A mum-to-be has been blasted over her plan to give her baby son a shocking name-combo.
Like many expectant parents the woman and her partner had agonised over what to name their baby before he arrived, and had finally settled on a first and middle name.
The couple had decided the boy's first name would start with an M and his middle name would start with the initial O and they were planning to nickname him 'Mo'.
All fine, however the couple's surname is Leicester, which is pronounced 'Lester', meaning the child would be known as 'Mo Leicester'.
The pair apparently hadn't picked up on the unfortunate reality that their baby's name would sound very similar to 'molester' - until the mum-to-be's cousin pointed it out.
However they were unhappy with her observation and they were annoyed she pointed out the red flag.
Taking to Reddit to ask fellow social media users if she was in the wrong, the 21-year-old said: "I have a married cousin who has always been sort of holier-than-thou in our family just because she is the oldest, rather successful and first to settle down.
"She is pregnant with her first child, a son, and has announced the name. Both are family names, and the middle actually is after our grandfather.
"The name would be perfectly fine if it wasn't for the surname. The initials of the name is M. O. and her surname is Leicester (pronounced 'Lester').
"I saw the obvious red flags in the name, and texted her saying, 'Are you sure about the baby name, just say Mo Leicester out loud.' She replied, 'Yeah it's a lovely name, anyways we're just calling him Mo, he'll be called by his first name at school.'
"I left it after that, as she's pretty hard to argue with - until she posted a picture of a babygro with Mo Leicester emblazoned across it. I then texted her, 'Your kid is really gonna get bullied when his classmates can put two and two together.'
The texts left the mum-to-be furious and she informed her faamily of the cousin's words and accused her of being 'jealous'.
However, the cousin isn't the only one who can see an issue with the name.
The pregnant woman's brother also thinks it's "ridiculous" and tried to talk to her husband, but he thinks Mo is a "cool" name, like the runner Mo Farah.
Fellow Reddit users also agreed that the name choices were awful.
One person even went as far as to say it was "abuse" because the kid could be bullied for it one day.
