After six months, a woman changed her son’s name because she felt uncomfortable telling others about her previous decision.

Jen Hamilton, 32, reports they were only sometimes pleased when she informed people her second son’s name was Aspen.

She confided With Julia Koontz, who advised her to alter her name if she wasn’t comfortable with it.

Jen ensured that her husband Brian, a 35-year-old operating room assistant, was on board before they began brainstorming names for their six-month-old child.

They eventually decided on Luke because it meant “light” and matched their son, who they claim is constantly bright and smiling.

After a year, Luke’s name was changed, and Jen says she is glad she did.

“Aspen just didn’t seem to fit him,” Jen, a labour from Charlotte, North Carolina, remarked.

We struggled to find a suitable name for our second child until we came across Aspen on a Pinterest list of outdoor names.

“I assumed it would fit when he was born, but after a few months, I had problems with it.”

When it was suggested that if his name were changed to “Ass,” he would be tormented, I stated that I had never heard anyone ask his name.

“The name trial was a thrilling experience for him.”

It’s tough to name a baby you’ve never met, so it was easier now that we knew him.

“Right now, we adore Luke and think it’s ideal for him.”

“We’re delighted we switched it.”

Jen and Brian struggled to find a suitable name for their kid before he was born in 2016.

Aspen was eventually chosen as their favourite name.

“We didn’t like the name, but we figured it’d be his,” she explained.

But after a few months, something didn’t feel right, and when others heard his name, they kept commenting, “Ah, that’s fascinating.”

They would never say something like, “That’s a great name,” or something similar. “I started to feel nervous when I started mentioning his name to others.”

Jen, a mother of two, met with her sister six months later to discuss her possibilities.

“She just asked why you didn’t replace it,” Jen explained. “It effectively gave me the green light to act.”

He had no relation to the name because he was still young. When I spoke with Brian, he seemed eager to make a move.

“So, analogous to putting on clothes, we entered a phase of testing on names,” the speaker added.

The pair explored the meanings of various generic names before settling on one.

“We both enjoyed it,” Jen commented after discovering that Luke meant “light.”

“Our boy was always so happy and cheerful, so it felt like it was meant for him,” remarked the mother.

Jen started formally altering his name, which took a year owing to missing paperwork.

“I think it should be illegal to choose a name while pregnant,” Jen added.

“We’re glad we changed the name because it perfectly represents who he is,” the team added.

“I want parents to know that if they don’t like their child’s name after birth, they can change it.”

“Luke is aware that he used to be known as Aspen. It’s a charming aspect of his narrative.”
