I love my son’s name but I get why people might make fun of him – it’s going to be a challenge to teach him to spell it
A MUM admitted the name she picked out for her son might be a bit of a nightmare for him when he grows up.
Despite loving what she called her tot, she said she understands why others could make fun of him for it.
Posting on Facebook, the mum called herself out for naming her youngest son Jaymasian Justyce, pronounced Jameson Justice.
“I personally love the spelling I came up with for the first name and I call him Jay-J for short most of the time,” she explained.
Even though she chose the name herself, she confessed she feels slightly bad for him when the time comes to learn to spell it.
But because the mum was set on the name from the start of her pregnancy she couldn’t bring herself to change it.
She said: “That’s what I chose his name to be and I wasn’t going to change it because he’s my Jaymasian and I couldn’t imagine him with any other name or spelling.”
“Feel free to make fun of me or ask questions lmao,” she wrote in the post.
Fellow Facebook users flooded the comment section, roasting the mum’s unusual choice.
“You’ve doomed him to an entire life of a misspelled, mispronounced name,” one slammed.
A second wrote: “You wanted to be individual, different or unique and he has to deal with the fall out.”
“Right, if she wants to be unique, she should go get her name changed to something unique… or get a dog,” another agreed.
Someone else thought the name looked like “alphabet soup vomit” instead of the unique option she thought she picked.
“When naming your child if you have to write “pronounced like” followed by the totally normal spelling of the name that you should have used in the first place, you may want to rethink that mess,” commented another.
And someone else wrote: “As a teacher who sees so many bad spellings of names. Just NO.”
