Mum changes son's name after six months because she felt 'uncomfortable' with it

A mum has confessed she decided to change her son's name six months after he was born, after she was left feeling "uncomfortable" with the one she had originally chosen. Jen Hamilton, 32, and her husband Brian, 35, had initially picked out the name Aspen for their little boy, but they began to doubt their decision when people told them he could be "bullied" at school over the moniker.

Jen, a labour and delivery nurse, then began to worry that she'd made a horrible mistake, until her sister suggested that she could just change her son's name to something else. And so, she did, with the mum-of-two and her husband eventually settling on the name Luke.
