Mother Cancels Baby Shower After A Friend Makes Fun Of Her Son's Name
If you're going to choose a name that is out there—like, really, really out there—then you need to be willing to deal with a few raised eyebrows.
One baby name was all it took to turn a family celebration into a full-blown meltdown. A mother expecting her first child thought she was sharing a joyful milestone, but her choice of name quickly became the center of attention for all the wrong reasons.
The baby shower invite list included friends and relatives who apparently had plenty to say about the unusual name she picked: Squire Sebastian Senator. Instead of letting the comments slide, she canceled the event and accused everyone of judging her unborn son.
Now the post has people arguing over whether she was defending her child or making a scene. Read on.
The mother announced the shower was canceled in what can only be described as an aggressive Facebook rant.
So, let's break this down... and yes, you read that right, the baby's name is Squire Sebastian Senator.
Dear Members of the Squire Sebastian Senator Baby Shower,I have a really important announcement to make. It brings me pain to have to tell you this, but I am canceling the event. I will text you soon if you’re invited to my smaller, more inclusive party. At least here, no one will judge me.
Ouch... but okay, pretty sure they were judging you and not your baby. Just saying.
Why? Why am I doing this?Because you all have been talking trash about my unborn baby. AN UNBORN CHILD. How can you judge an unborn child?? What is wrong with you??
Okay... but are you drunk now?
To say this frankly, my friends and family have treated me like total trash. They’ve spread rumors and lies about my child. No, I am not crazy. No, I am not mentally unstable. No, I was not drunk when I named my child.
True.
His name is Squire Sebastian Senator.That is that. You cannot force me to change his name.
Hmm
This is the name I was meant to give him.
Not allowed to have a nickname? C'mon!
No, that is not his full name. 'Squire Sebastian Senator' is only his first name. This is how it will be. He will not be allowed to have a nickname; he is to be called by his full and complete first name.
Also, the “dream venue” betrayal is real, just like the friend who stole her spot and now she’s keeping her baby’s name secret.
Ohh... makes sense.
I never knew this family could be so judgmental. We come from a long-lasting family of both squires and senators. If you look back in our family tree, the survival of this clan is literally rooted in squiredom.
Fair enough.
We are all related to senators too. This name conveys power. It conveys wealth. It conveys success.
Geez, calm down lady.
My baby’s name WILL be a revolution. It will push people to question everything. Why name your baby boring and overused names like Joshua, Brian, Sam, Nick, Mark, Bella, Marina, etc.… when you can name them something special?
Let's hope so.
Squire Sebastian Senator will live a powerful, wholesome life. His confidence will not diminish simply because his name is out of the ordinary. Instead, he will be extraordinary.
Okay then.
F- you all, fake-ass family. You won’t get to be part of my baby’s life all because you had to judge him.
So there you have it. People had mixed reactions to the post when it was shared online. Here are a few of the comments.
Good luck, Squire Sebastian Senator! We sure do hope you have an amazing life!
