A COUPLE in Sweden has named their new-born son "Google", reportedly because the baby's father is a search fan.

The healthy baby boy, born on September 12 this year, was christened "Google Kai" by his father who coincidentally, has a doctorate in search-engine marketing.
According to father Walid Kai, a Ph.D. in search engine marketing from Kalmar in Sweden, the name came to him as soon as he found out his wife Carol was pregnant.

"When we first knew that my wife Carol is pregnant, I said, 'we will name our child Google,'" wrote Walid in an email to who else, but Google. "Everyone laughed and did not take me seriously. My brother said, 'Yeah, name the next one Yahoo Fuji Nikon."

Walid had a small amount of trouble with disbelieving officials at the Kai's local birth registry, but he soon won them over. "I said 'Yes, GOOGLE KAI'. Carol knew how serious I am, she knows how much I adore Google services."

this is something very crazy and weird. You adore google alright but naming your child after it no joke. A name is what a person carries with him to grave. It have a significant impact on peronna of a individual. Imagine a scenario

google and msn fighting each other in park and altavista mediating.

Wow talk about obsession! I am obsessed with a lot of things to the point where people think that I am kind of insane but I would never name my child after something just because I like it.

all what is happening is that child is being turned into OBJECT of curosity by parents. They are cashing on it by starting blogs and websites.

The more i think about it more disgraceful act it seems to me.

Who would name their kid "google"? I know I wouldn't. The parents probably did it to get a ton of attention from everyone. (Obviously they suceeded because everyone knows about it)
