A mum has confused people with not only her choice of name for her baby but also the way she insists it should be pronounced – sparking warnings that it could cause her child issues
A mum has stunned other parents by choosing a verb for her baby’s name – but insists it is not pronounced how you think.
Dividing opinion online, the mum joined the growing number of new parents looking to pick an unconventional moniker for their child to make them stand out – but she’s really stirred things up.
A Reddit user took to the online platform to share a baby name post they had seen that had left them completely dumbfounded.
They wrote: “The worst one I’ve seen this week. The pronunciation is even worse,” and shared an image from social media, of a woman who had just had a baby.
Over the photo, it read: “We welcomed a beautiful little girl into this world named Imagine in 2018. (Em-ah-jen).”
The post seemingly sought to clarify that the name was to oddly be pronounced Em-ah-jen, as opposed to the conventional pronunciation of the verb, ‘imagine’.
