A COUPLE has caused controversy after sharing the very unique name they’ve chosen for their newborn son.
Morgan and boyfriend Lou welcomed their first child into the world a week ago, and decided to unveil his in a video on their TikTok page.
In the clip, they admitted it was “really easy”;; for them to settle on a name for a little girl, and had chosen Birdie Lou for if they’d had a daughter.
“But it was really hard for us to find a boy name that was like equally as exciting,”;; Morgan admitted.
So, instead of going the traditional route of going through a baby name book, decided to go through their, looking for one that “spoke to us the most”;; and “had sentimental meaning”;;.
“And that’s how we ended up landing on Pony Ramone Presley,”;; they said.
They went on to explain where the inspiration for the name had come from, as they said that on their first date, they had danced to an Orville Peck song called Pony.
“So when we saw this record, it felt right,”;; Morgan added.
“Beautiful name!”;; Lou chimed in.
The tot’s middle name was inspired by the rock band Ramones.
“When we first found out she was pregnant, we were actually heavily, heavily listening to the Ramones,”;; Lou said.
“So it just felt right, and it just sounds nice.”;;
“Welcome to the world Pony Ramone,”;; they wrote over the top of the video as it came to an end, with Lou holding up a onesie that had the name ‘Pony’ emblazoned on the front.
The video quickly attracted comments, with the majority coming from people who insisted they’d assigned their son to a “lifetime of bullying”;; by giving him that name.
“That’s so terrible I’m sorry lol,”;; one wrote.
“You’re naming a future adult. You’re being selfish,”;; another raged.
“Pony???? Jesus Christ!”;;
“The bullying he’s going to get for his name though...”;; a third said.
“Parents caring more about appearing original and trendy than caring about how their name choice will affect the baby through their life is always wild to me,”;; someone else sighed.
“Feels selfish.”;;
“People choose names for their children as if they were choosing a name for a pet,”;; another commented.
“Oh my gosh that poor boy when he starts ,”;; someone else said, while another called him “that poor kid”;;.
“I swear some people just name their children anything these days,”;; someone else wrote.
“Might as well name mine Chair, Zebra, Door knob, and butter dish!”;;
“That’s a baby, not a puppy,”;; another said.
However, there were those in the comments section who approved of the baby’s unusual name.
“Stay true to your uniqueness guys, that little man is going to live a blessed life,”;; one wrote.
“I’m actually so obsessed with Pony as a first name!”;; another admitted.
“Oh I am absolutely in love with his beautiful name,”;; a third commented.
It’s a baby, not a puppy

“Having a unique name is really fun! Two of the coolest parents ever!”;;
“Pony has the most badass parents,”;; someone else agreed.
“Love his name!”;;
“I LOVE Pony because its a reflection of your love onto your sweet baby. Don’t listen to anyone else,”;; another urged.
“People act like we don’t already live in a world full of Forests, Diamonds, Bartholomews, and Cinnamons,”;; someone else wrote.
“Pony is actually so sweet and meaningful. They actually picked a cool name instead of a normal name spelled ENTIRELY WRONG in order to be ‘unique’.”;;
