Poll: True Fan or True Moron

[Jagdaddy]

Both. I wouldn't do it, but it's only first and middle names. While it's moronic, its not as moronic as legally changing your own name to Tressel Hayes or Optimus Prime. It's also not as moronic or offensively obnoxious as naming your kid Mister so he can be "respected", Cortona because that's where he was conceived, or Kurvwahsea because you like cognac and can't spell . . . In other words, in today's society this is only in the middle of the moronicity scale.

Fuck that. A true fan would've named their kid "Ohio State". The university is bigger than just one or two people...

Buckeyes fan names son Tressel Hayes

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- An Ohio State fan believed the last names of two Buckeyes football coaches would make the perfect first and middle names for his unborn child.




His wife wasn't so sure.


But Brent Huffines' choice won out. The couple named their newborn son Tressel Hayes "Tressel Hayes Huffines -- sounds as sweet as an OSU victory over Michigan," Brent Huffines, 27, said Sunday while cradling the 3-day-old boy in the neonatal intensive care unit at Ohio State University Medical Center.

My firstborn shall be known as "Shoe."

Would have really sucked if the family's last name was Cooper.

 

[Jagdaddy]

My firstborn shall be known as "Shoe."

He or she will be tough: "My name is Shoe, how do you do?"

He or she will be tough: "My name is Shoe, how do you do?"

During the rebellious teen years, the pronunciation may become "show-ay," but these things have a way of working themselves out.

I think "Michigan Sucks" has a nice ring to it as well. And if your last name is "Cox", well then you should name all your kids "Michigan Sucks"...

Probably a true fan that happens to be a moron. However, there are a lot of kids with worse names, check out this site:

P.S. For about 2 seconds I thought about naming my daughter Sloopy. She is probably real glad I didn't.

I do know a guy with the last name Gray, who always claimed that if he ever had a daughter he would name her Scarlet Ann. When he had a daughter he named her Melissa. :(

But these people are so much fun to laugh at. Plus, Optimus Prime is a pretty cool name.

No, a true fan would have named their kid "The Ohio State".

AT least it isn't Sloopy or Brutus, I guess. I wouldn't name a dog that, let alone a child.

I wonder if diaper-changing sessions are called Hineygate. :p
