'I've picked a name for my baby - but I'm worried it sounds like a dog'

When you're choosing a name for your baby, there are so many things you'll consider. You want to give your child a name that you love, but you might not want to opt for one that sounds too much like anything else, such as an animal's name. This has been the case for one woman, as the mum-to-be was concerned that the name she had chosen sounded like a popular family pet name.

She took to Reddit to ask people's opinions on the name she had chosen for a boy - Otis. She wrote: "What does the name Otis make you think of? Is it a dog/cat name to you? What would you think if someone introduced you to their baby called Otis?
