I am ROTFLMAO at my In-laws...

Original post by JimmysBride

So we found out yesterday that we are having a boy. I sent an E-mail to my MIL, SILs, & FIL saying that it was a boy and that his name would be:

Aguacate Trujillo Fidel Jake Elwood Commonlastname

I thought it was pretty obvious that it was a joke. Yes, I am Latina, but come on!! Don't you think that's just a TAD too long of a name to be real???? And Aguacate means AVOCADO in Spanish!!! If you didn't know that, Fidel had to clue you in!!

This is the E-mail I get back from my MIL:


You will have to give me a Spanish lesson so I can properly pronounce my
grandson's name. Is it after your Uncle???



NO- I DON'T HAVE AN UNCLE NAMED AVOCADO!!!


And from my SIL:


Now, I am sorry to show my ignorance but how do you pronounce the first name? I know how to say the rest I am just stuck on the first name. Sorry! Also...what is the meaning/history of the names?


Oh God... tears are coming out of my eyes people... I am PIMP!!!

Such a cute story! That's one you'll tell avocado when he is older... (and when you can all sit around and laugh at MIL and SIL)

did you tell them yet that it was a joke?

I would have loved to see the expression on their faces. I have to hand it to them, they were very diplomatic.

Congratulations on baby Avocado by the way.

You have fabulous in-laws! You should give them major kudos for being non-judgemental and supportive. Of course now you just have to hope that when you tell them the real name that they don't think you are kidding!
