Southwest Airlines has apologized for a gate agent who reportedly laughed at a 5-year-old passenger's name — Abcde — all within earshot of the girl and her outraged mother.

The incident unfolded at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, on Nov. 2 when the employee noticed the young passenger's unique name, pronounced "Ab-city," the girl's mother, Traci Redford, told KABC-TV in Los Angeles.

bigger thing here is not the shitty naming or IF the southwest employee was insensitive or rude in the face of an idiotic name

the biggest issue is the attention whore oyster mom, makes it worse for the girl by making this national news

you got an issue with the company, take it up the ladder at the company. No need to put yourself in the lime light at the expense of your child's mental health

So what were they saying about the name? She doesn't say, just that "they were talking about it"

[eidolon]

She will change her name later to Abby (spelled ABE), because she doesn't want the C or the D
