OH MY GOD Mum reveals reason for unique baby name and is immediately humbled as people point out embarrassing mistake
PICKING a name for your little one can be an incredibly difficult task as you want to make sure you choose for something unique, but not so out there that your child gets picked on.
Some people opt to name their child after a family member, whilst others choose to name their offspring after a favourite book or film character.

People spotted a 'mistake' with a unique baby name

And your baby is stuck with this decision for life, so it's important you get it right.
Which is why people have been left stunned by a simple spelling mistake that ruins a 'unique' meaning.
Taking to Reddit, one person revealed the blunder after somebody asked what the most 'out there' spelling of a common name they'd seen.
They said: "I know two separate people who have kids named Neveah, spelled ending in 'ah' and both say 'it's heaven backwards!

"No… it's not…"
Meanwhile, somebody else wrote: "Yep I know two of these and the whole reason they were named this is because of the 'heaven backwards' thing. I don't think they realise Heaven isn't spelled haeven."
To correctly nail the angelic name, the correct spelling should be 'Nevaeh'.
In Scotland, 13 babies were given the heavenly name in 2024. But, perhaps unsurprisingly, there were no babies named Neveah in the same year.

And some social media users have been left stunned by the name blunder as one questioned: "How do I rename somebody else's child?"
Someone else fumed: "If you aren't responsible enough to name a kid, you shouldn't have a kid!"
I'm trolled over my kids' unique names - even the midwife questioned my choice
But a third person did admit: "Omfg i just realised it's not if it's spelled like that… i feel so dumb LMAO."
It comes after people begged to "rename somebody else's child" after a baby's unique name was revealed.

The moniker ended up raising eyebrows for all the wrong reasons thanks to its slightly shortened version.
So what's the name, you might ask.
It's Paige, but with a twist - namely that it is actually spelt "Paij".

The original poster said: "I have a friend whose name is spelled Paij.
"Her mum has actually apologised (in good fun) and said she was high on pain meds and just made a rash decision.
"Whenever she has to spell it, she ends with 'And yes I know it's stupid.' Poor girl!"

Mind-boggling photo of a messy room has a cat hidden in the carnage - can you find it in under 30 seconds?
An infuriating Reddit brain-teaser forced people to come face to face with one of life's age-old predicaments: finding something in a messy room. User Peach_Cartoon uploaded the photo to Reddit's r/ Find the Sniper thread, which challenges participants to find items hidden in plain sight. The photo prompts viewers to find the creator's cat hidden in a mountain of clothes, shoes, laundry and toys, piled in front of a pink closet. To make it even more difficult, the poster tells partakers to 'ignore my messy room', to most efficiently complete the task. The post, although it was labeled 'Easy,' had Reddit users stumped. Now, it's your turn. See if you can pull your focus away from the carnage and chaos of a messy room in order to find the photographer's adorable, but well hidden cat. Better yet, do it in 30 seconds or less. How did you do? Did you, like some Reddit commenters, get distracted by the messy room? No matter how much the poster pleaded you not to? 'I will not ignore the messy room. Gross,' said one commenter on the post. Or, were you, like others too distracted by the cat itself to remember your answer? 'None of my cats have ever opened their mouths like this one' 'WHY DOES HE LOOK SO SCARY,' another wrote. Best case scenario, you found yourself like one of the skilled online pros, and found the kitty without a hitch. 'Super easy...' 'I found the cat right away but only cuz on zoomed in on something else that I thought was the cat and the cat was behind it,' another poster said. In case you still haven't located it, take a look beneath the pink organizer hanging on the closet door. Then shift your eyes a little to the left. Hidden in the shadows behind a white bag, is the white, spotted cat. The feline appears to be making a shocked face, which attracted the attention of many of the participants. In reality, its owner says: 'She has a little black spot under her mouth so she looks perpetually surprised.'

Small English market town on the edge of the Cotswolds that tourists forget about – despite being in two huge TV shows
Plus, the nearby city that is home to a hit Netflix period series PICTURE PERFECT Small English market town on the edge of the Cotswolds that tourists forget about – despite being in two huge TV shows Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TUCKED away in Wiltshire is a historic market town used as a backdrop for famous TV series starring Aidan Turner and David Tennant. Corsham in Wiltshire has once again been turned into a TV backdrop, but it still isn't the most popular spot in the Cotswolds. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Corsham in Wiltshire has cobbled cottages and is used for filming TV shows Credit: Alamy 5 David Tennant was recently spotted filming scenes for Netflix's Rivals Credit: Alamy The Cotswolds town has cobbled stone cottages, grand country manors and a quaint high street full of independent shops. Its old-fashioned look makes it the perfect backdrop for period dramas - which is why it's been used by two separate productions. The cast of Rivals have most recently returned to Corsham according to the BBC with stars like David Tennant, Emily Atack and Danny Dyer returning to the town. In the high street, the shop fronts have been tweaked to appear in the time period of the late 1980s. The local Boots has been turned into an old-fashioned Waitrose and the town hall has been transformed into a polling station. Classic cars have also been seen lining the streets to give the impression of the 1980s. This isn't the first time that Corsham has seen A-list actors in its streets, it was where half of Poldark was filmed. Corsham was transformed into 18th century Truro when Aidan Turner, dressed as Captain Ross Poldark, came to the town. During this time, there were horses in the streets, cattle and even sheep. The Flemish Weaves pub was the base for the leading actors, while the extras ended up staying at the Town Hall.

Around the town there are peacocks that roam the streets freely. Their actual home is in Corsham Court, but they do sometimes head into the town too. There are plenty of extravagant places too including Corsham Court. The privately owned stately home has a huge art collection, there are also huge gardens - which you can explore for a fee of £12.50. Another is 23 Pickwick which is a Grade II listed country home in Corsham - and you can even book it out. It has a sweeping staircase, an open fire and sash windows. The cottage is a short drive away from the Georgian Spa town of Bath, which features in many of the outdoor scenes in Bridgerton. The city of Bath is just a 30-minute drive, which is where parts of the Bridgerton series were filmed, and it's the only UNESCO site in the country. In Corsham is also home to The Pound Arts theatre where locals regularly put on performances. There are also comedy shows, busking and showings of films. Here's a Bridgerton-like manor that you can stay in with all your mates in the UK - with its own lake and cinema room. And Sun Travel visited the tiny English village you can only visit once a year.
