Here's Talking To Q
Updated : May 9, 2009
A couple in Sweden has appealed to the country's supreme court in their fight to name their baby boy "Q", legal papers showed Friday.
Judges ruled in the couple's first appeal in January that Q was not an "appropriate" name for a child, arguing that Swedish law forbade names consisting of just one letter.
In their written appeal to Sweden's Supreme Court, the parents Rickard Rehnberg and Thitathorn Sukjit called on judges to reverse the previous ruling.
"There is now a child who answers to the name of Q. What does Sweden gain by forcing him to take on a new name?" they said.
In an earlier judgement in September 2008, Rehnberg and Sukjit told the court they had named the boy Q after the eccentric inventor from the James Bond films, a claim they have not since repeated.
The Swedish Supreme Court was expected to give its verdict within the coming months.
