Facebook is one of the top social media networks of all time, and has spawned a couple to name their daughter "Like." An Israeli couple wanted to name their daughter something original and modern, so they chose the popular Facebook button.
While looking for creative names, the couple considered a Chinese name as well, but decided to name their daughter "Like" as they believe it is "the modern equivalent of the name Ahava" meaning love. Upon posting a photo of their newborn child, they received 40 "Likes" on Facebook.
Although a bit comical at first, the decision to name their daughter "Like" seems like a good choice. No one will ever forget her name -- however, it may get confusing during her teenage years when the word like is used in overload.
