A disgrace to the human race, part II

A while back, TCO wrote about the story of a child being named Adolf Hitler.

Today, it's being reported that the child has been taken by social services.

In related news, a child in New Zealand was taken, and replaced in a foster family, as a result of her being named Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii.

Now, I don't know about you, good people, but I can't help feeling, wouldn't it have been easier just to change her name? Anyway, I also feel there's a difference between people and people. Looking at some celebrity babies:

Apple: Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow. "The Apple didn't fall far from the tree, but he probably needs medical attention."

Blue Angel: U2's The Edge and Aislinn O'Sullivan.

Bluebell Madonna: Geri Halliwell. A mix of a protected species and an alien species.

Diezel Ky: Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis (also parents to Denim Cole). We get it. You like jeans.

Fifi Trixibell: Bob Geldof and Paula Yates (also parents to Peaches and Pixie). Sounds like a French 18th century prostitute.

Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily: Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence. Or "Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon" as she will be known once she loses her virginity.

Ireland: Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger.

Kal-El Coppola: Nicholas Cage. It's was either that or Francis Ford Superman, I suppose.

Lark Song: Mia Farrow and André Previn.

Moon Unit: Frank Zappa, also father to Dweezil and Diva Muffin.

Moxie CrimeFighter: Penn Jillette (also father to Zolten).

Sage Moonblood: Sylvester Stallone and Sasha Czack (also parents to Seargeoh).

And my personal favorite: Pilot Inspektor: Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf.

"I would like to order some tickets to London, please."
"Yes, sir. That can be arranged. Your name, please?"
"Pilot Inspektor Lee."
"And your first name?"
"Pilot Inspektor."
"I'm sorry, sir, not your occupation. Your first name, please?"
"Pilot Inspektor."
"Sir, if you don't give me your first name, I can't make the necessary arrangements."
"My name is Pilot Inspektor!"

Wouldn't it just be epic if he ended up being a pilot inspector? "My name is pilot inspector Pilot Inspektor. Pilot Inspektor by name, pilot inspector by trade. Here's my wife - Cock Pit Inspektor. Pit inspector by day, cock inspector by night."

Some people.
