| An unverified photo making the rounds on Twitter, posted by user @Riley1Son, claims this baby was named Hashtag. |
A photo making the rounds on Twitter suggests a mother has named her newborn after that social network.
“Hashtag Jameson was born at 10 oclock last nite,” reads the caption of a photo that appears to have been posted on Facebook.
“She weys 8pounds and I luv her so much.”
Online reaction ranged from outrage to laughter over the supposed naming of the baby, pictured wrapped in a blue blanket. Hashtags are used to highlight keywords on Twitter.
“A baby has been named Hashtag. If true, funny. In a life ruined kind of way,” one Twitter user said. “‘Hashtag..I love you’ Let's hope for a Follow Friday sister.”
The Star and other media have so far been unable to confirm whether the image, made famous by Awkward Messages, is legitimate.
If true, Hashtag could be the latest example of extreme baby naming. Last year, a man reportedly named his first-born Facebook. Before that came little Number 16 Bus Shelter.
But there are some limits, at least in New Zealand, where a judge ordered that a 9-year- old be renamed in 2008. Her parents named her Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii.
