A mum has been left feeling "guilty" after a friend told her that the Scottish names she chose for children are stereotypically "naughty names". Posting to Mumsnet, the anonymous woman said she was "hurt" by the fellow mum's comments, and is now worried that her two sons' names have "negative associations".
With another baby on the way, the parent has also been left fearful that she will make the same mistake, Hull Live reports. Taking to the online forum, she wrote: "A friend made a light hearted comment (supposedly) about my two children’s names last week and I am convinced she’s a MN member seeing as she used the term ‘naughty boy name’.
"My husband has got Scottish roots and before we [tried to conceive] the plan was always that we would honour his history."
