I (23ftm) went up to my boyfriend’s place in September of last year so this isn’t recent but I’ve been thinking about it on and off since she gave birth.

His family is all pretty close so his sister and their siblings (twins that are 15) and his mom and some friends were all there.

Everyone (except the sister(Angela, fake name) and twins ofc) end up getting a bit tipsy and we find out that Angela, at 7 months pregnant has no idea what to name her baby

We start throwing around baby names

Michael

Juniper

Lucille

Jayden

Kayden

All the Ayden names actually

We were saying names we hated like Makayla or Shayne or Michelle that she absolutely shouldn’t use

I laugh and go “You could do something ‘unconventional’ like Gravity or Codeine they sound like princess names to me!” And then I laughed for literally five minutes and said “no no, don’t that’s awful just do like Lilly or something generic”

Well

Two months later and Angela’s family is blowing up my phone in the middle of a work day, I think my bf DIED or smthn so I call their mom and ask what’s going on is everyone okay, etc etc and she yells into the phone

“That dumbass named her baby gravity!”

I’m gobsmacked because??? What??? Actually???

Fully truly, that woman named her baby Gravity.

I do actually like the names I suggested but I have the wherewithal to know that in modern context they’re dumbass fucking names.

Almost posted this in AITA but I don’t it applies lmao I didn’t force her I merely suggested it as a joke. Lowkey tho I think she should’ve gone with Codeine because then at least she can shorten the name to Cody. What’s she gonna do with Gravity? Gravy???

TLDR: Suggested my friend name her baby Gravity as a joke while tipsy and the silly sod actually did it -_-
