Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Jude’s New Name – Nicole’s Sad Reveal Adds to Eric’s Heartbreak

Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers reveal that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) is ready to embrace a fresh start. DOOL fans know EJ insisted “Jude DiMera” (Oliver McLarty) just wouldn’t do, so he plans on selecting a new name for the baby with Nicole DiMera’s (Arianne Zucker) help.

Of course, Nicole pointed out that Jude was a cute name that the baby was already used to, but EJ was adamant about them picking out a new one entirely.

Since this is important to EJ, Nicole eventually agreed to go along with his wishes.

Unfortunately, this could really pour salt in the wound for Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan) and leave him even more heartbroken soon enough.

Days viewers will recall that Eric and Sloan Petersen-Brady (Jessica Serfaty) struggled to settle on a name they both liked.

Eric finally came up with Jude after St. Jude, the patron saint of lost causes, so Sloan ultimately got on board.

There was a time when Eric lost hope on becoming a father, but then Jude came along and fulfilled that dream.

Now that Eric’s daddy status has been ripped away, it’s extra cruel to change Jude’s name, too.

In some ways, it’s like wiping out all those months Eric spent caring for Jude.

Although Nicole would’ve preferred to be raising Jude herself, she knows Eric is a victim and appreciates the way he cared for her little boy.

That said, “Jude” arguably sounds like a free-spirited hippie who’d grow up to do something artsy that EJ wouldn’t approve of.

EJ would no doubt like a more traditional name that’s more appropriate for a DiMera who could take charge of the family business one day.

During the week of June 3-7, Days spoilers say Nicole will have an emotional discussion with Eric – one that could involve broaching the topic off this name change.

Nicole was robbed of the chance to pick her son’s name before, so Eric might offer his blessing on changing it – even if he’s beyond devastated deep down.

This could make the loss feel even more real for Eric, who’s dealing with major heartache after surrendering Jude.

Although Sloan will consider coming clean about Eric being Jude’s bio dad, it doesn’t look like she’ll go through with it.

Of course, EJ is lying about being the father, so he really shouldn’t get a say in all this.

When the whole truth comes out, Nicole will likely go back to calling the little guy “Jude” along with Daddy Eric.

Regardless, our Days predictions point to EJ facing some consequences for his deception sooner or later!

Days of Our Lives spoilers say some curveballs are still to come for Eric and Nicole, so stay tuned for updates on their reaction to the true paternity news.
