Woman Auctions Off Baby's Name on eBay
"You can name him annything [sic] like after a loved one, a departed one, or any great boy name!" reads the auction listing. "I have no job or any source of income so my sister pays for my rent, my phone bill, water bill, gas bill, ALL MY BILLS. And our car is on the last leg of its life." To get a new car, Drummond hopes to get "around 20-25 thousound" dollars. Presumably, that will also help her pay for a spell-checker for her next eBay listing.
Remarkably, at the time of this writing, the auction had 72 bids, with the highest bid standing at $2,700 (still with two days remaining in the auction). And while we're sure she needs the money and do feel sorry that her husband left her, we also have a tip for Ms. Drummond: EASE UP ON MAKING BABIES.
Just a thought. [From: eBay, via Buzzfeed]

Unfortunately it's usually the non-planning lesser intelligent folk that ask to be paid to name their baby, or have a company name or brand tattooed on them to get by in the world.
So posting the obvious advice here is probably not going to sink in to any brethren of this social demographic out there that are doomed to make a mistake like this one.

Not to poor for the internet. Probably has cable too. boo hoo. She likes spreading her legs, maybe she should get into pr0n. Yet further evidence many Americans need to be thinned from the herd.

@Skyynyte-'Many 'Americans' need to be thinned from the herd'?
I think you're setting your sights too locally pet, try thinking globally. How about adding chlorine to the entire gene pool? I'm sure there's village idiots on the entire PLANET that should put on birth control and educated.
Who cares about Morals? Let's try getting people self sufficient, gainfully employed, clean drinking water, food, shelter & for the love of humanity-stop letting dimwits procreate en masse. But in her case-& I hate playing G-d/dess(s)/Higher Power/Or no one if your Athiest here get these people sterilized '6' children? No Significant Other (even if they had 1), we don't live on a farm-most of us live in an Urban Environment. What is she thinking?

How about "Son of Stupid"?

To even admit of auctioning your childs name denotes the type of upbringing this child will recrive. The morals of the parents will be passed to the child, all 7 of them. The quality of American youth is deminishing, and it's parents like this who contribute to their deliquency. Although the idea of auctioning a name to me is unique, perhaps if it was a pet, my car, boat or at the very extreme a hidden tattoo, but the legal name of a child? Creative, perhaps, maybe she should use her creative juices to find gainly employment, not at the expence of her unborn child. Selfish, lazy these are possible winning names, can you name a few?
