Woman Demands This Dog’s Name Be Changed Because That’s How She Wants To Call Her Newborn, Goes Ballistic After Owner Refuses

ADVERTISEMENT

Most of us want unique names for our kids. Who doesn’t? It’s only natural. Unfortunately, some people have a very warped view of what ‘special’ is and think it has to be completely and utterly unique.
While some people wrack their brains thinking up eccentric-sounding names for their youngsters, others take a more jealous approach. One presumptuous pregnant lady demanded that a woman she knows change her dog’s name because she was planning on giving her (as of yet) unborn baby girl a very similar one. Wow. Unbelievable.

Jennay was astounded when a pregnant woman demanded that she change her dog’s name

A woman named Jennay went on Facebook to ask for advice on how to deal with such an unusual request.
“She says, ‘we want to name her Tillie, but it’s come to my attention you have a dog named Tilly. I’d really appreciate you changing your dog’s name. Obviously, you understand my daughter can’t have the same name as a dog’.
“I’m like WTF,” Jennay wrote on Facebook. According to her, there was no serious reason why she should change her dog’s name because the chances of the baby and the dog meeting together are tiny. Furthermore, Jennay explained how nobody was bound to notice the names were similar.
But the argument didn’t end there. The pregnant woman accused Jennay of not understanding what “a terrible position” she was putting her in because she doesn’t have any kids herself. She also stated that Jennay was “potentially ruining her unborn daughter’s life.” Talk about creating dramas out of thin air. Jennay refused to bow to pressure and turned to the Internet for advice.

People were outraged when they read the pregnant woman’s demands

According to thelabradorsite, the top 5 most popular female puppy names in 2019 are Bella, Molly or Mollie, Coco or Cocoa, Luna, and Lucy; this year, male puppers are mostly called Bailey, Charlie, Maax, Buddy and Cooper.
Meanwhile, Parents writes that in 2019, the most popular baby girl names are Isla, Olivia, Posie, Aurora, and Cora. The most admired baby boy names are Milo, Jasper, Asher, Atticus, and Silas. As you can see, there’s absolutely no overlap between popular puppy and kids’ names. At least this year.

Remember, naming your child and your pet is a big responsibility. You want the name to mean something profound, while at the same time avoiding monikers that are likely to cause teasing. Practical Parenting gives a list of the 10 weirdest names given for babies that should be avoided, such as Diesel, Armani, Chlamydia, Lettuce, Champagne, Sparkle, Magic, Bon-Quisha, Aquamarine-Melody, and Django-Wolf.
Let us know in the comments below what advice you would have given to Jennay and whether or not she did the right thing by refusing to rename her dog.

Internet users shared positive stories about what it means to share a name with a dog

I would have made a public Facebook post congratulating the happy parents-to-be and saying how honored you are that they are naming their child after your fabulous dog. And asked everyone to share it. But I'm petty like this. Also, If I have another girl I want to name her Rosalie, like my beloved pet dove that died 10 years ago.

Ok I cannot hold back any longer. We live 3 blocks from this woman. We share the same lawn maintenance company. People will NOT work for this witch. She is clinically insane and gets these obsessions over little things and will not let go of them. I know of at least two small businesses that have had to get restraining orders after becoming targets of her irrational rage. My partner thinks she is not just nuts, but dangerously insane, and we are talking 'Fatal Attraction' crazy. This woman has no business having children, and my advice to precious Tillie's owner is to keep her far away from this witch. She is the type to snap and hurt a lot of people. She's a text book case of malignant narcissistic personality disorder.

When I decided the name for my daughter I knew one of my work colleagues had a pup with the exact same name, I didn't mind or even dreamed about asking her to change her doggie's name. After my child was born another work colleague used her name to name his pup, and, as the normal not crazy people we are, just laugh about the whole thing.

I had this problem with my youngest daughter, with real babies. My foster mother's friend came to the hospital with her to see my baby after she was admitted to the NICU at 15 days old. The friend was 7 months pregnant, when she asked the baby's name and was told it was Stephanie, she asked me to change the baby's name in front of a room full of relative's and friends because that was the name she picked for her baby if it was a girl, I thought she was joking. When I explained that my daughter had already been registered with that name and we were just waiting on her birth certificate, so changing her name wasn't possible, even if we wanted to, she got pissy with me. When I refused to give in to her demand, she turned around and told people in the waiting room, that my baby was going to die anyway, so I should not be allowed to keep her baby girl name (in spanish), she didn't think my spanish was good enough to understand what she had said to the others.

"If it was a girl"? I would've go full troll and demand her to go to ultrasound ad bring proof to see if it was a girl or not. Aside that, I hope everyone in the waiting room branded her as a nutcase.

You have to be a special kind of spoiled idiot to demand such a thing and then have a tantrum when you're told to go f*ck yourself. I want to slap this woman's mother, quite frankly, for raising such a failure of a human being.

Not to add there might be an animal out there with her name. I would be honored to be named after an animal. This lady should not be worried about a name, but her mental health instead. CRAZY.

We share the world with other people, but also animals, creatures.. There's millions of peopel probably called Tilly in the world, as much as in the animal world to, sharing the a common name doesn't mean being in the same specie and personality. Tilly could be a dog, human, hamster, lizard.. Or even a butterfly, it's simply a nice name. Maybe this lady doesn't like dogs. Or has a hard time deciding for a name anyway.

What a strange demanding person, I already feel for her child. my fur babies always have regular “people” names. I’ve 2 cats, Eris (named after the goddess of strife and discord...it totally suits her) and her sister, Sophia (after the gnostic goddess of wisdom). My chihuahua is named Poquito, but my dad named him. I took him in after my dad passed away in 2017 (although he was an old school Marine, he loved his little dogs, brought them everywhere, and always ordered an extra steak for them when he went out to eat...i really miss that man)

I really feel like this ditch could’ve been milked more for entertainment purposes. I would have had to fight the urge to mess with her like: -oh, are you naming your daughter Matilda? Or Attila? Or are you using the Dutch translation of dill? Or something like: -oh you know I didn’t know this till after I named my dog but tilly means outhouse. 🤣 Some people! She needs intervention tho for real. My family’s pet cat names are great: Nico, Beaker, Sydney, Wiley, Tigger, Perry & Puppers: Roxy & Toby or Tubbers. Feel free to duplicate. They’re all great pets!

To everyone in the comments; PLEASE give some extra pets, love, and maybe treats to your pets on my behalf! I adore all the names, for both the humans and the pets, and may all the lovely childhood pets rest in peace. Article made me annoyed; Tilli and Gribouille made my day.

I felt honored when my 2 year old niece named my mom's dog after me she felt it was a good name for the dog, and I feel the good personality and the type of Aunt I am to her influenced her to feel that was a good name, if I was a crappy Aunt and person she wouldn't have felt the way she did

Considering the nature of the mother, I think in ten years I'd much rather spend time in the company of the canine Tilly than the spoiled 10-year-old Tillie. (For God's sake, they aren't even spelled the same.)

Just cause you share the same name as someone or something doesn't mean you can force that someone or something to change it. Give your child or pet a name and be proud of it.

We also have Minni, Loki and Valkerie who are also our dogs they will also be keeping there name regardless of human nameing choices.

The bible does not specify how many wisemen there were, and no names are mentioned. The idea that there were only 3 is because there were 3 types of gifts. It is a “tradition” that gave 3 names to the wisemen. One is Gaspar, so your dog, Caspar does not share this name.

Bindi Irwin was names after her dad's dog and her middle name after an croc. I doubt she hates her name because of that, rather for her it has more meaning. There are so many names in this world. You are bound to meet someone with your name or similar to your name. That is a matter of life.

btw: My name (Fenja) is a very popular dog name in Germany. When I was a kid, Fenja was an extremely rare name for human girls but a quite common name for dog girls. If you would look into a book about dogs, and it had a chapter about names, you would usually find Fenja as a suggestion. But never, throughout my entire childhood, did I meet another Fenja. Nowadays you can find a Fenja here and there, but it`s still much more common for dogs than it is for humans. I totally like that.

Many years ago I had a cattle dog that I could no longer keep due to moving back with my parents. I gave the dog to a cattle farmer who my father knew. He loved her and she was in her element - only thing is, he couldn't remember what I named her, so changed it to Mandy - My name. I took it as a compliment. She was a fine dog and her puppies were highly sought after, due to her intelligence and abilities. :D

I really don't think she should name the poor child Tillie, our car that was named Tillie caught on fire once, so I really feel like she's jinxing the wee poppet if she names her after our poor wee car....

Perhaps she's under the influence of hormones, anxiety or lack of sleep...and one day she'll realize how strange that her thought process was and it'll live in her mind forever as one of those embarrassing moments that keep you up at night.

Idk, the closest I've ever come to anything like this is when I picked up a couple of kittens at a shelter. One was named Ben, didn't want to keep it because it was my husbands brother's name & it felt weird to think of him any time I called/ saw my cat. Changed his name to Ragnar. But many people change names after shelter buys.

Years ago, I got a cat from the shelter whose name was Salchi (short for salchicha=sausage). I HAD to change her name. I refused to call a living creature Salchi. She didn't care, though. She was too busy looking for the most comfortable place to sleep and sunbathe.

Jennay (of course in my head Forest Gump's voice is saying her name) is a complete whack job. I would tell her to get bent and go away. Just looking at her personality and how she is acting with her request we have to wonder if her poor daughter will end up acting the same way. If that is the case then I am sure that people will like your dog Tilly much more. After all dogs are man's (and woman's) best friend, people not so much.

?????? I'm a little lost. How does the woman know you? If it's not a friend or a relative then how does she know what your dogs named? And I doubt people are going around on Facebook looking up people's dogs names. This all sounds very improbable and made up. I hate this new trend of people making up stories about trying to go viral. Every other day you come across some post about some bloody person who's asked their wedding guests to do this or not do that or how someone has been a selfless hero and just had to humble brag and let the world know how he/she stood up against some injustice and just had to tell everyone, not for himself mind you, but rather to point out what the right thing to do was and he stepped up. Pathetic gits.

Ok I cannot hold back any longer. We live 3 blocks from this woman. We share the same lawn maintenance company. People will NOT work for this witch. She is clinically insane and gets these obsessions over little things and will not let go of them. I know of at least two small businesses that have had to get restraining orders after becoming targets of her irrational rage. My partner thinks she is not just nuts, but dangerously insane, and we are talking 'Fatal Attraction' crazy. This woman has no business having children, and my advice to precious Tillie's owner is to keep her far away from this witch. She is the type to snap and hurt a lot of people. She's a text book case of malignant narcissistic personality disorder.

After my child was born another work colleague used her name to name his pup, and, as the normal not crazy people we are, just laugh about the whole thing.

I had this problem with my youngest daughter, with real babies. My foster mother's friend came to the hospital with her to see my baby after she was admitted to the NICU at 15 days old. The friend was 7 months pregnant, when she asked the baby's name and was told it was Stephanie, she asked me to change the baby's name in front of a room full of relative's and friends because that was the name she picked for her baby if it was a girl, I thought she was joking. When I explained that my daughter had already been registered with that name and we were just waiting on her birth certificate, so changing her name wasn't possible, even if we wanted to, she got pissy with me. When I refused to give in to her demand, she turned around and told people in the waiting room, that my baby was going to die anyway, so I should not be allowed to keep her baby girl name (in spanish), she didn't think my spanish was good enough to understand what she had said to the others.

My parents have an adorable foxy terrier called Tilly, I don’t see the issue with the baby being named the same as a dog.. that woman has issues and needs to get over herself

Sounds like a mad women. What's the issue? There are probably more then one dog with that name (and surely more then one animal). You gonna go changing all the animals name, get outta here! Not to add there might be an animal out there with her name. I would be honored to be named after an animal. This lady should not be worried about a name, but her mental health instead. CRAZY.

Pregnancy hormones can definitely be responsible for making women erratic with good reason (hey, you try growing a human being in your body,) but it's possible this woman was this way to begin with. She needs a keeper.

Am I the only one who thinks naming a child Tilly is weird? Where does that come from exactly ? Also (maybe I'm the only one who saw this but wasn't the dogs name tilly and the daughters was going to be Tillie?? Either way they aren't spelled the same so technically it's not the same name

We share the world with other people, but also animals, creatures.. There's millions of peopel probably called Tilly in the world, as much as in the animal world to, sharing the a common name doesn't mean being in the same specie and personality. Tilly could be a dog, human, hamster, lizard.. Or even a butterfly, it's simply a nice name. Maybe this lady doesn't like dogs. Or has a hard time deciding for a name anyway.

What a strange demanding person, I already feel for her child. my fur babies always have regular “people” names. I’ve 2 cats, Eris (named after the goddess of strife and discord...it totally suits her) and her sister, Sophia (after the gnostic goddess of wisdom). My chihuahua is named Poquito, but my dad named him. I took him in after my dad passed away in 2017 (although he was an old school Marine, he loved his little dogs, brought them everywhere, and always ordered an extra steak for them when he went out to eat...i really miss that man)

I really feel like this ditch could’ve been milked more for entertainment purposes. I would have had to fight the urge to mess with her like: -oh, are you naming your daughter Matilda? Or Attila? Or are you using the Dutch translation of dill? Or something like: -oh you know I didn’t know this till after I named my dog but tilly means outhouse. 🤣 Some people! She needs intervention tho for real. My family’s pet cat names are great: Nico, Beaker, Sydney, Wiley, Tigger, Perry & Puppers: Roxy & Toby or Tubbers. Feel free to duplicate.

The bible does not specify how many wisemen there were, and no names are mentioned. The idea that there were only 3 is because there were 3 types of gifts. It is a “tradition” that gave 3 names to the wisemen. One is Gaspar, so your dog, Caspar does not share this name.

btw: My name (Fenja) is a very popular dog name in Germany. When I was a kid, Fenja was an extremely rare name for human girls but a quite common name for dog girls. If you would look into a book about dogs, and it had a chapter about names, you would usually find Fenja as a suggestion. But never, throughout my entire childhood, did I meet another Fenja. Nowadays you can find a Fenja here and there, but it`s still much more common for dogs than it is for humans. I totally like that.

He loved her and she was in her element - only thing is, he couldn't remember what I named her, so changed it to Mandy - My name. I took it as a compliment. She was a fine dog and her puppies were highly sought after, due to her intelligence and abilities. :D

Sadly for the yet-unborn-girl, her mother is a f'n moron. No one has a copyright retroactively on a name. What's wrong with the dumb b*tch? She can name her daughter whatever she wants, but she is an imbecile to think that gives her exclusive rights to the name.

"Meanwhile, Parents writes that in 2019, the most popular baby girl names are Isla, Olivia, Posie, Aurora, and Cora. The most admired baby boy names are Milo, Jasper, Asher, Atticus, and Silas." I find it so funny, because Cora is a very popular dog name in Poland, and a friend of mine has a cat called Milu :)

I went up to a coffee cart ( Dutch Brothers) and had asked my son what kind of drink he wanted and when I said my son's name this lady standing behind me asked what my son's name was I said Pierre and she said OMG, that's my dogs name and I looked down and said beautiful dog which happened to be a German Shepard puppy, I didn't care if she named her dog Pierre because it's her dog and it's my son's name.

OMFG ... are you kidding me? My Son in Law had a Pit Bull named Chloe LONG before he met my daughter, who had a daughter named CHLOE. It was a little weird to be sure, but I can guarantee you that the kid & the dog BOTH knew which was being addressed. I think they were both "better" mannered as a result.

Lady please what about other females that have the same name as yours. Do you think that they want to share the same name with a idiot like you. Move on. If you want to give your unborn child a different name them make a name for her, call her "vagina" or "a**s"nobody's dogs has does name. See problem solved. Have a great day!

Idk, the closest I've ever come to anything like this is when I picked up a couple of kittens at a shelter. One was named Ben, didn't want to keep it because it was my husbands brother's name & it felt weird to think of him any time I called/ saw my cat. Changed his name to Ragnar. But many people change names after shelter buys.

Jennay (of course in my head Forest Gump's voice is saying her name) is a complete whack job. I would tell her to get bent and go away. Just looking at her personality and how she is acting with her request we have to wonder if her poor daughter will end up acting the same way. If that is the case then I am sure that people will like your dog Tilly much more. After all dogs are man's (and woman's) best friend, people not so much.

?????? I'm a little lost. How does the woman know you? If it's not a friend or a relative then how does she know what your dogs named? And I doubt people are going around on Facebook looking up people's dogs names. This all sounds very improbable and made up. I hate this new trend of people making up stories about trying to go viral. Every other day you come across some post about some bloody person who's asked their wedding guests to do this or not do that or how someone has been a selfless hero and just had to humble brag and let the world know how he/she stood up against some injustice and just had to tell everyone, not for himself mind you, but rather to point out what the right thing to do was and he stepped up. Pathetic gits.
