It’s a good thing the baby’s first name isn’t Google |
Unlike the parents who named their child’s first name ESPN, at least the Kai’s made their new baby’s middle name Google — Oliver Google Kai — to be precise, via googleblog:
About this choice, Dr. Kai writes, “When we first knew that my wife Carol is pregnant, I said, ‘we will name our child Google.’ Everyone laughed and did not take me seriously. My brother said, ‘Yeah, name the next one yahoo fuji nikon.” And then, says Dr. Kai, the day came to make the baby official in the Swedish Registry. “I was with my friend Magnus Foss and my wife Carol, and I said yes, GOOGLE KAI. Carol knew how serious I am – she knows how much I adore Google services.”
Talk about an Oliver with a twist. This isn’t cool, parents, really it’s not. Don’t name your babies after products, services or websites. No Hmm babies, please!

Reminds me of the soviet times in USSR when way too enthousiastic people named their kids “Revolution”, “Social competition”, “…”. Sounded very ugly then and very funny (or not?) 30 years later.
