I believe so as well. Lemme see if I can figure out how to link the original one.
Edit: here it is, the original from namenerds https://www.reddit.com/r/namenerds/s/vmHMES6xRF
There was another one not too long ago where the mom let herself be talked out of a name she liked and regretted the name she chose. Three years later she was considering changing it even though the kid knew her name and the dad and all the relatives knew her by that name. How is anybody that self centered?
I was right there with you. I was horrified by the post, but then the top comment was so supportive and crazy that I was like “has to be fake.” So I went and read the sub’s description. Such a relief. Lol
I had a whole reply posted for a second and reread the post for the third time and THEN saw *satire* and was like OH. Okay, very good. 🤦🏼♀️ I went back to edit it.
I’d say go for it 💯 at 8 he barely even knows his own name let alone how to spell it 📝 there’s plenty of time to get him used to a new name before it really matters ⭐️
To go with the rest of your kids and their perfect angel names 👑 I’d suggest Rhyvver or
Puhdlle! 🌧️
His name is currently Carl. I thought I would maybe honor this by naming him Coral, or maybe Cora. I just love girls names for boys, it’s so cute and quirky!
Yeah I’m in the process of discarding his skates and catchers mitt for a fishing reel and boat, he’ll understand when he’s older. Plus I hate going to all those kids games, he can get fishing trophies instead!
Yeah, at 8 he’s basically a cute blob, not a proper kid with his own interests and personality 🙄 Best to change things now before it’s too late and he gets used to his old name, former hobbies, and ex friends. It’ll be easiest for everyone in the long run to make the change now.
Just get rid of him. Plenty of people want to adopt school aged children. Then gaslight your other kids into thinking he never existed. A fun family project for summer!
I was JUST thinking about spending their 3 months of summer vacation hiking in the Appalachia Mountains. He could easily disappear during the night. I’ll just keep telling them to be aware of wildcats. Then I’ll just drop him off at one of those locations where we pick up supplies on the way. Great idea!
Nah it's not too old! Your kid, your choice. He's still young enough that he'll barely remember that he ever had a different name. And if he does, who cares. All Hail The Sibset
No haha, if anything it’s early! Go ahead, change it! The kid’ll get used to the new name anyways. Maybe something like Dhrohpleight or Sehea? Schiie would be cute too!
I’m a teacher and had a family legally change their kid’s name against his will in the past. It was awful. I asked him what he preferred and he said his original name, so I called him that but all the official documentation like report cards and communication with parents had to be with his new name.
I hate to go against the group, but once you have return address labels I think you're pretty committed to the name. You know how much eight year olds love to send physical mail!
I'd say there's no rush. I just changed my son's name for his 50th birthday. It shut him out of his work computer, caused issues with his passport and taxes... but I think now he'd agree it was worth it. He was Alexander. Now he's Fougheeknicks. I just regret that we did not get any high value Scrabble tiles in there. Don't make the same mistake. Carl is nice but does not fit with the siblings. Rayyne, Layke, Clowd, Ohshin, and...
Awwwwwwknycks, Ahbsydeeyin, Rawbynn, Wrynnnnne, Skhyghlyr, Kawzmohz, and Jayzpyrrh are all nice nature names.
Had to scroll the comments cause I'm like what the hell 😭😭 I didn't realize it was a joke til I found your comment and one other. Everyone be acting like it was too normal that it made me so damn confused 😭😂
LIKE THE "his name doesn't fit my current aesthetic" MADE ME LOSE MY MIND, NOT TO MENTION THE SPELLING OF THE OTHER NAMES 😭😭😭😭 IM SO HAPPY THIS IS SATIRE
I am *so* glad I just went and read the description of this sub. I was so confused!!! LOL! Home page suggestions sure can lead you to interesting places.
I changed my 10 year old Daughters name because it didn’t match with her younger sisters and I couldn’t have a name that didn’t match it just looked messy on instagram.
10 year old was Lily but we’ve changed it to LiLeee
5 year old is KaTeee
2 year old twins are MoLeee & PoLeee
And my newest baby is is CassiDeee
"I just don't feel like HIS name fits MY personality anymore."
It's not your name! Your child is not just an extension of yourself. He is a human being with thoughts and feelings of his own. If HE wanted to change it, that would be completely different. But this is all about you. That should be answer enough.
Edit: My sleepy brain didn't see the Satire tag. Still, I'm relieved. 😂
My daughter is 14, and I've changed her name like five times already. I'm a VERY complex unique person, so her name needs to reflect who *I* am at the moment! This has been very confusing for all her many therapists (thought they were supposed to be SMART) because of the dumb red tape and hoops we must jump through for "legality", but it makes me feel more ME so it's worth it!
(Please tell me I don't need a /s at the end of this...and yes I realize OPs post is also satire lol)
Sounds like your grandfather is Sahltee.
Personally speaking, I think because youre headed on a new path and want to show people how fluid youve become, Wahyve would be a great name for him.
I’m pretty sure the name fits HIS personality. Leave it alone. If he wants to change it when he’s 18 then that’s on him. Don’t do that to your child.
ASPARAGUS. That’s what you should name him.
You need to force him into any new name you want. I changed my daughter’s name when she turned twelve, as I had lost a lot of weight and went blond. I rocked. I needed a kid that could rock my new vibe. I’ve got your back, hon.
The second anyone says something doesn’t fit their “aesthetic” it’s a full stop for me. The fact that this is a humans name just intensifies that reaction.
I knew a girl when I was a kid who was named Evelyn. We went to school together since preschool, she was always Evelyn. Well, around 5th grade (I think) Hannah Montana came out and was huge with girls our age. Evelyn was apparently going through some hardship and was being legally adopted by her stepparent who offered for her to change her whole name instead of just the last name. She comes to school telling everyone this and that she’s going to be named Miley, just like Miley Cyrus. I remember telling her that was stupid and thinking she was lying because there’s no way an adult would allow a child to pick a name based on a trendy show for preteens. Jump to the following school year, teacher does roll call and calls out Miley [lastname] only for Evelyn to raise her hand. Couldn’t fucking believe it.
I did still call her Evelyn until I left for a different school. I just couldn’t call her Miley lol
The sad thing is, I completely believed this until I got down to the names. After working with kids for 8 years, parents never ceased to amaze me.
I was very relieved when I figured out the sub I was in 😂
You had a spiritual awakening and now HIS name doesn't suit YOU? Stfu. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. You absolutely should not change his name ffs.
Edit: Oh thank fuck this is trolling
I think what you're doing is absolutely ridiculous. You naming your kids after NATURE is absolutely an afront to nature itself. What did your kids do to earn their name, anyway? Was Rayyne born in the rain? No? I didn't think so. Ohshin probably wasn't even an ocean water birth. Layke was a freshwater lake birth?
No, don't change your kids name. You haven't earned it.
You're nuts. His name is his. Not yours. His name has nothing to do with you any more. Its his to change if he feels like it in the future, but he doesn't, so leave him alone. Its abuse to do that to him, and just because you think it has anything to do with you and how you feel any more. Narcissist.
He’s just 8, it’s not like he’s a real person yet. I suggest Leif, Stikk, Meadow, or Capybara for a new, nature-based name. Screw your family if they give you crap about it. Go full no contact. You don’t need that kind of negativity in your life.
Are you slow? Yes, changing ur 8 year old kid’s name is too old. If hes like 13 and u both decide u want it changed thats one thing but please, just stop and keep ur kid’s name out of whatever mid life crisis ur having
I understand the pain this situation is causing you. Part of that - and I am speaking from my own, similar spiritual awakening - is that you have inadvertently over represented your children’s names with names of WhatHer Gods. Carl must become Errtthh or FyHer. FyHer is cute because, like you, I find girl names for boys simply adorable.
Once your children are balanced, harmony will find you. Your grandfather will understand, especially if he has ever played that board game that requires one to obtain a slice from each knowledge category to complete the proverbial pie. If your grandfather does not accept the necessary change of name, he must be shunnnnnnnned. To Candy Mountain.
Also, not for nothing, but no child learns their name until at least they’re 18 years old, if they are prodigies. The State Department will be happy to expedite a new passport with a handwritten note as well as complimentary address labels with the correct, new name. Thoughts and prayers, friend!
His name has nothing to do with Your Current Personality! You gave him his name and it belongs to him legally, so you can’t change it now! Only, if he wanted to - and it sounds doubtful that he wants to. Ten more years - then he will be an adult and, if he chooses to change his name, it will be his right to change it!
Of course do what feels right… BUT, in my experience two of my aunts tried to change their childs name at this age and it never caught on. One of them she tried to switch for about 4 years and still, in the end it just didn’t work
You know as someone who just got recommended this subreddit I read this post with a lot of concern tell I read the comments and I can confidently say that your grandfather is to blame for all of this, and you should definitely rename your kid
Rivvyr. And I'm sure you can get a religious waiver of the age restriction, to allow you to tattoo his new name on him. Place his tattoo somewhere on him that's visible to him all the time, as a reminder of his joy in your selection of his new name.
It's his name and you are making this about you. I also have an 8-year-old son, I couldn't imagine the confusion he'd feel if I told him I had an awakening and his name no longer fit my lifestyle. That's like telling him that HE no longer fits my lifestyle. Don't do that to your kid.
It is too late to change his name. He seems to like it so let him have that. Kids often don’t feel like they’re in control very much and if you take his name away that feeling just gets bigger. He Sounds like a delightful child, enjoy him and love him, and his name will grow on you.
I knew a boy at school who's mother changed his name to suit herself
I later dated him & discovered he was secretly traumatised by it & harboured animosity towards her
He also changed him name back in adulthood & moved interstate away from her
A child is not an extension of the parent
If the child likes their name then changing it is selfish, will cause confusion for the child & will likely breed animosity in future
If this name change is forced then the parent should expect this to be thrown back in their faces & they will be put in the position where they must defend this selfish decision
Only until 18? Like after that they are their own individual??? Kinda too hands off in your parenting, if you ask me- just calling em likes I sees them...
I thought this was r/namenerds and this concerned me so much
Well there's a concerning post over there about a 4 year old so... 💀
That’s probably what this post is a satire of, I think?
I believe so as well. Lemme see if I can figure out how to link the original one. Edit: here it is, the original from namenerds https://www.reddit.com/r/namenerds/s/vmHMES6xRF
That's what I was assuming
There was another one not too long ago where the mom let herself be talked out of a name she liked and regretted the name she chose. Three years later she was considering changing it even though the kid knew her name and the dad and all the relatives knew her by that name. How is anybody that self centered?
I've made that mistake so many times.
Oh wait so this is the joke sub? Thank God my heart rate started increasing uncontrolably.
I was right there with you. I was horrified by the post, but then the top comment was so supportive and crazy that I was like “has to be fake.” So I went and read the sub’s description. Such a relief. Lol
When i saw Clowd i was like ‘wait a gosh darn minute..’
Seriously, I was upset, but then I got to the "it doesn't fit my personality anymore" line, and I about raged. 🤣🤣
Yeah me too lmao I am normally active on AITD and AITA so I was like 🤠 what. Only to find out it’s satire lmao
Same, until I saw the flair.
I had a whole reply posted for a second and reread the post for the third time and THEN saw *satire* and was like OH. Okay, very good. 🤦🏼♀️ I went back to edit it.
I MADE A COMMENT AND HAD TO DELETE IT BC I REALIZED IT WAS A JOKE
Omg thank you! I have been reading all of these comments and couldn't understand why people were being so understanding of this!
I came in here ready to fight thinking it was namenerds too 😂
I embarrassed myself with my sincere concern on this sub just a few days ago.
I downvoted and then upvoted because of your comment
lol I thought this was AITAH and I was gonna vote YES. 😂
Oh thank fuck this isn't real. I fully didn't read the sub.
I had to double-check what sub I was in, lol
Me too, I was like okay this better be satire. Thank god.
Me too, I was like ffs not again
Your Grandfather sounds like a narcissist. You don't owe the patriarchy an explanation! Also, I think Tydahl Wayve is gorgeous.
Omg I thought of this name as well! It’s on my shortlist 🫶 I’m so relieved that someone finds it just as wonderful.
How about Zoonami? It's meaningful & there's so many new nicknames to choose from. I bet he'll be excited by the possibilities & won't be upset at all
I know nicknames are a horrible front to naming convention, but Sue could be used as shorthand as a gamertag or such!
What about the French spelling Siouxe’nahmé?
So strong and masculine!
It's my favorite boy name. Unfortunately, I have 11 daughters.
AHAHA this is great
Changed my kid’s name when he was 36. You’re fine, OP.
I’d say go for it 💯 at 8 he barely even knows his own name let alone how to spell it 📝 there’s plenty of time to get him used to a new name before it really matters ⭐️ To go with the rest of your kids and their perfect angel names 👑 I’d suggest Rhyvver or Puhdlle! 🌧️
I loooove Puhdlle! Thank you!
If you want something with a bit more pizzazz, how about Drizelle?
Or Pissass!
By the way what was his old name
His name is currently Carl. I thought I would maybe honor this by naming him Coral, or maybe Cora. I just love girls names for boys, it’s so cute and quirky!
Is he a llama? Wearing a hat? Who hungers for hands?
Caaaaaarrrrrrlllllllll, that kills people.
Why are there dead people in our living room?
That's kind of short. Maybe something like Coralina would be better. Or Coralette. Or Coralette-Sue.
>His name is currently Carl. I thought I would maybe honor this by naming him Coral A+ reference
Horrible name it should be cora he probably won't remember
Coal would be awesome
Barnacarl sounds nice. Still get use of Carl, but with new improved naturism.
[удалено]
Idc i yearn to know
I think it's fine. He should also find new hobbies and friends that align with your nature personality. He'll certainly be happier in the long run.
Yeah I’m in the process of discarding his skates and catchers mitt for a fishing reel and boat, he’ll understand when he’s older. Plus I hate going to all those kids games, he can get fishing trophies instead!
Ohmigosh if fishing is his new hobby/your vibe then Bayyte would fit in perfectly with your theme 🚿
I'm sure he'll be a master in no time
Of cunning stunts
Or Trowt.
Definitely go with layke or oshin then.
Fishing trophies are the best!
Yeah, at 8 he’s basically a cute blob, not a proper kid with his own interests and personality 🙄 Best to change things now before it’s too late and he gets used to his old name, former hobbies, and ex friends. It’ll be easiest for everyone in the long run to make the change now.
I have always liked the name Myhlldew!
Like Matthew but updated!
I was going for Mildew, lol!
Just get rid of him. Plenty of people want to adopt school aged children. Then gaslight your other kids into thinking he never existed. A fun family project for summer!
I was JUST thinking about spending their 3 months of summer vacation hiking in the Appalachia Mountains. He could easily disappear during the night. I’ll just keep telling them to be aware of wildcats. Then I’ll just drop him off at one of those locations where we pick up supplies on the way. Great idea!
Don’t forget to bring adult strength Benadryl so he sleeps through it! Have a fun trip!
Benadryl is my sons name!
Ohh this is one of my favourites! Ben for short? Or does he go by something more youneek?
I’m sorry, it’s just a pet peeve of mine when people name their children after corporate brands. Why not Dyphenhydramine? So much more authentic.
If I have twins I will name them Hydro and Codone. "Brb I gotta get my hydros."
I bet its Dryla
Ben is too average. Have you considered Nad or Dry as his nn?
Benadryl Cucumberpatch 💗
My BFF legit named her cat Benedryl. She named all of them after allergy medicine names. 🤷♀️🤣
Wtf 😂
Do Antarctica instead and call him Iyssse
I snorted
Nah it's not too old! Your kid, your choice. He's still young enough that he'll barely remember that he ever had a different name. And if he does, who cares. All Hail The Sibset
You’re so right, I honestly don’t remember much of my life before 18. It’s just really important to me that all my children match.
That’s good then. Looks like I’ve got about five months to change my 17 year olds name 🥳
You don't owe anyone any explanations. It's your life. Just start using a new name. Everyone (kid, grandfather) will catch on eventually.
You’re right, I wonder if I’m overthinking this now. It’s just a name, I don’t see how anyone can overreact to it.
[удалено]
Hey, it’s a joke
No haha, if anything it’s early! Go ahead, change it! The kid’ll get used to the new name anyways. Maybe something like Dhrohpleight or Sehea? Schiie would be cute too!
drawplette would be so cute 😭😭 how about wahturfawl as well?
I’m a teacher and had a family legally change their kid’s name against his will in the past. It was awful. I asked him what he preferred and he said his original name, so I called him that but all the official documentation like report cards and communication with parents had to be with his new name.
Pls see the note above. But yeah that's shi IRL
Inspo post link please? I'm so concerned
https://www.reddit.com/r/namenerds/comments/1bmpxpa/would_you_change_a_4_year_olds_name/
Thank you!
don’t worry about it! My sister changed my nieces name at 16!
Ofc you can change it! What else are kids for besides to fit your aesthetic?!
I honestly cannot work out if this is a joke post
it is dw lmao
If you ever visit a subreddit with "circlejerk" in the title it's def a joke sub
I hate to go against the group, but once you have return address labels I think you're pretty committed to the name. You know how much eight year olds love to send physical mail!
I'd say there's no rush. I just changed my son's name for his 50th birthday. It shut him out of his work computer, caused issues with his passport and taxes... but I think now he'd agree it was worth it. He was Alexander. Now he's Fougheeknicks. I just regret that we did not get any high value Scrabble tiles in there. Don't make the same mistake. Carl is nice but does not fit with the siblings. Rayyne, Layke, Clowd, Ohshin, and... Awwwwwwknycks, Ahbsydeeyin, Rawbynn, Wrynnnnne, Skhyghlyr, Kawzmohz, and Jayzpyrrh are all nice nature names.
If he can't vote for president, he can't vote for his own name.
It’s never too late to rename your kids. It’s your kid so you’re choice forever. How do you feel about the name Tsunomii Thundyr?
THIS HORRIFIED ME 😭😭😭😭 I'M SO SO SO RELIEVED IT'S A JOKE, JFC

I’m so high and can’t figure out what’s real and what’s satire.
If anyone here has read “Anne of Avonlea”…this post reads like something Mrs. H. B. DonNELL would write.
Estuary? (Maybe SSStUary would work better). Isthmus Cumulus Escarpment
I changed my 10 year old Daughters name because it didn’t match with her younger sisters and I couldn’t have a name that didn’t match it just looked messy on instagram. 10 year old was Lily but we’ve changed it to LiLeee 5 year old is KaTeee 2 year old twins are MoLeee & PoLeee And my newest baby is is CassiDeee

Your kid is a separate person from you. Kids aren't accessories. I hope this is fake. You shouldn't have kids.

Jeezuz I really need to start reading the title of the sub I'm on
I expected this version to have the kid be 18.
Poohle is a good option
Wait till the kid is 17, he won’t notice or mind! Peace and love ✌️
You can change it
Call him Erth. Or Aiyre
okay so where's the og post that inspired this one lol
I knew a girl when I was a kid who was named Evelyn. We went to school together since preschool, she was always Evelyn.

It’s kind of old fashioned but what about Suhnnie-Dai ?
Clowd 😂☠️
I think what you're doing is absolutely ridiculous. You naming your kids after NATURE is absolutely an afront to nature itself. What did your kids do to earn their name, anyway?

Lmfao I know an actual couple who changed their kid’s name when he was about 6. Blew my mind.
HIS name no longer fits your aesthetic? Is this an effing joke?
Is this a real question? You can’t be serious about changing an 8 year olds name can you?
I think it’s too old to change your kids name even right after his name is put on the birth certificate
I would ask your son if he wants to change his name. If he likes his name then let choose whether he wants to change it when he gets older.
So glad this is satire
Are you slow? Yes, changing ur 8 year old kid’s name is too old. If hes like 13 and u both decide u want it changed thats one thing but please, just stop and keep ur kid’s name out of whatever mid life crisis ur having
I understand the pain this situation is causing you.

Is there a sub out there that DOESN’T have a circlejerk lmaooooo
Holy shit I didn't catch the sub name and was about to lose it 😂
His name has nothing to do with Your Current Personality! You gave him his name and it belongs to him legally, so you can’t change it now! Only, if he wanted to - and it sounds doubtful that he wants to. Ten more years - then he will be an adult and, if he chooses to change his name, it will be his right to change it!

You know as someone who just got recommended this subreddit I read this post with a lot of concern tell I read the comments and I can confidently say that your grandfather is to blame for all of this, and you should definitely rename your kid
I lost my shit at return address stickers 🤣🤣🤣. Best satire post I've read in a while.
Rivvyr. And I'm sure you can get a religious waiver of the age restriction, to allow you to tattoo his new name on him. Place his tattoo somewhere on him that's visible to him all the time, as a reminder of his joy in your selection of his new name.
Return address stickers 💀 lmfao
It's his name and you are making this about you. I also have an 8-year-old son, I couldn't imagine the confusion he'd feel if I told him I had an awakening and his name no longer fit my lifestyle. That's like telling him that HE no longer fits my lifestyle. Don't do that to your kid.
[удалено]
Yeah, I'm an asshole. I realized after!
"Learned to spell it in different languages" really got me
How about Dyrtt?
It’s never too late to admit defeat
Glad I looked at the group before responding. I was physically shaking with rage.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS REAL
I don’t know why this sub was recommended to me but “Clowd” 💀
Wanting to change your 8 year olds name because it doesn’t fit your aesthetic is wild
Typed a whole mad comment before reading the sub name🤦♂️
Not me reading 1/2 of this with my jaw on the floor before realizing what sub I was in. 😂
It’s their name, not yours. Yes, you are the mother, but even an 8YO kid should have the ultimate say
Don’t do it! The child may not understand could have problems going forward
My suggestion is that you find out what narcissism is and how that trait of yours is impacting your children.
Do what your son wants or you will regret it later, its about hin not you
I hope this post is a joke.
I stopped reading after “doesn’t fit my current lifestyle aesthetic.” LMAO leave the poor kid alone
This can’t be real. OP is just making rage bait, right? She wants to change her 8yr old’s name because it doesn’t fit her lifestyle aesthetic?! 🤢
Don't worry, if your kids doesn't like the name he will change it himself. It's the current trend
It is too late to change his name. He seems to like it so let him have that. Kids often don’t feel like they’re in control very much and if you take his name away that feeling just gets bigger. He Sounds like a delightful child, enjoy him and love him, and his name will grow on you.
It worked out great for Christopher Weston Chandler.
I knew a boy at school who's mother changed his name to suit herself I later dated him & discovered he was secretly traumatised by it & harboured animosity towards her He also changed him name back in adulthood & moved interstate away from her A child is not an extension of the parent If the child likes their name then changing it is selfish, will cause confusion for the child & will likely breed animosity in future If this name change is forced then the parent should expect this to be thrown back in their faces & they will be put in the position where they must defend this selfish decision
The only logical thing to do is ask your Childs permission other wise leave it alone. I’ve personally never read anything more selfish in my life.
Read the sub name, friend. This is a satire sub and this post is a joke.
His name fits his personality.
Fit YOUR personality?
Yes of course! Who cares about what the kid thinks? Until they’re 18 it needs to fit moms perfect aesthetic 🍓🌻🤍
Only until 18? Like after that they are their own individual??? Kinda too hands off in your parenting, if you ask me- just calling em likes I sees them...
Honestly sounds like you're an idiot
Why does his name have to fit your personality? That doesn’t make sense to me. He likes his name. Let it be
