PICKING the perfect name for your little one isn’t always easy, especially if you want someone a little more unique.
But one mum has left people in disbelief after she gave her daughter a name that sounds exactly like a tasty Italian meal.
The mum tried to prove she really called her daughter Liz Anya in a follow-up video[/caption]
She recently took to social media to reveal her little one’s name and people were convinced she was joking.
In the video, the mum, who is called Kayla, revealed she called her bundle of joy Liz Anya.
If you’re thinking that sounds a lot like Lasagne, you’re not the only one.
In the clip, the mum showed her little one in the hospital being wrapped in a blanket and a cute lilac hat.
The text over the clip reads: “So what are you gonna call her?”
Before she showed off the newborn’s name on the hospital info sheet, confirming she gave her the moniker Liz Anya.
Kayla captioned the throwback video: “Happy almost two years to my baby. Can’t believe she’s a toddler now. Liz Anya Maguire.”
After revealing her tot’s name online people still weren’t sure if Kayla was completely serious.
One said: “Just say yes or no, is that her real name?”
Kayla replied with a video of the now two-year-old Liz, responding when called by her name, putting any rumours of her joking to rest.
Some people slammed the mum for the name, as one claimed her daughter would be “bullied for life” because of the name pairing.
“This is cruel if true,” she said.
And a second agreed: “I hope this is a joke because oh wow.”
Meanwhile, others loved the unique name and praised the mum for her unique choice.
“I was like ‘oh what an adorable name, what’s wrong with that?’ then I finally understood, lasagne,” wrote one TikTok user.
“I’m so mad I didn’t think of this! My husband is Italian so this would have been genius lol,” one mum commented on the viral clip.
“This was my go-to for twin girls,” another mum wrote in the comments.
“I wanted to name my daughter Lizard but have everyone call her Liz,” someone else joked.
MORE UNIQUE NAMES
Kayla isn’t the only mum who has come under fire for picking a unique name though, as another parent was recently slammed for her “tacky” choice.
Taking to Reddit, another woman revealed that she “can’t get over” the fact that she recently spotted a child who was named “Khemistry”.

“I’ve got nothing against the kid, it’s not her fault,” she said.
“But my God, the name is horrible. I feel so bad for this little girl.”
Reddit users flooded the comments section of the post, to share their thoughts on the unusual name choice.
One person said: “That name is a crime.”
Another person joked: “Maybe she’ll meet Fysixs and they’ll be best friends.”
A third person said: “As a Chemistry student, I do not approve this message.”
