Horrible name choice

So my son is Abel, my daughter is Blair, now I’m pregnant without third and my husband is SET on Cain….. however my MIL and my sister are both like No No you CANT have cain and Abel ( we are not religious at all!!) but I do kinda like Cain…. Bad idea or don’t give a shit what people say?

Yeah that’s not a great combo 😂 It’s like naming your kids Cersei & Jaime

But no one can stop you from doing what you want lol

The story of Cain and Abel is so famous, putting those two names together is going to draw a lot of comments, jokes and potentially bullying for him as he gets older. He might even resent the association when he learns the story himself. Obviously totally your choice but just wanted to throw that out there in case you hadn't considered how heavy that combo might be for him growing up. People immediately jump to the biblical story, which could mean a lifetime of sibling rivalry jokes, awkward questions or kids picking on him at school. For him he might care what people think. I wouldn’t personally risk it but totally your choice x

100% agreeing with T... Don't subject your kids to any possible future bullying... We all know how school is. Bullying is everywhere.
Mybe Kyan instead 😁?
