Facebook Success: "My Sister Said If I Get One Million Fans She Will Name Her Baby Megatron"

Baby Megatron Fan Page Reaches One Million Fans and Counting

K. Anderson
Just 12 days ago, a man began a Facebook page that stated, "My Sister Said If I Get One Million Fans She Will Name Her Baby Megatron." The number of fans started small, but on day 12, the number began rising by the hundreds every minute, and by nightfall, the goal was met! Over one million fans had joined this Facebook page. I just came across this page yesterday and I was amazed at how quickly the number was rising, and how quickly it continues to rise even now that the goal has been met. I've never seen a Facebook fan page grow quite like this. The people are piling in, thousands by the hour, and it's amazing to just sit and hit refresh as the number grows. It looks like the there may need to be a new goal: how about a new middle name for Baby Megatron if the number reaches two million.

Still the question remains, will this man's sister really name her baby Megatron?? It seems only fair that she does, although the child may suffer through childhood, they will have the support of over a million people, right? I'm sure the woman is kicking herself right now, but then again, she could be in amazement that such a phenomenon is occurring. Who would have thought that one simple facebook page could have reached over a million people in less than 2 weeks? That is just proof that the Internet is a very powerful tool for all of us, and we shouldn't forget that.

What are some possible baby names? Of course if she named the kid Megatron there would have to be some side name that they could go by. For a girl it could be Megan, and for a guy I guess it could be Troy? Or there could always be the wonderful nickname, "Mega", however a girl may not be as fond of that name as she is growing up. But then again, when you're named Megatron, I guess you don't really even care what you are called anymore.

It's no doubt a great story, and it's been fun to watch the number increase. Here's a link to the page if you want to join in the craziness:

Best luck to Baby Megatron and family!!

    hmm, let's see. Megatron, which is unique and doesn't sound like a wimp name.

    Or you can name your kid Barak, which sounds like something you leave in a toilet.

    Or you can name your kid, Richard, which comes out to a specified organ.

    Or you can name your kid Jesus, which then you are either hispanic or well, have some sort of god complex.

    Or the most conceited thing you can do is name your kid after yourself, because your so stuck on yourself, you want your kid to be a "mini me". Now that is conceited.
