A couple has given their baby a name that involves a play on numbers – but that’s not what has social media users talking.

Instead, The Sun reports, viewers are fixated on other aspects of their birth announcement that are a bit off-centre.

Taking to a baby name forum on Reddit, one user shared a woman’s baby announcement which was originally posted on Instagram.

“She’s here. Born January 7th, 2020 in our little home by the sea,” the woman wrote.

“Her big sister awoke to watch her emerge from my waters and her big brother awoke to meet her early the next morning.

“Our birth journey was sacred.

“Me and Antoine communicated through sound and telepathy for the whole ride and we were so proud of her when she was finally in our arms.

“Welcome to Earth little one. Metta IV (pronounced Metaphor).”

Reddit users left their two cents on the woman’s post in the comments, and some pinpointed things that felt more cringe-worthy than the baby’s actual name.

“Lol, I also communicated by sound while giving birth,” one person wrote.

“Isn’t communicating with sound just … talking?” another questioned.

“‘Emerge from my waters’ … Listen … I’m pretty new agey and woo-woo, but this makes me wanna vomit,” a third said.

“What the f**k kind of drugs is this lady on?”

“Nope nope nope nope nope,” a final person wrote.
