My sister-in-law has changed her sons name

Posted by Gagsy - September 10th, 2011


Ok so he's only like one month and a bit old but I kinda feel that it's wrong to do that to a kid. I'm not sure of the reasoning why, I imagine she and my brother had an argument over the name, maybe my brother realising that he didn't like the name Harris after all. I can't imagine Amina starting to dislike it as she was adamant on the name since before she conceived and got like bat shit crazy is people pronounced Harris wrong - Like saying 'Arris or Harrison, or even Harry.

Which is the most surprising part as his name is now Harry.

Personally I much prefer the name Harry even if I am now used to Harris, I just really worry about Amina and the babys relationship as I can't imagine her happily calling him Harry now. When my mum asked why all Amina said was "I don't want to talk about it. it makes me angry" so obviously she doesn't want to call her son Harry and I just hope for their sake that she can get over this.

Or go back to Harris. I don't know.

Poor baby.

one month? i dont think the fucker knows whats going on it doesnt matter though i think harris is a much better name than harry

It's not the babys view I'm worried about but his mothers. If she doesn't want to change his name but is then I have worries that it'll affect their relationship, that she won't feel as close to her child.

Mommy using baby to attention whore?

Yeeeaaaahhh ... oooookayyyy ...

That's not actually whats going on here. Keep up please.

Women............

Well I agree somewhat with what you're saying. Women can indeed be terrible. I don't think this is my sister in laws fault. She WANTS to keep the original name. it's my brother who seems to have cause the argument and change that she doesn't like.

i was digging harris.

I had gotten used to it. But Harry is better.

I can jokingly call him Prince Harry when he's old enough. Joy.

Look on the bright side. Now at some random point in his life you can walk up to him and be all "YOU'RE A WIZARD HARRY!" and he can be all like "I'M A WHAT?!"

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT I NEVER REALISED HARRY FUCKING POTTER.

YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY FOR THIS REALIZATION DEAN. THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

call him harris and stir some shit up

Up the Harris.

oh wait sorry it's 'arris isn't it

Just because you Northerners can't even pronounce that doesn't mean you need to mock.

the fact that they say "'arris", a lack of pronounciation of the letter H, down south as well as up north (and I assume they say it down south because you claim people have been calling your nephew it), just goes to show you that you silly southerners can't pronounce the english language any better than us northerners.

Haha you're gay

go away you are so dumb

You just thought it'd be better because of Harry Potter.

That is odd though. Once one settles on a name, you really shouldn't change it AFTER THE BABY IS BORN.

P.S. answer my PM maine >:(

harry n***a

I suppose she could still call him Harris. The name's very similar.
