A Seattle mother named Kells Tate has gone viral after sharing that her newborn daughter was legally given the name ‘Korn’ instead of ‘Kora’ due to a hospital error.
“The hospital messed up my baby’s name and we just got the birth certificate and it’s Korn my baby’s name is legally Korn” she tweeted alongside a photo of the mistake – a post that at the time of writing now has gotten over 14,000 retweets and 138,000 likes. Detailing the mistake – which should thankfully be corrected ASAP and with relative ease as these typos do often happen – Kells followed up by explaining that, “1. The name is supposed to be Kora. 2. Yes this should be able to be easily fixed if we are fast! 3. There is a chance they may have had me double check this but to be fair I was down a lot of blood at the time.” While the band are yet to respond, Tate adds that she is “healing well” – and is clearly taking this all in very good humor.
