Newborn Named ‘Korn’ due to Hospital Error

While it would be just like a hardcore Korn fan to name her baby after the nu-metal group, the Seattle mother of a newborn named Korn says she’s not a fan. The woman, identified only by her Twitter handle @pkkaos wanted to name her daughter “Kora” — but a hospital employee accidentally wrote “Korn” on the birth certificate. ​”The hospital messed up my baby’s name,” Kells tweeted. “We just got the birth certificate and it’s Korn. My baby’s name is legally Korn.”

Kells says she’s sent in a formal request for a correction, but until that’s approved, her baby will keep the Korn-y name.

What’s the strangest name you’ve heard?
