's exactly how this bizarre story began.

Taking to the popular Am I The A**hole (AITA) subreddit, a perplexed parent questioned whether she was correct for referring to her daughter's father as "spineless" and his girlfriend as "creepy".

To begin, the OP (original poster) provided some context for the situation: "I ended up falling pregnant with my 10 year old daughter during a drunken hook-up with a friend in my mid 20s. When we found out we decided to keep the child and co-parent while remaining friends. We were never a couple and we didn't want to be one either."

They appeared to co-parent quite successfully, and even when the father of her daughter got into another relationship and was expecting another baby, the OP was supportive.

The plans were for the two children to be friends with each other, and for the families to remain close so the children could have an upbringing with both of their parents.

When the new baby was born, the OP and her daughter traveled to the hospital to meet their new relative, but when they found out the name of the baby, things began to unravel.

"They'd used my daughters name. She (the girlfriend) didn't seem to have any issue with this when she introduced the baby bold as brass. My friend seemed uncomfortable and wouldn't look at me directly," the post read.

She went on: "I told them they were being ridiculous and that they couldn't do this, I then told his girlfriend that I found this frankly creepy and told my friend he was being spineless if he was happy to go along with this.

"He tried to claim our daughter could use a nickname or something but I shut that down immediately asking why it was more reasonable for a girl who has used that name for a decade to [change] her name compared to a baby who had no concept of what a name was yet."

Stating that she felt like the name was chosen maliciously, the poster concluded: "His girlfriend told me I was being a b**** talking to her like that after she just gave birth and asked the nurses to remove me saying I was being disruptive."

Safe to say, the people in the comments of the Reddit threat were not amused.

"From the outside it sure reads like she wants to replace her partner's affection for his first daughter with his new baby. Of course it's creepy," one person wrote.

A second added: "They hid this for a reason. He was embarrassed for a reason. The same FIRST and LAST name is going to cause both those girls a life time of issues, especially with the same father. I usually would have a bit more sympathy for a woman who just gave birth but she seemed deliberately cold and cruel towards your daughter (her step daughter) to have done this."

The two kids being named the same will surely make some confusing scenarios pop up in the future, and it certainly seems bizarre to choose pretty much the only name that's off-limits.
