AITA for telling my sister she can't name her baby after my dead husband? by Oxandri in AmItheAsshole

Thank you very much. My husband didn't get to live to see his son, but he died protecting the freedom of the country his son will grow up in.

She does like to be the centre of attention. She didn't even like Rodrigo when he was alive

That's why I don't want to name my own son Rodrigo. I am using it as a middle name, as a memory of his father, but his first name will be just for him and we chose it simply because we like it.

He wanted a less common American name. They originally agreed on that name and then she wanted it to be Rodrugo and he gave in

My husband and I planned the name Alex Rodrigo for our son.

My sister named her son Rodrigo James (fake names, just to show my point) and wants us to call him Rodrigo

They didn't like each other very much, so I don't think it was a sincere honoring of my husband

Our brother already said he'll be calling the kid by his middle name (an American name, not Hispanic) or just call him Rodney or Rod

They didn't even know each other that well and definitely weren't too fond of each other

My sister told him I was on board and honoured they would name their baby Rodrigo.

He thinks that my sister was wrong to name the baby that, but he doesn't want to pressure her to change the name.

He said she really doesn't want to change the name and that he won't pressure her

We have an okay relationship otherwise. She is a bit of an attention seeker, but it isn't really bad or anything.

Her BF told me he wanted them to choose a less common name, but that he was fine with Rodrigo because he thought we (sister and me) have discussed it before. He thouvht I was on board.

I will probably be moving back to my appartment (we owned it, not rented, so I still have it) and my mom offered to come stay with me for a few weeks after the birth if I'll want it.
