What is going on everyone and welcome back to the channel? I hope you're all doing well.

Now today I've got for you a phenomenal story from R slash Best of Redditor updates.

This one originally comes from R slash Am I the Jerk, posted at the start of January 2024 and it's an absolute

cracker. Now as you can tell by the title this woman wants to name her baby after her

dead best friend. However things are a lot more complicated than that, when actually, it turns out that name has links back to the Nazi party.

Without further ado, no more spoilers, no more clues. Let's get straight into this one. This is one of the best stories I've read recently without a doubt. If you're new to the channel, subscribe. Drop a like on this one if we're excited. Here we go.

Am I the jerk for banning my wife from naming our baby after her dead best friend?

Long story short, I am a 28 year old man and my wife, who is also 28, is estranged from her family

and has been since a teenager.

She met Eva in school and they were inseparable,

with Eva letting my wife stay over a lot

as well as providing a constant source of support.

I met my wife at university. Unfortunately, Eva died suddenly a year into our relationship.

I'd met her a few times and she was lovely. My wife was understandably devastated.

Two years ago we married and she took my last name, Brown.

Our baby girl is due in the spring and understandably my wife wants to honor Eva in her name.

This is something that she has said throughout the relationship.

I was happy with the idea of honoring her and we've discussed baby names throughout the relationship and pregnancy.

The leading name we were tossing about was a place name that had significant memories to them.

Yesterday she came up to me and said that she had a dream about either asking her to remember her by her name.

She had some like this around the time either died, but none recently to my knowledge.

And to memorialize her, our baby must be called Eva.
