Bride left horrified after discovering the incredibly dark meaning behind her married initials

When naming your child, you're conscious that you don't want their initials to spell out something they could be bullied for.

I've had a child so I know the thought process, you don't want to call them a nice name like Richard in case they're called Dick at school, or Tucker because it rhymes with... well, you get the point.

These are things parents have control of and can look out for, but once you marry and agree to take someone else's second name - that's when unfortunate acronyms can come about, which is exactly what has happened to one bride.

'Unfortunate' might not be the right word for this influencer, who took to TikTok to share her new initials.

She captioned the video: "What I tell people what my initials after wedding will be."

It's only when you go on her profile that you realize the issue.

Her first name is Kathryn, middle name is Keller, you can probably see where this is going already, her husband's second name is Keith.

So upon marrying him this year, she took on his surname and so her full name is now Kathryn Keller Keith.

I mean talk about bad luck, I think she could now be donning the darkest initials of all time.

They spell out KKK and sadly, many of us will know what that stands for - the notorious name for the the Ku Klux Klan.

For those not in the know, the KKK signifies numerous American white supremacist, far-right terrorist organizations and hate groups that date back to the 1800s.

Kathryn then felt the need to qualify in a follow-up video that she has absolutely no connection to the white supremacist group.

"I'm obviously not affiliated with them at all, it's just a very unfortunate circumstance," she said.

"I'm thinking to change my middle name but I don't even know what I should change to - there are so many options."

Users online came to the rescue suggesting some alternative names.

One wrote back on the social media platform: "If middle name is Keller, what about Ellery or Elle to keep as many letters similar as possible?"

Now, I know they're trying to help but I'm pretty sure KEK is an alternative for crap, you know the saying 'kek your pants'... but I guess it's better than being named after a racist organization.

Kathryn replied: "Ok wait, I love this. This might be my favourite idea. I hadn't thought of that."

But personally I don't think she would need to change her name, it's clear she is not a member of the Klu Klux Klan.
