Dissed. Does this mean I can't name my dog Alexandri?

"They essentially gave their child the same name as ours and we cannot say anything because the baby is sick"

So if the baby weren't sick, she would tell this couple to go sit on a cactus? Wtf

Yeah it's pretty obnoxious, particularly since they initially say they are not that close with this person AND it's not even the same name.  If you don't like your kid sharing a nickname with this other kid, then use their full name or find another NN.  But it's going to be a tough life.
