DECIDING on a name for your child is an extremely difficult decision for any parent to make.
One mum has taken to TikTok to reveal her regret over her son’s name.
Mackenzie Waddell (known on social media as @missmommymack), explained that she wanted to name her children after her family members.
The 27-year-old mum-of-two explained that she is very happy with her daughter’s name, but when it came to her son’s name, she didn’t think of the very rude hidden meaning that his nickname would have.
Mackenzie has 128.8k followers and 4.1million likes and regularly shares insights into her life with two young children.
In one of her latest videos, the mum posted a duet video responding to a question from Gabby Lamby that read: “I have a question for parents, do you ever regret what you named your kid?”.

The mum-of-two uploaded her video with the caption ‘we call him “Jamie”’, as she explained her name regret.
She said: “I’ve been waiting for this one, I’ve always had problems picking out names for kids because they’re going to have it forever.
“My husband really liked the idea of having family names – I love my daughter’s name, her name is Paige Addison – Paige is my mother-in-law’s maiden name and Addison was his great-grandfather’s name.
“So when I found out I was having a boy, I wanted to do the same, but for my family.
