'My neighbour's name is so stupid I asked for her birth certificate for proof'
A man so astounded by his neighbour's name asked to see her birth certificate because he refused to believe it was real. He explained how his neighbours gave their daughter the "craziest middle name" he's ever heard - so much so, he thought they were joking about it.
After years of not knowing whether it was true or not, he finally asked her dad to show him the girl's birth certificate - and he couldn't believe what he saw written on it. He said: "My neighbour's daughter has the craziest middle name. After years of taking his word for it, I asked her father for proof.
Her middle name is Ringdingdiddyiddyumdumda (reddit.com)"He didn't like the name his wife picked so he said that as long as he could pick her middle name, it was okay."
Written on her birth certificate under the box asking for her middle name reads: "Ringdingdiddyiddyumdumda".
He added on Reddit: "Her dad said the nurse thought it was an April Fools joke. When she realised he was serious, she gave him the dirtiest look ever."

It is thought her middle name was inspired by the chorus of Ylvis' The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?).
The novelty song debates what sound foxes make, jokingly suggesting "Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding", "Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow", and "Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho" as options.
Ylvis' The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?) music video (YouTube - tvnorge)The song starts: "Dog goes 'woof'. Cat goes 'meow'. Bird goes 'tweet'. And mouse goes 'squeek'. Cow goes 'moo'. Frog goes 'croak'. And the elephant goes 'toot'.
"Ducks say 'quack'. And fish go 'blub'. And the seal goes 'ow ow ow'. But there's one sound. That no one knows. What does the fox say?"
It has more than one billion views on YouTube and was awarded Spellemann Award for Hit of the Year and Radio Disney Music Award for Catchiest New Song in 2014, one year after its release.
Commenting on the girl's middle name, one user said: "Mum and dad could not agree about the name. So they asked the dog - but the dog only said woof and they did not like it.
"Then they asked the cat, then the cow, and all several other animals. They still could not find the good middle name. Finally they asked the fox."
Another user added: What a d*** move - potentially giving your child two bad names out of spite.
"If I hated the name my partner gave our child I would give them an awesome middle name that they could use as their first if they so choose."
A third user said: "Where was the baby's mother when this stupidity was going down? I'd never have let my husband do something like that."

One more user added: "Depending on the kids personality, it could potentially be a pretty awesome middle name."
