She explained: "I was joined on to a ‘mummy’ group on Facebook and lots of it is people posting pictures of their ‘gawjus bubs’ and asking advice.

"A woman posted pictures of her twin sons from their newborn photo shoot with the caption ‘my gorgeous boys Ronnie and Reggie’.
"Now [am I being unreasonable] to think it’s really strange to give your sons the same names as the Kray twins? There were lots of comments along the lines of ‘After the Krays?? Love it!! So cute!!’"

She went on explain that with all the horrific violence and organised crime associated with the famous brothers, that she didn't see them as the right role models for the tiny tots.

It appeared she wasn't the only person outraged by the odd choice of name.

And another added: "I just think people are mind numbingly stupid, IQ's of sweet potatoes."

And another wrote: "I know a woman who called her youngest Kray. Nickname Kray Kray."

While another added: "I once met a set of twins called Bonnie and Clyde."
