Amid growing concern that the world’s store of words has nearly been depleted by entertainment industry parents, the California Institute of Technology today announced the development of a supercomputer that will assist Hollywood stars in coming up with unique names for their children.

”It has become not just socially acceptable but downright fashionable to saddle your kid with a weird name like ‘Pilot Inspektor’,” said Dr. Philip Walker of Cal Tech’s Center for Advanced Computing Research, referring to the name chosen by actor Jason Lee and his wife Beth Riesgraf for their son. “It’s like giving your child a tattoo while he’s still in diapers, with none of the commotion you’d get if you poked him with a needle.”
