My husband secretly named our son after a meme and I hate him for it (self.offmychest) 636 submitted 5 years ago by ashamedofmyhusband I have been with my husband since we were in college (a little over a decade altogether) and in that time I've never question his honesty/loyalty to me or our relationship. So when he insisted on naming our son "Alberto" after a man who saved him from drowning when he was a kid, I thought it a little strange but nonetheless went with it. My last name (which he took) is Barbosa, owing to my Portugese heritage. I've since found out that "Alberto Barbosa" is a kind of "meme name" on the internet sites he frequents. I found out after discovering a folder called "Alberto Barbosa" on his work laptop, filled with what seemed like hundreds of pictures of an African man with a kind of Portuguese themed turban. Reverse image searching one of these bizare images is how I found out the name's true meaning. Since this discovery, I feel increasingly paranoid that the only reason he ever took my name in the first place was because of this stupid meme. We only got married early last year, after/around the time this meme seems to have been created. Before this I had always assumed I would just take his name, until he said he wanted to take mine (an act I was actually touched by and found very sweet, ugh...) This entire ordeal has me so mad. On the one hand it's just a name, but on the other he went behind my back to name our first born son over a stupid bloody internet meme. What's worse is that he refuses to have our son's name changed and insists it's just a coincidence, which is a load of b------- considering the amount of images he had saved of this. He refuses to acknowledge this as a serious problem and I am so furious with him, but ultimately feel powerless given he provides for me and our newborn. Sorry for rambling on a bit, I just needed to get this ridiculous and infuriating issue off my chest as I'm too ashamed to tell my friends and family of his actions.
