I'm sure the kid will really appreciate it from the ages of about 5 to 15.

I love how it mentions he spent the better part of 2 months convincing his wife to name their son that. Among me and my friends, it's been a running gag that I am going to have to spend a long time convincing my future wife to allow our first son to be named "Og".

My best friend Nick (aka SOH_Boaknight aka Minoen) was going to be named Zebulon Cruthers Sexton. I would've been his best friend and his worst enemy. MWAHAHAHA... but v.2 isn't bad. At least he's not being called .0002 or something. That means they still don't have it right and they're gonna keep trying... *shudder*

I'm getting my named changed as soon as I turn 18. and that's nothing.. I have a decent common name. It just so happends it's an english name and I live in a french-speaking area, so everyone deformed it horribly and it got incredibly irritating. I can't imagine how much worse it must be to have a name like anakin, khan, or 2.0. For the love of kak, GIVE YOUR CHILDREN DECENT NAMES. Else they will hate you forever.

Um, the kid's name is Jon Blake Cusack 2.0. Not just 2.0. The artice just refers to him as 2.0.

My full name is Christopher Willam Powell II, but no one has ever referred to me as "II". I always just write my name as Chris Powell, anyways. Besides, when the kid is growing up, he probably won't understand what it means, and it's not like he's going to go running around telling everybody his full name. You're all over-reacting, like a parent giving their child a name is a bad thing.

I certainly hope to have a Terry J. Hinch II one day. And as pointed out, they aren't going to be calling him "2". I should name one of my kids Q...that'd be cool, maybe he'll grow up and use his powers to tourment Starfleet Captains.

I like my first name, Terry. I, however, don't like when people call me "Terrence" because that isn't my name at all. My given name was Terry, it's not short for anything...my friends have all learned the hard way that calling me that other name earns them a stabbing with my car key.

At least they didn't name their kid "Iamastar" (I-am-a-Star) like this one woman my mother knew named her daughter. Boy... that must be a horrid name to have. Imagine if the kid doesn't become a star. That's one serious oxymoron for a name then!

BTW... my sister wants name her child "Titus" if she has a son. Personally, while it's nice she is naming her children Biblical names, Titus is a name that anyone can easily make fun of. I personally am thinking of harassing the kid and call him "Tighty Whitey", hehe! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

What I dont get is people who name their kids with virtually the same last name as first name. Like there used to be a V8 race car driver out here called Dougal McDougal. I mean why the fudge would you name your kid Dougal if your last name is McDougal? And what the hell kind of name is Dougal anyways? Perplexing.
