The couple have both agreed to retain veto power over their daughter’s name, leading to a heated argument. The man is worried about the potential for their daughter to be bullied due to her name, while the wife wants to honor her mother’s memory. The situation has sparked a debate online, with many weighing in on both sides. Read on to find out what happened when the couple discussed the issue and what they ultimately decided to name their daughter.

Man sparks debate by refusing to name daughter Karen

A man and his wife disagreed on naming their unborn daughter after her late mother, whose name happens to be Karen. The man was hesitant to name his daughter Karen because of the negative connotations that come with the name due to recent internet memes. He did not want his daughter to be bullied throughout her life. However, his wife was insistent on the name as it was a tribute to her late mother. After a talk, they decided to name their daughter after both of their mothers’ shared middle name, Elizabeth. This sparked a debate among social media users whether the man was right in vetoing the name Karen. Some argued that the meme will die out by the time the child is old enough, while others believed that the father had the right to veto any name that could potentially harm their child.
