'Doctor keeps spelling my son's name wrong - I'm worried I made a mistake'

Naming your child is undeniably difficult - and it's safe to say that you want the lifelong commitment to be a perfect choice. On top of the already existing pressure, several parents out there may additionally hit hurdles over the spelling choice for their little ones.

One mum has faced the consequences of using a name with two spellings and has been left bewildered by the result. The unnamed parent documented her concerns on popular online forum Reddit, sharing her worries that she made a mistake. The woman admitted that she feels as if she's made "life complicated" by naming her son Nicolas rather than Nicholas.
