The fucking kid's name is "Kal-El."
Yeah, "Kal-El."
This is almost as stupid as Penn Jillette naming his daughter "Moxie Crimefighter."
Just so fucking idiotic that I had to vent. Celebrities are such assholes.

welcome to 2 weeks ago.
U R TEH SLOWZOR
secondly, when you have a comic collection as big as Cage, this is to be expected. for god's sake just because he's an actor doesnt mean he's not a nerd.
I didn't hear about it 2 weeks ago, or I would have made the thread then. Maybe. I was busier 2 weeks ago than I am now.Quote:

I'm going to name my first born Street Fighter II.
Mine will be Final Fantasy.
Moxie Crimefighter Jillette isn't so bad.
How about Moon Unit Zappa?
I'm naming my first son Bender.
I'm going to name my kid after Ollie Queen.
Or, Ken Masters.
Even Ken Masters (x) wouldn't be that bad.
Kefka.
And the winner is................................................................................... ..................... Pilot Inspektor Riesgraf Lee. WTF?!?! Jason Lee is funny as hell but what a fucking idiot to name his child that.
Isn't Jason Lee a scientologist?
That's the one I always pull out since hearing it in the mid 80s. That guy was fucking whacked out of his mind.Quote:

A friend of mine is named Kal-El. There is nothing wrong with that. His dad worked in comics, Cage is a big comics fan, it's understandable. And if the kid takes heat, you can call him "Kal" and it's no big deal.
Then again, I can't talk. If I ever have a son, his first and middle names will be "Hans Gruber."
Moon Unit is the best name I've ever heard, and probably the only celebrity name that doesn't piss me off.
Master. Chief.
I'm going to second the Kefka and open up it with Sephiroth.
Don't put your kid through that.Quote:

My first born will definitely be named Super (My First Name) (My Last Name) II Turbo: The Hyper Fighting.
Cid, anyone?Quote:

Super fowl mouthed pilot who can pilot airships(+)
Leader of a montessori school of mercenaries
Some indescribable creature that use to be king
Some crazy terrorist type person with the worse voice actor in the history of the world (well.. save for Naruto).
The choice is yours!
I knew there was one I was forgetting. Handy name to have if the child does indeed prusue a career in the pilot inspecting (inspekting?) field, but otherwise Jason Lee should be anally raped. By a gorilla.Quote:

His nerdy rival will have the nickname, "Brainiac".
His boss's name will be Perry.
And his girlfriend's name is Bruce.
Isn't the name copyrighted?
The name Superman is copyrighted, but Kal-El is not.Quote:

The lead singer of Korn named his son Pirate. I think the mom is a pornstar, I'm not sure who Davis is with right now and I can't recall her name anyway.
It would also be cool to name a kid after a title, like 'Doctor' for example.
That way, there'd be no need to send the kid to university.
Shit, why not name the kid 'President' or 'Chief Justice' for that matter.
Damnit, I was going to do that.Quote:

Yeah, if your name doesn't sound like some sort of genital euphemism or bodily function you're pretty set. But kids are pretty inventive, they'll think of something
No, what you meant to say was that kids are really really really really really fucking stupid, and can often times be really really really really fucking bored.
I've had kids make fun of my middle name. My middle name is George. I know what you are thinking "how the fuck does someone make fun of the name "George?"
They would say it in a retard like voice, think "whats eating gilbert grape."
So yeah, if kids want to be dicks, they will. They don't have to be clever or smart.
Umm... You see there was this book by John Steinbeck... Ahh, forget it.Quote:

And to think I used to feel that Talula Belle (sp?), Hunter, Rumour and Scout were really bad names.
Some model/former DJ named her kid Audio Science.
I've also had a jones to punch Rob Morrow in the face for naming his daughter Tu.
Toni Braxton named one of her sons denim. Ghetto fab stupid there.
Oh yeah, Moxie Crimefighter is the worst. Penn needs a good kick to his jaw for that one.
edit:I stand corrected. :sweat:Quote:
Pilot Inspektor Riesgraf Lee.
What next, an 80s gen celeb naming their kids after Nintendo characters? "Hi this is Mary Hart from ET, tonight we visit the home of _________ celebrity where we also get to see his family life with sons Luigi and Mario, daughter peach and his delightful bulldog Bowser. Please don't sue us if my painfully fake smile and ear drum searing voice enduces a seizure or earth shattering aneurism!"
edit: But hey, Marina would be a pretty normal sounding name for a girl even if it's a Treasure reference.
Call me crazy, but I have my doubts that I was being made fun of in middle school by a bunch of "Of Mice and Men" fans.Quote:

we had to read of mice and men in 5th or 6th grade I think 6th and we watched the movie, so I could see easily how you would have been being made fun of by people who knew about Of Mice and Men in middle schoolQuote:

The thing was nothing but one huge cop out on the school district to get out of ever being sued.Quote:

Id name my kid, Juggernaut.
Juggernaut. You could always pretend that it was your wife's idea after an unusually painful delivery procedure. :D
My friend Nixhex311 would probably name his Gambit. Which actually does sound pretty cool, I have to admit.
Screw you guys, being named Kal El is cool. Seriously, if I was named after Superman, I'd feel frickin' badass. Plus, if anyone disrespected me, I could be all like "watch your mouth, fool - my dad knows Sean Connery and he'll get him to come kick your ass."
