MHO: Not only does this kid have an embarrassing new name, but he also gets on the front page of cnn.com for it. Naming your kid like software? Get off the computer and get outside!
PS: I wonder if I could make the front page of cnn.com if I gave my kid an outlandish name, like C***face or StealThisBaby.
Stupid names like this should be considered child abuse.
I don’t see what’s “embarrasing” about it, or why it’s “child abuse”. It is a silly name, but it’s certiantly unique. Personally, I think it would be kind of cool to have a “software” name.
Unique, emekthian? It’s his dad’s name.
So he’s gone with an Arabic/decimal notation instead of the conventional Roman numeral appendage that’s traditionally used when fathers are too unimaginative or egotistical to give their sons their own names.
Big deal.
I wonder if their next boy, should they have one, would be named Jon Blake Cusack 2.1 or Jon Blake Cusack 3.0?
I think 2.0 would be more upset to find out that he was a beta version.
“Don’t make come up there and patch you!”
Well we already have a Mr. Jackson that is version 3.28
When he’s potty trained, does he become Jon Cusack 2.1?
He should look on the bright side - at least he isn’t “Moon Unit” or “Dweezil”. </damn hippes mode> 
Larry, Euty, sublight
It’s bad enough he named the kid after himself. Adding 2.0 on the end is just sad.
Alright, if I ever have a kid, I’m naming it StealThisBaby. That’s too funny to pass up.
True story. In the immortal words of Dave Barry, I swear I am not making this up.
My uncle, a police officer in my town, pulled over a car full of kids several years ago. He walked up to the door, signalled for them to pull down the window, and promptly recieved a giant spitwad on his shirt. The culprit, a miserable little jerk by the name of Rob, was known to my uncle for several reasons: a) he was a cull, and this was not his first run in with the law, and b) he is the sheepish possessor of a rather unique name, which my uncle happens to know, since Rob was taught for several years at a local high school by my father (it’s a small town).
Now, Rob, being the unenlightened little twit that he is, began to spout obscenities, heresies and other vulgar literal combinations. My uncle merely smiled, chuckled softly to himself, and said, “So Rob, do these fine gentlemen of your acquaintance know exactly what Rob stands for?”
At this point, our protagonist clammed right up, behaved very properly and drove away with his ticket.
At birth, ROB was given the unfortunate moniker of “Repent or Burn.”
I am NOT making this up.
