After explaining that she is French Canadian, the woman said, "The name we chose will sound totally normal to you, but here it is quite unusual because it's an English name.
"So, at the hospital, we chose to name our son Logan. My son is now six months old, and I am still not used to his name. It was difficult from the start to choose a name.
"A lot of names we loved didn't work well with my husband's name. We also had very different tastes for boys' names. So we waited until the last minute to choose.
"Logan was not the first choice for either of us, but it was the only name we both agreed on. We made the decision to give him an "original" name. I thought I could live well with that and defend my choice."
She added that by giving him an English name she believed it would help her son "stand out" and "give him an edge on the job market". However, six months later she has realised that she isn't "comfortable" with the name Logan.
"I don't live well with people raising an eyebrow or asking me to repeat. I don't want to change my son's name, but does anybody have a similar story?
"How long did it take for you to get used to it?"
Many Reddit users were supportive of the new mum and revealed their experience with name regret in the comment section.
One said, "I can see where you're coming from. I'm from Germany originally and a name like Logan would certainly be a bit odd there, so I imagine it'd be about the same in French Canada."
They went on to say, "You'll get used to it. He'll get used to it. And everyone around him will get used to it."
One person said, "I like the name Logan!" THe comment was backed by someone else who wrote, "Logan's a good name, don't sweat it."
Another said they didn't like their daughter's name but by around eight months when she had started walking around and showing her personality, they decided they were used to it and stuck with it.
"Now I can't imagine her with any other name!" they said.
