in reply to a message by Brendan

It could have been a hoax, but why pay money to put an ad in the paper, in a section nobody really reads?

Perhaps the parents are attempting to rival celebrity baby names such as Moxie Crimefighter or Pilot Inspektor.

Perhaps.
However, I sincerely don't have a big issue with Pilot (frankly just another occupation name, like Cooper, Tanner, Hunter, etcetera - only without the trendier -er ending) or Inspektor (ditto above, though unfortunately spelled), or even Crimefighter (another occupation, and at least an admirable one) and I really think Moxie is genuinely cute. Our own beloved and terribly clever Array has previously called it a "post-modern" virtue name on this very board.

But Doomsday Device? I can't find any redeeming qualities there. It just seems totally unreal.
