Good to see NZ has its share of weird and strange people.

Poor kid! I always wished I had had the nerve to call my kids 'Doctor' or 'Professor' to give them a head start in life!

He is sure going to have an image to keep up! Makes our idea of Cosmo look pretty tame......

I was listening to an interview with the parents on the radio a couple of months ago while they were still battling for 4Real. They said they wanted to give him an advantage in life by giving him a different name! The interviewer was asking how having such a ridiculous name could possibly give him an advantage, but he wasn't having any of it.

Haven't a couple in Sweden recently named their child 'Metallica'? In fact I think a Swedish couple also recently named their child 'Superman' - must be popular. What about Jordan's recent name choice for her daughter then? Princess!!

I wondered what happened to this story. It was on Close Up (a newsy current affair programme on TV One @ 7 for those still abroad) a few months ago. The father was an real estate agent and they'd already got names planned for the future kids, the last one would have been called 4Sure, from what I could remember.

You can search for the story on NZ Herald (www.nzherald.co.nz)...
