"I wanted to be unique"

quote:

GLASTONBURY, England, Nov. 3 -- A British 19-year-old has officially changed his name to "Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined."

The Glastonbury, England, teenager -- originally named George Garratt -- said his new name, which is thought to be the world's longest, has so outraged his grandmother that she is no longer speaking to him, The Telegraph reported Monday.

The teen said he used an online service to officially change his name for a $20 fee.

"I wanted to be unique," Captain Fantastic said of his name choice. "I decided upon a theme of superheroes."

Gotta feel bad for 'Captain Fantastic' though. Poor guy is gonna get a cavity search every time he goes through customs. Forever.

Well it's his own damn fault for wanting to be unique!

At least he chose his name himself. Somewhere in the UK some parents named their kid Xavier Wolverine because they loved the X-men franchise.

That kid is going to get bullied..............and possibly raped.

It will be in the papers in 20 or so years "Wolverine gets raped by local thugs"

You heard it hear first.

He's so excited I'm happy for him. Even if it turns out to be a disaster in his life, he's got his 15 minutes of fame. And, how can you not lol at his excitement?! :p

I just wish he could convert his joy into actuall speed. He then would definitely be faster than Superman, Spiderman, Batman, Wolverine, Hulk, and the Flash combined :D

I wonder what his nickname will be...

Oh yeah, I wonder how long this will last?
He'll get over writing his name out on applications/forms etc.
