Stumped for an original name for their newborn daughter, an Israeli couple took inspiration from social networking site Facebook and named her "Like",
Maariv reported.
The parents lifted the name from the popular feature on the site, which allows Facebook users to click on the word "like" and give the thumbs-up to comments, links and pictures posted by other users.
"We named her Like because it's modern and innovative," father Lior Adler told the mass-circulation paper. "I checked that the name does not exist elsewhere in the country, that was the main condition for me," he said.
"In our opinion it's the modern equivalent of the name Ahava [Love] he added. "It's just my way of saying to my fantastic daughter, 'love.'"
Adler and his wife Vardit have in the past strayed into unusual territory in naming their offspring.
The pair share a love of cooking and so decided to name their other daughters "Pie", using the English word for the name, and "Vash", Hebrew for honey, Maariv reported.
As might be expected, the couple's newest arrival was quickly announced to their friends and family on Facebook, where she was an instant hit, her father told the paper.

I had the misfortune of sitting in on a different oupatient group today that was full of "young'uns". Every other word out of their mouths was "like".
"Like, you know what I'm sayin, like, I feel like down today. Like, you know, I don't want to like use or nothin, but like, something isn't like clicking for me like I don't know."

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?
