Now, this is just Putin a target on the baby’s back.
Newborns, defenseless little lambs lacking agency and autonomy, often get stuck with nonsensical names.
But this tot’s title is the commander-in-chief of all infant-naming nightmares.

“Richie Rich Putin,” wrote a disgusted Reddit user from Germany, adding that labor and delivery nurses at a local birthing center had recently deemed it the No. 1 “worst name” to ever curse the cradle.
