Mum picks perfect name for baby - but some say it reminds them too much of death row

Picking a name for your unborn child is no easy task, and parents will no doubt want to ensure their chosen name doesn't have any potentially negative connotations. Unfortunately for one expectant mother, people fear her baby name of choice will remind people just too much of 'death row'.

The pregnant woman, who already has three children, has been pondering over the name 'Clemency' for her fourth child, with the intention of using the "nickname Cece rather than Clem/mie". However, not everybody is all too sure about it, and feel it puts them in mind of a condemned prisoner "begging for mercy."
