When it comes to naming a baby, the names of exes, disgraced historical figures, and enemies are usually off the list. But one couple struggling to get creative with their daughter's name decided to ignore that unspoken rule.

A woman shared a personal and intimate story of how her brother and his girlfriend took a unique approach to naming their baby girl.

“This situation is very strange,” she wrote. “It’s something I can’t stop thinking about it.”


Her brother and his ex-wife are in the process of divorcing after he cheated on her.

“My brother is still legally married because they have only lived apart for six months, there are 18 months to go before their marriage can be dissolved,” she wrote.

Her brother cheated on his estranged wife and the affair resulted in a pregnancy.

“I don't condone it but my brother was with his girlfriend while he was married and her pregnancy and his wife discovering the affair caused her to leave him,” she wrote.

Now, months later, her niece has arrived but her brother and his girlfriend chose to give their daughter the same name as her brother’s soon-to-be ex-wife.

She claimed that the name is “uncommon.”

“His wife told me once that she's only known of one other person with her name,” the woman wrote.
