UM-Bot Posted May 19, 2003 #1 Share Posted May 19, 2003 A couple in China have named their baby son Saddam SARS to mark the two important events taking place at the time of his birth, a news report said today. The boy was born on March 20, the day the Iraq war broke out and at a time when alarm over the SARS outbreak was spreading across China. His parents, from Hubei, have named the boy Saddam Deng SARS, the South China Morning Post reported. Deng is the parent's family name.

Loonboy Posted May 19, 2003 #3 Share Posted May 19, 2003 The parents should be shot. It's like being called Hitler Polio! Why couldn't they have named their child after important good events or things rather than horrible ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Althalus Posted May 19, 2003 #6 Share Posted May 19, 2003 When he finds out what he was named after, the child will not like what his parents have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kismit Posted May 19, 2003 #7 Share Posted May 19, 2003 I'm not overly familiar with the way the Chinese familly name works but don't they take the fathers first name as a last name for the child . This thing could go on for at least 2 generations . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted May 20, 2003 #9 Share Posted May 20, 2003 Where is the love when you chose a name that targets your child to all the ridicule he or she will go through? This is shameful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
