Is It a Bird? Is It a Plane? No, It's a Baby


WELLINGTON (Aug. 8) - A New Zealand couple is looking to call their newborn son Superman -- but only because their chosen name of 4Real has been rejected by the government registry.

When I saw this, I immediately thought of this community haha.
Poor kid, his parents are setting him up for a lifetime of ridicule.
Not to mention he's always going to feel inadequate because he won't have super strength and the ability to fly.

what the HELL is wrong with them?
I love Superman, he's one of my obsessions, but the closest I'd get to Superman is naming a child Clark or Kent.

Are his parents 6 or something? Why do they keep insisting on naming their child something ridiculous? Geez. And he's so cute.

The parents need rehab, because they are appearently on dope.

That's just pathetic. I feel so sorry for the baby.

This is the third time I've seen this "news" in this community. Enough already.

"Not to mention he's always going to feel inadequate because he won't have super strength and the ability to fly."

Best take on this story ever.

Why don't they just name him Bogan and get it over with?
