When it comes to picking names for your little one, you want to make sure that you won’t regret it later on.

But one mother has revealed how she was left feeling ‘guilty’ after her friends told her that her sons have ‘naughty’ names, adding that they called her ‘really brave’ to have chosen the names for her children.

Posting on Mumsnet, the mother said: “A friend made a light-hearted comment (supposedly) about my two children’s names last week and I am convinced she’s a Mumsnet 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 honor his history,” the mother went on.

“He used to live in Scotland but moved to England to settle down with me and as all his family are still in Scotland, we felt Scottish names would be a nod to them.

“We had a son first and called him Arran (pronounced Arun) after one of the Isles and we joked that if our second child was a girl, we would call her Skye. Our second child turned out to be another gorgeous boy so we called him Lewis, after one of the other Scottish Isles.”

The mom explained that her friend is pregnant that’s why they were talking about baby names. With a giggle, her pal told her that she was ‘really brave’ for giving her sons names ‘associated with being naughty.’

“Has anyone else been in a similar boat and how did you move on from it?” she asked fellow parents.

People on Mumsnet were quick to share their thoughts, with one person writing: “There is no such thing as a ‘naughty boy name’. It is just the personal associations people have with a name.”

Another reassured the mother that she had picked ‘lovely’ names for her children.
