Okodoro oro...THIS MAN LEGALLY CHANGED HIS NAME TO ‘IPHONE 7’ SO HE COULD GET AN IPHONE 7 FOR FREE



His name is Sim… iPhone Sim (seven)

You might think you love your iPhone 7, but you definitely don’t love it more than one Ukrainian man who recently made a great sacrifice to get one: giving up his very name.

The possibly-too-hardcore Apple fan, formerly known as Olexander Turin, actually changed his name to iPhone Sim (sim means “seven” in Ukrainian) to win an iPhone 7 from a local electronics store.

An Apple iPhone 7 costs about N270k in Ukraine, so when the store offered a free unit to the first five people to change their name to iPhone 7, according to the AP, the 20-year-old Mr. Sim rushed to change his legal name, which costs just about N1k in Ukraine.



And while the change definitely won’t age well in his native Ukrainian, in English, Mr. Sim could easily be read as SIM, the acronym for “Subscriber Identity Module,” the removable smart card inside mobile phones that contains cellular user data. Therefore, in combination with the word iPhone, Sim would essentially make his name evergreen, because every iPhone (for the foreseeable future) will indeed have a SIM.

Mr. Sim also has damn good timing. If he had tried this with the iPhone 6, his name definitely wouldn’t sound as cool in English. According to Google Translate, six in Ukrainian is “shist.” It’s not hard to imagine what some English speakers would hear in that case.

So congratulations, Mr. Sim!

A mother has beaten odds of a million-to-one by giving birth to a baby who appears to be of a different race. With his pale skin, green eyes and light brown hair, Jonah, now three months old, looks like any other new-born baby – but, when seen in his mother’s arms, his uniqueness is obvious. Recalling the moment she delivered Jonah in Milton Keynes Hospital on June 1, his mother told the Sunday Mirror: Catherine Howarth, 32, from Milton Keynes, is Nigerian by heritage, and so was, at first, a little taken aback when she saw her son Jonah for the first time. ‘The midwife looked at me and looked back down at Jonah and then at me again and couldn’t believe it. ‘Some children get darker after a few weeks when the skin colour they will have for life starts to become obvious. But you can see from the colour at the tips of their ears what that Jonah was fully white.We have been told I must have been carrying a recessive gene. My parents were from Nigeria and, for as far back
