Someone should put this kid outta his misery

Its the 4reals parents again!

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - A New Zealand couple is looking to call their newborn son Superman -- but only because their chosen name of 4Real has been rejected by the government registry.

Pat and Sheena Wheaton say they will get around the decision by the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages by officially naming their son Superman but referring to him as 4Real, the New Zealand Herald newspaper has reported.

The Wheatons decided on the name after seeing the baby for the first time in an ultrasound scan and realising their baby was "for real".

They decided 4Real was the best way to write it, but the name was rejected because the registrar said a name had to be a sequence of characters.

Pat Wheaton said he was considering appealing against the decision through the courts, but whatever happens he won't be budged on his choice.

"No matter what its going to stay 4Real," Wheaton told the Herald, "I'm certainly not a quitter".

A spokesman for the Department of Internal Affairs, which operates the registry told the Herald discussions with the Wheatons about their son's name were continuing.

The baby is now two months old, after the Wheatons first applied to register his name in later June.

I will pay someone to kill thouse parents

I propose having the right to change your name when your 21! And if it's a really bad name or one that really is just made up to humiliate you: a lot sooner.DirkVDV01

I don't know where you live, but in the States you can change your name as soon as you're 18. You have to pay a processing fee, but there's no law against having your name changed.

Is their daughter called Wonder Woman?

Do you ever have one of those days you thought it would be a good idea to require a liscense for having children. They make you get one before marriage but they don't do anything to prevent you from totally ruining a child's life. That make sense to you/?

can somebody explain to me what was wrong with forreal???

That's bizarre. What country do you live in? I know in Canada, you can legally change your name any time and at any age, but before 18 you need your parent to do it for you. I think there is also a fee associated with it like the US as well.
