Parents Name Poor Kid Yahoo
from the a-serious-matter dept
We've already noted that there's a somewhat odd, but growing, trend for parents to name their kids after a brand. It appears a Romanian couple is doing exactly that, and have decided to name their kid Yahoo (no exclamation point, apparently). The reasoning? They met via Yahoo's dating service. Yahoo! (with the exclamation point) should get that family into an ad quickly. Of course, you have to wonder if Yahoo Serious might send out his lawyers.

Misleading
As people generally go by their first names, and only mention their middle names when they have to (or if they hate their first name), I hope this boy's childhood won't be too traumatic.
