This reminds me of an article I read about a guy whose last name was Null.

This isn't it but is the first one I found when looking.

The story is pretty much what you would expect but still an amusing read.

My first kitten was called Rails, but be run away. The second one, Ruby, but she died from sickness the second day we had her home. The third one was Rails 2, but we called him just Rails, he's 10 yo now. The fourth one wad called PowerBI, buy ny wife didn't like and it was a lame name anyway so we changed it to Sushi.

World. Why? "Hello World".

We named our son "Foo Bar" but we used the alternate spelling "Fubar" to make it look more reasonable.

[-] ohholyjesus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

This is a joke, right? Because FUBAR is not something you should name a kid.

If you name her Julia, you can wake her up with the wonderful meme of “Good morning Julia, it’s me, Joe…”
