Pathetic...

 

[bavman]

WTF? is this real? Who the hell does this to their children?

 

[kingnoobe]

I could see siri, but the rest.. Apple/google.. Come on now think of the kids! If you want your kid to have something stupid in it's name at least make it the middle name.

Let's not forget the Egyptian dad that named his daughter "Facebook" in honor of their uprising which didn't turn out so well.

It's things like this that I wish there was some way we could remove these people from the gene pool (without having to kill them).

If you are going to name your child after a product, then you aren't ready to bear children.

 

[bllue]

Those kids named Apple are gonna get so much crap 10-15 years from now when Apple will no longer be relevant lol

 

[steve360]

Also, good luck to these kids trying to land jobs with oddball names on their CVs.

so if my baby mamma decided our child should be named Excel.. and he decided to change it later in life.. wouldn't his nick name be XXL? bwahahaha

Is Zak Islam paid to write and build apple brand?

 

[fonzy]

I wouldn't be surprised if Apple sued them or even worse try and claim their children as their own.

There's probably something about that in those EULAs that no one reads...

They shouldn't waste mental resources and time to research for something that obvious

That or he has stock in Apple.

This is why applying for a license before people have a child should be mandatory.

 

[bustapr]

google and apple are going to be bullied for life...

 

[MisterZ]

Apple are a joke. I'm naming my 3 sons i3, i5, and i7.

 

[mrmez]

I guess its better than naming your baby Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, or Surface.

 

[JOSHSKORN]

My kids will have the initials LGA and BGA, guess I'd better change my last name, as well.

ZIF might be good initials for a daughter. Giggity!

But seriously, why are these people having children?

 

[Kami3k]

And such parents need to have their kids taken away from them, Google, Apple, etc are not names for a human being to actually have....

These people are mentally unstable and I fear for the kids...

 

[buckcm]

This is better than naming all of your sons George.

 

[billgatez]

Reminds me of the hippies in the 60's that named there kids rainbow, and flower.

 

[Devoteicon]

HELLO LAWSUITS!!!!

"That said, it's proved to be an increasingly common name in Norway, where it means "beautiful victory"."

Siri? If you put it into japanese it's しり, which means "butt." Sure it could mean beautiful victory, or it could mean ass. I mean... that's if you have to look to different languages to try to rationalize the stupid names parents give kids because of overpriced products...
