Emily Nordling has never met a Muslim, at least not to her knowledge. But this spring, Nordling, a 19-year-old student from Fort Thomas, Kentucky, gave herself a new middle name on Facebook.com, mimicking her boyfriend and shocking her father.Read the entire article here. Read Reliapundit's commentary here.
"Emily Hussein Nordling," her entry now reads.
With her decision, she joined a growing band of supporters of Senator Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, who are expressing solidarity with him by informally adopting his middle name.
The result is a group of unlikely-sounding Husseins: Jewish and Catholic, Hispanic and Asian and Italian-American, from Jaime Hussein Alvarez of Washington, D.C., to Kelly Hussein Crowley of Norman, Oklahoma, to Sarah Beth Hussein Frumkin of Chicago....
Of course, I'm not a follower of Obama. I wonder what I should change my middle name to?

Here are some suggestions: Vlad, Martel, Sobieski, Charlemagne, Holger, Lepanto, Juan, John.
I've got first dibs on Vlad.
It is interesting, don'tcha think that she is using a Muslim middle name....sorta like the cult of Mohammed, too!
