A new mum has sparked a family feud over her baby name choice.
The woman shared a post on Reddit describing the situation and asking for advice.
The mum said her husband had a “traditional family name” they loved and ever since they started dating and discussing their future, they agreed that their son would have that name.

The name in question is the traditional Irish moniker, ‘Oisín’.
“My husband is Irish and not in the Boston, my great great, great grandfather came over in the 1800s kind of way. But in the born in Galway kind of way,” the woman said.
Tensions arose after her brother and sister-in-law found out the name she had chosen and used it, even though she had already told them beforehand that she would be using it.
“My brother and his wife have as much right to name their child whatever they want. I do not own the name. I have no right to dictate to my brother what he names his kid,” she explained.
“However, neither my family nor my sister-in-law have any other connection to Ireland.”
The woman’s sister-in-law became pregnant about the same time she did and her son was born two months after theirs.
“She got pregnant right around when I did, and her son was born two months before ours. They named him ‘Oisín Miguel’,” she said.
“I didn’t get upset or anything,” she added.
“But she has flipped out that two cousins will have the same name. She is nuts because our family is Hispanic, and half of our cousins are named ‘Carlos’ or ‘Camilla’.”
The woman’s sister-in-law is now “trying to insist that the couple call him by his middle name or change his name”.
“I told her to p*** off,” said the woman.
“My mum is staying neutral, but she was very surprised that my brother gave his son an Irish name which he knew I was planning on using. She expected him to name him for our late father.”
The woman finished her post by saying that her “husband’s family thinks the whole thing is hilarious, my family thinks my sister-in-law is a ‘weirdo,’ and she thinks I’m an a**hole for copying her”.
The woman’s post garnered more than 1000 comments and people were quick to side with the new mum.
“Your husband’s family is right. So is your family. She doesn’t own the name,” said one.
“Not the a**hole. You’re right, anyone can use a name,” added a second.
“You’re not the a**hole, sounds like someone in the family likes to manufacture drama,” said a third.
“Honestly, it sounds like your sister-in-law is overreacting. You had that name picked out long before she got pregnant, and it’s not like you’re trying to steal her son’s identity,” added another.
