Re: Is it wrong to give your baby a tribal name if you're not from that tribe?
If J is of Aztec descent and the father of K's child, why couldn't his kid receive an Aztec name? It might be cultural appropriation if K's child had no relationship with Aztec culture, but according to you 50% of the kid's heritage is Aztec. On a side note, J is extremely disrespectful to you. Since K's baby isn't your child, you may not have the right to name them, but J could have expressed that in a way that wasn't belittling. If J frequently resorts to name name-calling and degrading language in order to assert some kind of dominance over you, please look into verbal and emotional abuse.

No J not Abuse I like this dominance.He was just trying to tell me K's kid not mine so don't worry.
Healthy dominance stuff does not include calling your partner an idiot for voicing an opinion you disagree with.
