More Fun: Baby Google is Born

No, really. An SEO guy in Germany and his amazingly agreeable wife named their baby "Google." Guess he'll be able to say his name earlier than most kids, anyway!

Search-Crazy Swedes Name Baby "Google"

By Gregg Keizer, TechWeb News

A couple in Sweden have slapped the middle name "Google" on their newborn son, the search giant said Tuesday on its official blog.

Lebanese-born Walid Elias Kai, who works for a search optimization company, and his Swedish wife, Carol Kai, named their boy, born Sept. 12, "Oliver Google Kai."

Kai, who posted photos of young Google on a Web site, claims to be a Google fan. Really.

"We wish him long life and good health, and hope his schoolmates aren't too hard on him," wrote Karen Wickre, of the Google blog group, on the site.
