A couple has been toasted after sharing the “couch-themed” names they chose for their three children.
The parents, from the US, announced the birth of their son with a sign in their front yard which was subsequently shared on social media.
On the board were the three children’s names: Forbes, Ledger, and Banks.

Their photo was later shared on Reddit, with the post “If you want to be CEO of a Fortune 500 company, but all you have is a bunch of kids.”
It wasn’t long before dozens of others joined in to toast the parents’ choices.
“I just threw up in my mouth a little bit,” one commenter wrote.
Another added: ‘Little JP Morgan is coming in 2024’.
While a third wrote, “What a damn weird theme to name your kids. And none of them are even decent names in their own right.”

Some quickly poked fun at it, saying they must be rich if they had three children:
“Three kids, who can afford that BUT a Fortune 500 CEO?” one person wrote.
Meanwhile, other users theorized what they might call future children.
“They save the best name for a daughter, Bankruptceigh,” said one.
Other suggestions included Cash, Equity, Fortune, Merger and Merrill Lynch.

The team at parenting website Nameberry highlighted some traditional names, including Louise and Archie, as well as other totally unexpected options like Luxury, Yuna, and Marigold.
At the top of the list was the boy name Alden, but many Nameberry experts said it works for both a girl and a baby boy.
“I’ve seen quite a few parents consider this handsome name lately — mostly for their sons, but it could easily work for a girl, too,” Nameberry said.
They added that the Alden name feels “charming, understated, old-fashioned and a little woodsy.”
Similarly, the pundits highlighted Archie as an increasingly popular choice, thanks in no small part to the influence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s eldest son.
