What kind of a title is that? Believe it or not, it is the name of a child in New Zealand. That is until recently. A family court judge decided that this name was a burden to the child.
"The court is profoundly concerned about the very poor judgement which this child's' parents have shown in choosing this name," he wrote. "It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap, unnecessarily".
The girl had been so embarrassed that she had never told her closest friends what her name was. She told people to call her "K". Her new name has not been released for privacy reasons. Thankfully this child will have a chance now.
