Couple names child "Metallica"

2007-03-26 by NeverFading14 | 47 Comments
A couple from Sweden have won the right to name their seven-month old daughter "Metallica." After filing the name, a tax angency "objected," saying it was inappropriate because it was a band name. The parents have appealed this decision to the District Court, which ruled in their favor, with only one member of the jury objecting.

The name is apparently a combination of the parents' firstnames and not necessarily because they are big 'Tallica fans.

Have you guys ever seen the movie 'Idocrisy' by Mike Judge. I think the plot premise of this movie is coming true in that stupid people breed more than intellignent people and the stupid people are slowly taking over the world. Here is proof of that!

I love that fucking movie.

Well, you could do worse. You could name your child Hawthorne Heights. Of course, then you would inevitably have your own child's blood on your hands when they eventually commit suicide to escape the shame.

Well, this wouldn't be exactly like Office Space, Michael Bolton was named Michael Bolton before the singer became popular (he says so in the movie).

"Why don't you change your name?"
"Why should I change my name? He's the one that sucks"

It'll take some effort, but when I eventually get married, I'll somehow talk my wife into naming our firstborn son either Ash or Brisco, after two of Bruce Campbell's coolest characters.

"One question, though: Why name your child Metallica?"
"Here's a question for you: Shut up."
"That's not a question."
"You're not a question."
"... Fuck this."

Sucks to be this kid. I'd rather be named "Anita Coch" or "Ben Dover" or "Johnson Clymer"
Funny thing is Anita and Johnson up there go to my school...

Hahaha a few of my friends nicknamed me Opeth and eventually Micro Akerfeldt because of my overt Opeth fanboyism (and because of my short height )
