Unusual: He lost his name during a poker game

Poker games can sometimes be the subject of "side bet", additional Paris might say. For example, in a tournament, we can add clauses with our friends. Among them, can say that the player went the furthest in the tournament will be refund the price of entry by other players. There's no limit to other than the imagination to this kind of "side bet".

The following bet side is a little less ordinary. A New Zealander has lost its name during a game of poker a little too watered.

IRAP took place several years ago while the man was committed to change its name to "Full Metal Havok More Sexy N Intelligent Than Spock And All The Superheroes Combined With Frostnova" if he lost. The name was chosen by the other players in this poker during the evening. Its name could perhaps be longer if it wasn't for the restriction in New Zealand that names of individuals are limited to 99 characters (including spaces).

So now that its new name is legally changed it it comes to honor his bet. If Mr Frostnova again wants to change its name, it may do so at the time to be using the designated form and in carrying charges $ 127.

As long as the name of a person does not offend another individual, it will be accepted. For example, in 2007, a couple tried to call their child "4Real Superman". Their first application was refused because the name included a figure, but when parents have changed it to "Superman" tout court, the name has been accepted.
