British TikTok couple Liana Jade and Connor Darlington named their eight-month-old baby boy Koazy, pronounced Cozy. However, Liana recently became aware of an episode of \u2018The Unplanned Podcast\u2018 by couple Matt and Abby Howard, in which they discussed unusual baby names. While the podcasters didn\u2019t mention Koazy by name, they deemed unusual monikers \u201cridiculous\u201d and \u201cout of control.\u201d Abby said it was a \u201cred flag\u201d to give a child a name that doesn\u2019t already exist, and added that \u201cit might not be the flex you think it is.\u201d The couple left the comments section of their video open, which enabled others to blast Liana and Connor\u2019s choice. As a result, Liana took to TikTok to address the backlash and explain why she named her baby Koazy. TikToker in tears over backlash to baby\u2019s name The teary-eyed young mom said she was aware the name wouldn\u2019t be everyone\u2019s \u201ccup of tea,\u201d but she thought it\u2019s \u201ccruel\u201d to allow people who don\u2019t like her baby\u2019s name to \u201crip at it.\u201d \u201cPeople have said we called him Koazy because he was cosy in the womb,\u201d she said. \u201cBut no. It was a name we already had and as I was getting so heavily pregnant, people were saying \u2018he\u2019s so cosy in your belly.\u2019 It confirmed to us that is what we should name him\u2026 we were like \u2018Oh my God, it\u2019s meant to be\u2019.\u201d Liana also revealed that opening the comments to allow others to mock their baby name had \u201creally upset\u201d her. \u201cEveryone is entitled to their own opinion. But it\u2019s just different when there\u2019s this comment section open on such a big influencer\u2019s video of people, fully grown adults, just sat there slandering my baby\u2019s name. \u201cI think it\u2019s quite cruel \u2013 and if I had posted that video personally, I think I would have been very mindful of who was being named and how that can have an effect on other people.\u201d Fans of Liana quickly flooded the comment section, telling her they loved the unique name. \u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful name and it is YOUR baby\u2019s name, he suits it so much,\u201d one wrote. \u201cAwh don\u2019t cry we all love the name Koazy,\u201d another said.
