Mum defends child’s unusual name after being mocked by critics
A mum has defended her baby’s name after trolls made fun of the parent’s decision.
Jade Jeanes told The Bristol Post that herself and her husband Joshua, both 27, wanted something extravagant for their child’s name as they had been waiting for seven years to conceive.
After some debate on whether their child should be called Belle after Jade’s favourite Disney heroine in Beauty and the Beast, the couple settled on Disney.
Despite making her choice and having nurses in the delivery room recognise that the name is unique, Jade decided to share her baby’s name with a Facebook page created for parents.
She was devastated when mums mocked her baby’s name on the page.
Jade couldn’t understand the criticism, saying “it’s just a name.”
Jade said:
“Friends and family love the name, and I do too. It’s no one’s business what we decided to call her.”
Jade also said that Disney loves Disney films, as she’s been described as “transfixed” whenever there’s a Disney movie on TV.
“It was more of a fun post that I assumed people would be okay with. In the end, people just either hate it or love it.”
