Mum picks 'hard to pronounce' name for daughter - but worries she's being 'cruel'

Choosing a baby name is no easy task, and even when you have picked out a name you love, there's always a chance that something will ruin it for you - just like one mum who ditched her favourite moniker because of a popular Disney movie.

And now, another expectant mum is looking for opinions on the name she wants to give her daughter, as she isn't sure if she's being "cruel" by giving her a name with a somewhat complicated spelling.

The mum, from Australia, said she's "really drawn" to Irish names and wants to call her daughter Niamh, but is concerned that she'll be making her child's life more difficult by giving her a name that people in her home country won't know how to pronounce.
