A teenager has claimed to have the longest name in the world - Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined.

Captain Fantastic - formerly George Garratt - changed his name by deed pool "for a bit of a laugh" through the Legal Deed Poll Service which charged £10 for the legally-certified deed poll.

 

Captain Fantastic, a 19-year-old music student from Glastonbury, Somerset, said his name beat the Guinness Book of Records' longest personal name registered on a birth certificate by 24 letters.

So he got a new birth certificate. I thought the original was legally binding and you change get rid of it but just alter your name on all of your records?

^yep i thought the same The Escapist :thinking:

 

and doesn't this guy has changed his name to get the longest one and then be popular :rolleyes:

 

and btw is legal to have a cartoon name?

Its not legal to have a comercial name like "Big Mac" or "Coca Cola" because of copyright infringment. I'm not sure about cartoon names.

Teenager is a sad little cunt.

I feel sorry for him when he has to enter his full name on forms with limited space for names :)

So he got a new birth certificate. I thought the original was legally binding and you change get rid of it but just alter your name on all of your records?

 

no he can't change his birth certificate, coz I'm guessing he doesn't fit any of the criteria to alter the birth record.

 

For births and adoptions registered in England or Wales:

The name on a birth certificate issued in England or Wales can be changed in the following circumstances:

 

Changing a child's forename(s):

If you only wish to change the forename(s) of your child, it is possible to have your child's new forenames added to the birth register, provided the new forenames were given either in baptism or by regular use within 12 months of the birth being registered. The new forenames may be added to the birth record after 12 months, but you will need to provide documentary evidence that the new forenames were in use within 12 months of registration. Upon re-registration, a new birth certificate can be purchased. Please note, a new full birth certificate will show both the original and the new forenames.

 

Changing a child's surname from the mother's surname to the father's surname (parents not married):

If the natural parents of the child were not married to each other at the time of the birth and the father did not attend with the mother to register the child, it is possible to re-register the birth at any time in the future to include the father's details and change the surname of the child to that of the father (only if both parents agree, otherwise a court order is required). Upon re-registration, a new birth certificate can be purchased.

 

Changing a child's surname from the mother's surname to the father's surname (parents married since birth):

If the natural parents have married each other since the birth was registered, the birth can be re-registered to show the child as a child of the parents' marriage. Upon re-registration, the child and mother's surname can be changed to that of the father and a new birth certificate can be purchased.

 

If you have changed your gender and obtained a Gender Recognition Certificate (from 4th April 2005)

If you are at least 18 years of age and have gender dysphoria and have been living in your acquired gender for at least two years, you can apply to the Gender Recognition Panel for a Gender Recognition Certificate, which will enable you to obtain a new birth certificate showing your new gender and name. The new birth certificate can be used as documentary evidence of your change of name thus avoiding the need for a Deed Poll.

if he's stupid enough to change his name to that, I wouldn't feel sorry for him

Jesus Christ, what a geek.

 

Grow up.

Get out more often.
