Mum has baby name regret – after changing her seven-month-old daughter’s name THREE times
Sophie Cachia, 26, from Melbourne, Australia, shared her naming woes on Instagram
A MUM-of-two has admitted to suffering from baby name regret – after changing her daughter’s name three times.
Sophie Cachia, 26, from Melbourne, Australia, took to Instagram and revealed picking a name for her seven-month-old daughter has not been easy.
Sophie, who blogs at The Young Mummy, moaned: “I totally f***ed the whole thing up and now my experience with naming a girl is one gigantic clusterf*** of f***ups.”
Sophie, who also has son Bobby with partner Jaryd, had planned to name her youngster after actress Audrey Hepburn.
“Funnily enough, I had a girl and Audrey was never in the equation this time,” she wrote.
“Betty was, then that was wrong. Missy lasted 48 hours, and then she ended Florence Margaret.
“But Margaret was only supposed to be the middle name if she was called Betty, and Florence was always supposed to be Florence Gigi after Jaryd’s sister.
“So now legally she’s Florence Margaret but we call her Florence Gigi (Especially now since she’s her Aunty Gigi’s mini-twin!) So yeah... basically I suck at naming girls.”
Sophie’s post has attracted more than 3,600 likes since it was shared on July 18, 2017.
Many social media users agreed that naming girls can be tricky.
“Naming girls is HARD!! It took my husband and I 6 years to agree on a girl's name (thankfully the first 2 kids ended up being boys!) I ended up finding a name I love for my new baby girl but s**t don't ask me to do it again,” commented one.
While another added: “We were convinced we were having a boy first time around and our poor little girl didn’t have a name for three weeks.”
“We knew our second was a girl from 12 weeks... she still didn’t have a name for nearly three weeks. Naming girls is hard,” one parent said.
In December, Sophie had the internet in stitches after sharing a seemingly innocent snap with her son.
In May, she was praised by fellow mums for revealing how she wet herself while stuck in traffic.
