I'm a tad skeptical this woman comes from "a long lasting family of both squires and senators."

A pregnant woman called off her baby shower after her family ridiculed the name she had bestowed on her unborn son: Squire Sebastian Senator.

In a Facebook post, which later went viral after being shared on Reddit, the woman — who has not been named — explained her decision to cancel her baby shower, blaming her “fake a** family.”

“I have a really important announcement to make. It brings me pain to have to tell you this, but I am cancelling the event,” she wrote. “Why am I doing this?” Because ya’ll have been talking s*** about my unborn baby. AN UNBORN CHILD.”

“How can you judge an unborn child?? What is wrong with you?”

The woman goes on to accuse her friends and family of treating her “like total s***” after they questioned her strange name choice.

“They’ve spread rumors and lies about my child. No, I am not crazy. No, I am not mentally unstable. No, I was not drunk when I named my child,” she continued. “His name is Squire Sebastian Senator.”

The woman then declares that the chosen name will only be her son’s “first name and “he will not be allowed to have a nickname” before explaining the reason.

“We come from a long lasting family of both squires and senators. If you look back in our family tree, the survival of this clan is literally rooted in squiredom. We are all related to senators too,” she said. “This name conveys power. It conveys wealth. It conveys success.”

“My baby’s name WILL be a revolution,” the woman continued, before claiming the naming will ensure her son is “extraordinary.”

The post on Reddit has gathered over 36,000 likes and 3,000 comments, with most users mocking the woman for the name choice and her rant.

“To play devil’s mediator here, I think Senator would have been the most normal insane name. Squire is too weird for a name, and Sebastian is too “basic” and “boring." Senator would have been perfect for what she’s looking for,” one user wrote.

Another added: “This could be the first ever child to run away from home before he's born.”

Several users also pointed out that it was more likely that people were making fun of her “poor naming choices” rather than of her baby itself.

The woman’s story comes just weeks after a Southwest Airlines agent was accused of mocking a 5-year-old girl’s name on social media.
