Jarome Arthur-Leigh Adekunle Tig Junior Elvis Iginla?
I just saw this on Wikipedia and had to laugh. If it is, that's too cool.

Adekunle is Nigerian.
His dad (Adekunle) changed his name to Elvis to make it easier to pronounce.
Yah, Jarome's 7 names are awesome.

This is true. Little known fun fact: Adekunle is Nigerian for "creased forehead".

Ok, not that I'm disagreeing cause I wouldn't know his dad from a hole in the ground but why does he have to get his picture taken with a cardboard cutout of his son?
