She Went Viral After Explaining On TikTok That Her Dad Chose To Name Her After His Mistress

When you’re expecting a child, their name is something you agonize over for months, because that’s one thing they will have for the rest of their lives.

Some parents pick the name of their baby to pay homage to a beloved family member, some parents pick a name because it has a special meaning, and some parents choose their baby’s name because it sounds trendy and cute.

One woman named Kristina took to TikTok to share the meaning behind her own name, and let’s just say her dad picked it for a pretty interesting reason.

Kristina started out by explaining that her parents agreed on a naming rule before she was even born.

If she ended up being a boy, her mom would get to pick out her name (she was planning on naming her son after her grandpa), and if she ended up being a girl, her dad would get to pick out her name.

Well, Kristina is a girl, and when she came out her dad wasted no time writing down her name on the paperwork.

Her mom didn’t protest, since she had to have a c-section and she was medicated.

“When my mom came to I guess she didn’t really hate the name so she just kind of went with it,” Kristina said.

“And, you know, everything was fine for a few months, until my mom found out my dad was cheating on her.”

“And guess what the woman’s name was? Kristina. So if he messed up and called her the wrong name, he could say he was talking about me!”

That some story behind a name, isn’t it? In the comments of Kristina’s video, people shared the story behind their names, and here are a few of the wildest ones.

“I’m named after a little boy that my mom used to babysit when she was a teen that accidentally hung himself with a jump rope.”

“My dad named me after a girl he had a crush on in middle school, when my mom found out she stabbed him with a fork.”

“I was named after a hitch hiker…My mom had picked him up in Alaska and she said he had the most beautiful eyes.”

“My mom was named after one of her dad’s mistresses too! She hates her name. My dad’s ex named her kids after/similar to us too.”
