A MAN HAS BEEN SLAMMED FOR NAMING HIS CHILDREN AFTER HIS FAVOURITE TV SHOW CHARACTERS SIMPLY TO FEED HIS 'OBSESSION' OVER THEM AND MANY FEAR THEY'LL BE BULLIED OVER IT -


ESPECIALLY HIS FOURTH KID 15:28, 26 May 2025Updated 15:28, 26 May 2025 A bloke has been slammed for naming his sprogs after telly favourites - all to satisfy his own 'obsession'


with the fictional characters. He took to Reddit to share how he's craftily named his children after his top TV picks, cranking it up a gear with his latest addition to the family. The


dad posted: "My firstborn son was named after the greatest man I ever knew, my grandfather on my mum's side. My dad was super annoyed. "I was supposed to name him the same as


my first name because it was a tradition. My dad never really had an impact on my life." Then, inspired by the hit series Supernatural, he named his daughter Samantha - tipping his hat


to Sam Winchester, reports the Mirror. He gushed: "Her name is Samantha but everyone calls her Sammy... I love it. Supernatural had a major impact on my life." "I started


watching it back in 2006 when I was confined to bed rest for two years almost due to an accident. It was an outlet for me to escape and Sam just resonated with me. "Sam is definitely my


favourite character with dean being a close second as my other favourite character of all time. I laughed, I cried, laughs more, mourned, amped up, and so many other emotions. "This


show was a powerhouse." While his missus picked out the name for their third lad, he was chuffed to bits to choose a name for their fourth kiddo - and this is where the bloke gained


some flack. The dad admitted: "For my fourth son, I got to name him something epic and slide it completely under the radar. I got to name him Broly [a character from the Dragon Ball


franchise]." But the reaction to his youngest son's moniker has caused quite the reaction, with one user commenting: "Poor kid will likely end up being unceremoniously bullied


for it bless him." Another added: "I hope your son's peers don't watch or know Dragon Ball cause if they did, I can see them picking on him by calling him Broccoli or


giving him broccoli every time they see him. "Don't typically name your nippers after Saiyan's since their monikers are nicked from veggies." Someone else said:


"Broly? Ouch. That kids gonna have a hard time in school." Article continues below While a fourth questioned: "Why did your wife only get to name one kid and you got to name


three?" And another mentioned: "Especially since she is the one birthing them and giving her body for the children."
