The concept of kids naming parents should begin.

No this is a dumb idea. If this were to happen I would have been Gaston Batman at age 5.

And now?....Gaston Batman.

It's fine the way it is. You can legally change it if it bugs you that much. It's not a big deal.

pretty much.

I'm sorry are you arguing against this idea or not Mr. Batman?

 

[Thoraxes]

It'll happen when we get rid of social security.
That's when it happening will be very possible... So probably in like 8 years.

 

[cevansdust]

4 or 5?

Can't wait to meet Spaceman Zod Brady 10 years from now.

Bad idea in general.

My thoughts exactly. If xbox live is any indication then few people reserve the right to name themselves.

I could link to the story when a Norwegian kid asked the king to change it's name to "Sonic X" but... ah whatever, here you go

 

[KittenMaster]

I would get my name the same way Trowa Barton did.

My wife and I are expecting our first child in January, and I'm surprised we chose a name so easily. We had a list of boy and girl names we liked, and decided the middle name will be after one of our recently passed grandparents. You're name doesn't define you, so waiting just doesn't make any sense.

Anyways, we decided on Logan so you can just guess what his first Halloween costume will be.

On a tangent: I have IRL friends that i don't actually know what their birth names are. I just know them by their forum nicks/chosen internet names. I know a Charlie Darling, a Trent End and a Gypsy Road, i've known them for years and never actually had the need to know their real names.

I think this will be a lot more common.

I would have been Rainbow Brite. Or possibly Stormy Rainbow Brite.

Funny, the Ainu people kind of used to do the same thing with their children.

THIS WOULD BE AMAZING. I am certain that my early relationship with my little brother would have been much, much better if everyone had been calling him "Shitling" until he was three.

 

[Cubsfan23]

Yeah let's have blank birth certificates. Great idea.

I am going to name my twins Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Why the fuck not. The next generations is going to be filled with nothing but "Aidens", "Jaidens", and "Kaidens" anyway. Numbers would be more individualistic.

Kinda reminds me of the sci-fi story where kids were named by a computer. Not as numbers but as the proper amount of vowels and constanants strung together. The person living in that society explained that such a name had more individuality to it because each was unique to a person.

I had a cousin who had a feminine sounding name that he hated. So when he was old enough, he legally changed it. To the name of the character he RP'ed in D&D. It was not a normal sounding name. It threw me for a loop for the longest time.

Until your kid chooses Peepee Poopyhead and the whole thing falls apart.

 

[SpectreFire]

Until your kid chooses Peepee Poopyhead and the whole thing falls apart.

Or to "Daddy touches me in places every night".

A coworker of mine knew someone that let their daughter chose her middle name at around 5-7 years old. Her middle name is now Dracula.

:lol I'd honestly have so much respect for you if you did.
