An mother sobbed to her followers online as she spoke about trolls attacking her baby’s unique name.

Liana Jade from Enderby, has a joint YouTube channel with her partner, Connor, and the pair welcomed their son, Koazy, last July. 

But Liana posted a video on her TikTok account in floods of tears, saying that people were criticising her child’s name online after watching a recording of The Unplanned Podcast podcast by American YouTubers Matt and Abby.

The pair called out unusual names as ‘ridiculous’ and ‘out of control’ and although they didn’t mention Koazy directly, someone brought up his name in the comments section, and it spiralled into a huge discussion criticising his name.  

Liana said to her eight million followers: ‘I don’t know if I’m going to post this video. No hate but you might’ve seen that the couple Matt and Abby. 

Liana posted a video on her TikTok account in floods of tears, as she said she that people were criticising her child’s name online

‘I know it’s just their opinion but they posted a clip on their TikTok and their YouTube shorts that they pulled out of their podcast, and they were talking about people naming their kids new, original names. 

‘They were saying how ridiculous some of these new unique names were.’

In the clip, Abby said: ‘I’m gonna be honest with you, it does kinda bug me some of the names that are out there nowadays. So off the wall, I’m like, you know, your child is going to grow up and be an adult and potentially work in a professional setting.

Matt said: ‘I completely agree. If you name your kid a name that’s really cute for a kid, but then they don’t have a name that can be an adult name. That is scary. 

Abby then added: ‘And also some people are like, so proud of like, I don’t know anyone named this name, and I’m naming my kid that and I’m like that might not be the flex that you think it is, that might be a red flag.’

Liana gave birth to her son Koazy last July and has a YouTube channel with other two million subscribers with her partner, Connor

Since Liana posted her video online, Matt and Abby have disabled the comments section on their YouTube Shorts video.  

Liana continued and said: ‘Basically, our baby is called Koazy. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but people have kinds pulled it out of context and said that we called him Koazy because he was cozy in the womb.

‘No, it was a name we already had and as I was getting so heavily pregnant, people were saying “Oh he was cozy in your belly” and it kind of confirmed to us that that’s what we should name him.

‘Because we already had that name and people were saying it and it was almost like “oh my god, it’s meant to be” kinda thing. I wasn’t trying to name him anything for a flex. 

‘Open comments section to allow all of these people who didn’t like our baby name to just rip at it. 

‘It’s really upset me. I knew everyone wasn’t going to love the name so I’m not gonna sit here defending it, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but it’s just different when there’s this comments section open on such a big influencer’s video of people, fully grown adults, just sat there slandering my baby’s name.

‘I think it’s quite cruel and if I posted that video personally and I was going to express that opinion that I had, I think I would be very mindful of who was being named and how that could have an affect on other people.’

New mother Molly Mae commented on the video and supported Liana, which got  a whopping 34,000 likes 

Other fans then comforted Liana, and said that they liked her baby’s name and not to listen to others

People in the comments were generally supportive, with even new-mother Molly Mae commenting: ‘All that matters is that you and your partner love the name!’ which got 34,000 likes. 

Another commented saying: ‘Koazy is such a sweet name DONT listen to them xx’

Another penned: ‘Koazy it’s a beautiful name and it’s so unique.’ 

A third said: ‘You just said fully grown adults. If they can’t be an adult and respect the name of your child they’re not worth the attention!!’
