Click ‘Like’ For Your Baby’s Name

Some people seem to be obsessed with Facebook. Maybe a little too obsessed. An Israeli couple recently named their newborn daughter "Like," as in, the button you press when you enjoy a post on the popular social media site Facebook.

This is how the girl's father, Lior Adler, explained the name to the German press agency dpa:

"If once people gave Biblical names and that was the icon, then today [the Facebook Like] is one of the most famous icons in the world." I know some people that consider Facebook a bible.

Adler's named his other two children Dvash and Pie, and he concedes that friends and family reacted "incredulously" to his latest unusual selection.

When she grows up and meets the man of her dreams he'll be able to say "I love Like." This sounds almost like the old Abbot and Costello skit, about "Who's On First." One of my all time favorites.

What do you think? Do you like the name Like for a human being? Or is this the kind of story that made you wish Facebook had a "dislike" button?
