A bizarre feud has broken out between a mum and her own mother - who refuses to call her youngest child by her name.
The anonymous mum, whose daughter is named Cassia turned to the internet for advice after her mum says she "can't do exotic foreign names".
Instead the girl's grandmother insists on calling her Candy - a name the mum despises.
She posted about her dilemma on Mumsnet , writing: "My youngest is called Cassia. It's not hard. My four-year-old calls her Cass or Cassie. Fine. My flipping mother says she can't do 'exotic foreign names' and calls her Candy which I HATE!
"I've spoken to her about it a billion times (probably an exaggeration but not by much) she laughs it off. I'm scared it will stick.
"My husband says he will start calling her Jelly if she carries on and she tells him not to be so disrespectful. Any advice apart from the very tempting gaffer tape over the mouth solution?"
One responder suggested threatening to stop allowing her mum to spend time with her daughter.
She wrote: "So rude. I'd be limiting time with her. 'If you don't even care enough to get our daughter's name right I don't think we'll be coming over that often...'"
And another posted: "I would tell my mother if she doesn't call my child by their correct name then they won't be given the opportunity to call them their name at all."
