Highlights

NTA. I don't understand how anyone can insist on how someone else names their child. She's not entitled to that privilege.

NTA, my sibling was named after a character from Super Punch-Out.

If you are going to name your son after a video game character, you should name him Garrus Vakarian. Otherwise, NTA.

NTA. The second you cave on something, even something innocuous (which... a child's name is, frankly, not), you've lost... because the demands will never stop. Every parenting decision you make will be questioned, criticized, and then steamrolled. Set your boundaries, stick to them, and if she wants to write herself out of your child's life because she didn't get her way and threw a temper tantrum... that's her choice.

What a sad fricking existence this tard has

My sister was named after the song that was playing on the way to the hospital (Carrie Anne. They were told she was for sure going to be a boy and didn't have a girl's name picked out... lol!). Names don't need to have some deep, profound origin or familial connection to be meaningful to the parents. As long as you like it (and it won't make your child need therapy in 20 years), go for it.

NTA I named my daughter after a character in zelda ! Your child your choice dont let anyone else sway your decision :)

NTA and if I ever have a son his name will be Garrus... perhaps with the middle name Archangel

NTA- you are the parents it’s your decision. My niece is named after a DC character.

My kid middle name is my wow character from years ago. She's 7 now.

NTA: Sincerely, a guy who isn't joking about his username.

His name is gandalf btw

She is out of line. Go NC unless she says sorry.

She will be the loser here not you, if you keep her away for a while she might learn not to cross boundries and your wife will get a MIL free pregnancy . Win Win

Not associating with a g*mer is winning, actually

NTA, and Arthur Morgan is a fantastic name for a young boah ;) It also makes zero sense to name your child after someone you have little to no memory of. What kind of memorialization is that?

My wife told me that while she's in labor, if I so much as think of saying "You're alright, gurl" or "Eaaaassy, gurl" she will strangle me with the umbilical cord.

I literally hate g*mers so fricking much
