An expectant mum has been left baffled after her pals 'recoiled' when she revealed the name she plans to give her daughter.
The proud parent was given free rein over the choice after her husband named their firstborn. But she nonetheless wanted something they both liked, and they agreed to go with a 'classic' moniker.
"We have both settled on Beatrice for her," the mum explained in a post to Reddit. "It's been a long-time favourite of mine, I love that it's a 'proper' name that's vintage, classic, and has no negative connotations throughout history. I find it a nice elegant alternative in a sea of Charlotte's and Florence's."
