'I want divorce after husband sneakily changed our baby's name to something unforgivable'

Naming a baby isn't always as easy as it sounds - especially when the parents can't seem to agree on a moniker.But one 31-year-old mum is considering divorcing herhusband after he changed their son's name behind her back- and then learning what inspired the last-minute switch.

Taking to Reddit, the anonymous woman said: "My husband, 35, and I had our first child two weeks ago. I thought we were to decide on the name on the day of his birth but apparently my dumb*** husband changed his mind. The name we were going for originally is also the name of my veteran grandfather who passed away a couple years back.

"Yesterday morning the birth certificate came in the mail. I found out my husband didn't actually register the name we had both discussed and agreed on."

She came to learn the name registered on his birth certificate was the exact same as his female boss's surname.

She added: "I initially tried gas lighting myself that the wrong one was shipped but the package had both our full names and phone numbers written on the front sticker so the evidence that this was not an accident was already close to solid.

"Yesterday evening when my husband came home from work I asked him what he named our child in a passive aggressive way and he responded with the original name we decided on.

"I then asked why it said 'the name' on the package and he is saying he doesn't know."

Annoyed, she called the hospital to double check her husband signed this name on their son's birth certificate - and they confirmed this was indeed the case.

She said: "I finally got him to admit it but he didn't give a good reason to why he decided to name our child after his boss who was accused for fraud in the company instead of the name that was supposed to honour my grandfather.

"After five years of being together, I no longer trust him and I am planning to file a divorce in the next few months.

"My younger sister, 26, thinks it's not a big deal and I should let go. Also she compared to when I named my hamster after something funny when I was 21 and she texted me and said that 'Just like that hamster, that baby won't care so get over yourself.'.

Confused, the woman has taken to social media to ask users for their thoughts on the situation - and ask whether she's over or under-reacting.

She added: "I don't know if I should be taking this as seriously as I am now. I am starting to think there is a possible affair going on but maybe I am overreacting and he just really likes the name.

"After I posted the story on my Instagram story, a friend told me that I should make an account on here and ask for opinion."

Commenting on her post, one user said: "Change it. You have 'x' number of days/months to change the baby's name without a court order, but it may cost.

"You are also probably going to have to give notice to your (ex)husband. Check with the Office of Vital Records. Good luck!"

Another user added: "Tell your sister to get extra friendly with that hamster.

"Tell your husband to 'fess up about his love for his sleazy boss. Tell your attorney to file name change papers and then divorce papers ASAP."

A third user said: "Tell him to agree to a legal name change before you file for divorce.

"While also hiring a lawyer, a PI, and filing for divorce. What an a**. I can’t believe that’s even legal? Did he forge your signature?"
