I’m so mad!!! I’ve had the name Gracelynn picked out for yeeeears. Of course I told my best friend at the time my baby name and then she got pregnant with her first girl. We were also friends with a lady named Jennifer and Jennifer was pregnant before Cheyenne was (the name stealer). She stole Jennifer’s baby name and lied about it. (The name was Emma). Me and Cheyenne stopped talking about a year ago because she’s petty and childish and I just don’t need that toxicity in my life. Cheyenne has told a mutual friend of ours (Jessica) that she was just jealous of her because Jessica had a miscarriage and more than likely can’t have babies (or it will be very hard for her to). Cheyenne just found out she was pregnant again with a little girl and NAMED HER GRACELYNN. I’m glad I changed my baby name recently but it still made me super mad that she took it. I’m trying hard to let it go because I don’t have any kids and I’m not pregnant yet but I had my heart set on that name for a very long time until recently. The name was still an option for me and now I feel like it’s been taken away because I don’t want to give her the chance to say that I stole it from her, which simply just isn’t true. I just had to get that out, it’s jot my fault she’s not original enough to come up with her own names. 🤷‍♀️

Edit: petty sounding or not, she was supposed to be a good friend but whatever. I just had to get it out. This is the second time she’s done this but okay. And has many boards as I want to post it on 😁 thanks for asking.

Edit: so what everybody is saying is that they would be 100% okay with someone they were friends with naming their child the EXACT name she knew you were going to use? And I’m not talking bad about her, I’m stating FACTS on everything she’s done. We stopped talking and now she’s just being petty. I’m

Not jealous she’s pregnant, I’m pissed she can’t come up with an original name. It’s just not the first time she’s done this.

Despite what some of y’all seem to believe, I’m not stupid. I know the name isn’t mine and mine only, that’s not my damn point. But keep missing the point so y’all can continue to be rude. I’ve CLEARLY stated in the original post that I was trying to get over it and not be mad about it because LIKE I SAID, I’ve changed my name. Do you, call me childish or petty or whatever but let it happen to you and see if you would still feel the same way you do now. And for some of you to say “thank God you dont have kids” shame on you. For you to say that just because I’m upset about a name is hateful. You don’t know what I’ve been through and what I’m currently going through and to see those words on a post that I’m simply RANTING about, it’s pisses me off and its upsetting. I’ve always known that I’ve wanted to be and mom and is currently trying to get pregnant with my husband. The reason why this upsets me FOR THE HUNDREDTH TIME is because I was VERY set on that name when she wasn’t. but yes, shame on me for having feelings. And to the person that keeps coming back just to make snarky ass comments, are you done? Do you not have anyone else to be rude to?

Edit for the last time: these are the reasons why I stopped talking to her, so no, I’m not all up in her business, she did all of this while we were friends. FOR THE LAST TIME I’m well aware that I can’t own a damn name. Jesus Christ. Gracelynn is uncommon around where I live, that’s the reason why I liked it so much.
