I picked a name for my baby girl but now everyone says it sounds like sea witch | The Sun

GETTING the right name for your newborn is a challenge, especially as they will have to live with your choice forever.

Parents often take to forums for advise on their selected name just to see what others think – and sometimes the feedback is brutal.

One such mum-to-be was grappling with a few different names but one of her favourites was absolutely slated by fellow parents.

Taking to Mumsnet, she said she really liked "Saint names" and suggested "Helena, Ursula and Marina."

People weren't impressed with her suggestions, and were particularly down on Ursula, saying it sounded like a sea witch.

One person said: "Ursula giving me evil witch vibes from little mermaid."
