is it weird that my sister in law wants to (middle name) her baby after her husband's brother (my…

uh yeah that's weird, because if you wanted to do that you cant.

eeehhh I could see maybe a grandpa or a great grandpa.

well I already can't because he has a son already named after him.

although I was going to give my daughter her aunts middle name (I don't know if that's the same)

right! a grandpa or someone who has passed, maybe to honor the family. but his living 40 yr old brother?

idk exactly how I feel about it, it seems odd to me but I cant say anything about it.

My middle name is my father's sister middle name. I do not find it weird at all. It's how people keep their family linked. it's not like it an ex's child or even a friend.

I don't find that strange. your father's sister. but this is her husband's brother.

It's the samething my mother gave me my father's sister name. just a switch of genders. It will give your husband and his nephew something to bond over. Nothing weird about it.
