People with real l337 speak names?

An anonymous reader writes "I'm considering naming my first-born child either Br4d or J4n37, depending on gender. My wife isn't too keen on the idea but there's plenty of time left to persuade her. Anyway, it had me wondering whether there are any people out there with real l337 speak given names (or even just a digit in their name). Do you know of any? Other than people saying your dad is a l4m3r, What are the possible pitfalls of having a digit in your name? Is it legal to have a digit in a name? Am I guaranteeing my child becomes a misfit? Am I the misfit?" Ask Jennifer 8. Lee.

    Perhaps the lamest April fool's joke ever.

    Bullwinkle!

    The only reason I even read the replies to this story was to see if anyone beat me to making the RHPS connection. You win, senahj.

    It's not easy having a good time.

    Some people are seriously stooping to new lows.

    Maybe your kid won't be a misfit, but he's going to know his dad was a loser.
