During the hearing the following discussion was had between the court and Sheppard with regards to the child's name. The Court: I simply do not understand why you named this child - - his legal name is Weather'by Dot Com Chanel Fourcast Sheppard. Now, before you answer that, Mr. - - the plaintiff in this action is a weatherman for a local television station. Sheppard: Yes. The Court: Okay. Is that why you named this child the name that you gave the child? Sheppard: It - - it stems from a lot of things. The Court: Okay. Tell me what they are. Sheppard: Weather'by - - I've always heard of Weatherby as a last name and never a first name, so I thought Weatherby would be - - and I'm sure you could spell it b-e-e or b-e-a or b-y. Anyway, Weatherby. The Court: Where did you get the "Dot Com"? Sheppard: Well, when I worked at NBC, I worked on a Teleprompter computer. The Court: All right. Sheppard: All right, and so that's where the Dot Com [came from]. I just thought it was kind of cute, Dot Com, and then instead of - - I really didn't have a whole lot of names because I had nothing to work with. I don't know family names. I don't know any names of the Speir family, and I really had nothing to work with, and I thought "Chanel"? No, that's stupid, and I thought "Shanel," I've heard of a black little girl named Shanel. The Court: Well, where did you get "Fourcast"? Sheppard: Fourcast? Instead of F-o-r-e, like your future forecast or your weather forecast, F-o-u, as in my fourth son, my fourth child, Fourcast. It was - - The Court: So his name is Fourcast, F-o-u-r-c-a-s-t? Sheppard: Yes. . . . The Court: All right. Now, do you have some objection to him being renamed Samuel Charles? Sheppard: Yes. The Court: Why? You think it's better for his name to be Weather'by Dot Com Chanel - - Sheppard: Well, the - - The Court: Just a minute for the record. Sheppard: Sorry. The Court: Chanel Fourcast, spelled F-o-u-r-c-a-s-t? And in response to that question, I want you to think about what he's going to be - - what his life is going to be like when he enters the first grade and has to fill out all [the] paperwork where you fill out - - this little kid fills out his last name and his first name and his middle name, okay? So I just want - - if your answer to that is yes, you think his nameis better today than it would be with Samuel Charles, as his father would like to name him and why. Go ahead. Sheppard: Yes, I think it's better this way. The Court: The way he is now? Sheppard: Yes. He doesn't have to use "Dot Com." I mean, as a grown man, he can use whatever he wants. The Court: As a grown man, what is his middle name? Dot Com Chanel Fourcast? Sheppard: He can use Chanel, he can use the letter "C." The Court: And when he gives his Birth Certificate - - is it on his birth Certificate as you've stated to the Court? Does his Birth - - does this child's Birth Certificate read "Weather'by Dot com" - - Sheppard: That's how I filled out the paperwork for his - - The Court: - - Chanel Fourcast? Sheppard: Yes, and for his Social Security card, I filled it out as Weather'by F. Sheppard. The Court: All right. |

From the farkin' case: "each child had a different father" (out of four). I for one am shocked -- SHOCKED! -- at this revelation.

How can a person live and be so stupid? I mean, I thought idiots died before they got children.

| Originally posted by Lilith No I would, seen some staggeringly bad names given to kids, including my own, if the paperwork wasn't so annoying I would have changed it but it's easier just to use my middle names which are slightly more normal. |
