Picking out baby names can be a fun activity, whether you\u2019re a parent or not. Plenty of people have offered up suggestions to friends or relatives for their children, or have simply thought up a short list they\u2019d want for their own future kids. However, a fair few parents have caught flak for giving their offspring unconventional names, with many critics pointing out that their children might get bullied at school for having an uncommon moniker. One such parent is coming under fire for their choice of name for his newborn son after sharing it with TikTok. TikToker Alex Cruz celebrated the birth of his baby boy earlier this month. A quick look at his content shows that he\u2019s an avid anime fan and manga reader, and his hobby was not lost on the newest addition of his family. In a video that\u2019s garnered over four million views, Cruz showed off a clip of his baby boy sleeping in a bassinet at the hospital, where his son\u2019s name was written on a label. According to this label, Cruz\u2019s son\u2019s name is \u2018Ichigo D. Yeager Guts Kenpachi Cruz.\u2019 Essentially, Cruz has potentially named baby Ichigo after five different anime characters: Ichigo and Kenpachi from Bleach, Eren Yeager from Attack on Titan, and Guts from Berserk, with the \u2018D\u2019 likely referencing One Piece\u2019s Monkey D. Luffy. TikTok shocked after man names son after five anime characters Commenters were instantly up in arms about the baby\u2019s name, with many users in shock that Cruz may have actually named his son after multiple anime protagonists. \u201cWHERE WAS THE MOTHER WHILE YOU WERE NAMING HIM?\u201d one user wrote. \u201cBro is gonna fight for his life in the group chat,\u201d another said. \u201cIt\u2019s one thing to name bro after your fav anime character, BUT YOUR ENTIRE TOP 5?\u201d another remarked. However, some viewers aren\u2019t certain that the TikToker is being serious. In response to the backlash, Cruz posted another video where he showed off a different label with a different name: \u201cAizen Dio Geto Griffith Madara Cruz.\u201d Of course, this is in reference to even more anime characters \u2014 but these ones are famous villains from JoJo\u2019s Bizarre Adventure, Naruto, Jujutsu Kaisen, Bleach, and Berserk, rather than heroes. For now, it\u2019s pretty likely that Cruz is just trolling at this point\u2026 but that\u2019s not stopping viewers from levying a critical eye toward the TikToker, anyway. Until Cruz comes clean, anime fans can peep the newest teaser image for the next season of Attack on Titan, which is set to air sometime next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikToker goes viral for naming his son after five different anime characters TikTok: alexcruzmanga \/ Kentaro Miura, Dark Horse Comics \/ Viz MediaA TikToker is coming under fire after revealing that he named his newborn son after five different anime characters in a viral video.
