Ok, naming your kids after yourself is sure way to guarantee your kid will be in counseling later in life, but this kid is going to have real problems. According to Fox News, Jon Blake Cusack decided to name his kid Jon Blake Cusack 2.0. He probably though it was a cute idea or some way he or his kid could be different. Unfortunately, on the playground, being just means you get you get your ass kicked. Moreover, when you name your kid after yourself, everyone including the kid gets the impression that the jr. is supposed be the little copy of the dad. When picks his own path, everyone’s disappointed. Not only is this kid going to be expected to follow in his father’s foot steps, he’s really going to be expected to be a little geek. Can you imagine what would happen when this kid worked for a law firm, what would his cards say. Running for public office is totally going to be out of the question. “Yes, I’m version 2.0 and I want to be your next congress man!” Doesn’t really work now does it?
Why can’t we just give our kids their own name. If you want to name your kid after yourself, fine, just don’t make him a laughing stock in the processes. What sounds cute now when PCs are relatively new is going to sound really stupid when this kid turns 50.
