Rooney BabyDon't want to offend anyone, but what a bloody stupid name for a baby
Kai Wayne !
I wonder if the midwife pulled it out by the ears so it could be like
daddy

woof woof

He's not known for his brain so maybe it's just a spelling mistake and the baby was due to be called Christopher, or something...

I don't think Kai is that bad really, Wayne well at least it's his middle name.

I know a chap called Wayne Scott. Mind you a colleague some years ago insisted that he'd been to school with a lad called Isaac Hunt.

We have a bloke called Wayne King do some work for us.
Nothing wrong with Kai but Wayne as the middle name is terrible - I've never been into naming kids with daddy's in the middle - it's all a bit 'mini-me'

Even worse are naming your kids directly aftr yourself, I've a son and dad combo cutomer and their names are identical.
I've never been a middle name person, both myself and my sister don't have one, nor my dad, the eldest has one but not the youngest.

That's a relief. My brother and I were named after our grandfathers, in a way. My brother has the same two names as our paternal grandfather but reversed in order and my middle name was also my maternal grandfather's middle name.

Let's hope they didn't use the awful US thing of Fred Blog II or of course Fred. J. Blog II as those yanks love the full name bit.
Kai - are you sure that his missus wasn't saying "'Kin'ell Wayne" when she saw little-uns ears and she was just misheard?

It's also tempting fate, I worked on a paternity test where 'Wayne Jnr' was not the child of 'Wayne Snr'. Someone suggested it was 'Mrs Wayne's' wishful thinking or maybe her guilty conscience.

My kids are quite upset. I was going to take them to see Shrek 2 but apparently only Hello readers are allowed to see him.....

Nearly as bad as the girl with a German dad at our school.
She was called Henrietta.........her dad was Mr Koch

I went to school with a girl called Heather Cocks. Standard joke was speculation about her middle name ...

When I was at work, the woman in charge of our payroll department was Nora Cox. Always sounded too painful to me.

Don't see anything wrong with Kai either - at least it's a normal, if not particularly popular, name and not one of those made up names that celebrities often go for.
Our kids don't have middle names either - I can't see the point at all, it never gets used.
On the subject of funny names I knew a bloke called Mike Hunt - he was doing a job at a local workshop when there was a phone call for him. The receptionist did a tour of the place asking, "has anyone seen Mike Hunt?"

A line immortalised in the film 'Porkies'.
I dealt with a staff agency back in the eighties whose rep had the same name. Oddly enough, he always identified himself as Michael Hunt.

I've posted this before, but when I was a teenager a couple of us convinced the new receptionist to put a call out for a Mike Huntsore.....

Isn't the groundsman at Lords or The Oval called Mike Hunt?

BBC or ITV news had a Chris Peacock, after a while he started to be Christopher.

Thinking back, in the nineties we had a salesman by the name of Michael Kunze. Being of German origin, strictly speaking, his surname should have been pronounced 'Kunt-suh' but he pronounced it 'Coons'.
