A woman is sparking debate by sharing the baby name of an expectant mother inspired by a nuclear disaster.
Posted in the “r/tragedeigh” forum on Reddit, a user shared a photo of a baby shower invite, captioning the post “I’m speechless.”
“Please join us for a baby shower,” reads the pink invite, showing clip art of balloons, a star, moon, and an elephant.

“Join us to celebrate the upcoming arrival of a little bundle of joy! In honor of: Chernobyl Hope,” the invite reveals.
The name reflects the deadly 1986 Ukraine nuclear accident that took place at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Ukraine was under the control of the communist Soviet Union at the time, and the disaster took place at a plant built by the Soviets. Ukraine declared its independence in 1991.
The Chernobyl tragedy released radioactive material into the atmosphere, making the city an exclusion zone, killing an estimated 31 people.
The mom-to-be’s post garnered over thirty-two thousand reactions with thousands of Redditors taking to the comment section to discuss.
