Okay so my cousin is having a baby and she was totally planning on naming her Savannah Gabriella. Which I know, I know.. Its very popular but I was like whatever its not THAT bad, ill just call her Hannah and that will be cute.

So today she told me that she changed her mind and now she is going to name her.. But before I tell you the name, let me remind you that I live in a small town in RI where the "trendy/creative" name trend hasnt really been a problem with newborns.

But apparently it has because she is now going to name her.. Nevaeh Grace.

Omg. Shoot me now. How do I tell her nicely how bad her child's name is going to be. She was telling me how beautiful it is and she saw it online and never heard of it before.

Oh... no... I think this is one of those times when neither saying something nor saying nothing is a good idea.

However, just based on what you wrote, maybe she doesn't realize just how trendy-to-the-point-of-obnoxious that name is. She said she'd never heard it before, so perhaps part of the draw is that she perceives it to be a lot less trendy/common than it is. If she's fully aware of all that but still likes it, though, I would just back off. After all, it's her kid. You could always call her Grace. :{
