ORLANDO, Fla. (July 12) - An Orlando man has traded the naming rights to his unborn son for a $100 gas card. David Partin recently heard that a local radio station was giving $100 worth of free gas to the listener who called in with the most interesting item to trade. Central Florida radio hosts Richard Dixon and J. Willoughby were quick to take Partin up on his offer, The Orlando Sentinel reports.

David Partin, posing with his pregnant girlfriend Samantha Bailey, agreed to sell the rights to his unborn boy's name to a Orlando radio station for a $100 gas card. Two morning show hosts plan to name the baby after themselves, "Dixon and Willoughby."

When the baby is born this winter, he will be named Dixon and Willoughby Partin — with the "and" included. Partin's girlfriend, Samantha, says at least her son will have an interesting story about how he got his name. Dixon and Willoughby plan to be at the hospital when the baby is born and will hand over the gas card when they see the official birth certificate.

Seriously? She thinks "my daddy sold my name to some radio guys for two tanks of gas" is a good story?

Poor kid.
