Child’s middle name is Skywalker!
Suddenly a British family’s holiday in the Dominican Republic is in jeopardy. Little Loki Skywalker’s middle name is that of a Disney character from Star Wars. That’s why he can’t get a passport! Will the Mowbrays from Sutton Heath still make it to the holiday?
Son was born on the unofficial Star Wars day
Christian Mowbray is a huge Star Wars fan. So big that his son Loki (7) is named after a character. The soldier is unsuspectingly planning a family vacation and applying for a passport for his child when the bitter news arrives: The Home Office tells him that he must either obtain permission from Disney or consider changing his son’s nameas the New York Post reports. The son’s date of birth is also May 4th, which is unofficially known as Star Wars Day.
Reading tip: O or 0? So your passport number won’t be a problem
It is supposed to be the family’s first trip since Loki’s birth in 2014 – should it really fall through? The authorities justified their refusal to issue the passport by saying that they were not allowed to print the name Skywalker. Copyright law therefore puts a stop to the family of five’s plans. “We know that Loki’s middle name is copyrighted, but we have no intention of using it for our personal gain”defends father Christian.

He sees “the need to recognize that modern names are evolving”
He assures us that although he understands the position and the argumentation of the Ministry of the Interior, he sees “the need to recognize that modern names evolve”according to the report. The media got wind of the matter and wanted to help the family. Only when the strange case was reported did the ministry change its mind. And then, fortunately, everything happened very quickly: the family received a message saying that their application was being processed. They also apologized for the delay. Nothing now stands in the way of Loki’s first vacation. (xs)
