The world’s longest name now belongs to a 19-year-old graduate from the UK, formerly known as George Garratt, as reported by “The Telegraph.”
His new name, following an official change by deed pole last week, is Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined.
Stating the obvious, Captain Fantastic said: “I decided upon a theme of superheroes.” His new name is a staggering 81 characters in length.
The teenager, from the quaint town of Glastonbury, Somerset, also appears to have alienated his grandmother, who is not speaking to him.
Captain Fantastic now finds himself among an elite group of peers with ridiculously long names, including Rhoshandiatellyneshiaunneveshenk Koyaanisquatsiuth Williams.
