Oh my! (my phrase of the week, I suppose) Would you want to give the corporate world a chance to name your baby? Now, be warned, this is not typical names like Jane or Joe. It’s more like Coca-Cola, Kleenex, or God-forbid Tampax. Seriously, this couple has put their unborn son’s name for branding and bidding on eBay! Read more about the story at USAToday.

Another is trying to take advantage of the story with his own auction but not for naming a baby, instead for a picture. Looks like another couple thought it was a great idea unless this is the same couple in the USAToday story using a different name. Looks like no one wants to US$500,000.00 yet. If you’ve got money to spare, you have until August 3 to bid.
