Just when you think it's safe to name your child...
Nick Cage comes along and cocks it up. Well, actually, he only cocked it up for his newborn son, naming him Kal-el. Yes, Superman's Krytonite name. I just don't know what to say.
Actually, that's not true. I can always manage a Superman quote.
"Son of Jor-el, kneel before Zod!"
Wow, that poor kid is going to be in therapy by the age of three.

Whaha, I think so too. Although the name sounds a bit oriental too (oriental as in: on this planet oriental)like the airplanes of El-Al which tend to crash.
I would have named my son Zod.
The "el" suffix on Kryptonian names is said to refer to the Hebrew naming of angels. If true, this would be consistent with the origin of "Uber-mensch" in ACTION COMICS #1 by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster back in 1939.
What Nicholas Cage is thinking, however, I have no idea.
Should have named him PAL MEL because he's going to be smoking before he's 7.
Weird choice of names...I'll never understand these Hollywood types.
Frank Zappa's kids turned out all right though. ;)
