Man Changes Name To Tyrannosaurus Rex Because It’s So Much ‘Cooler’

YORK, Nebraska (TRP) – A Nebraska man looking to stand out with a unique name, legally changed his name Monday to Tyrannosaurus Rex.

In his court filing, 23-year-old Tyler Gold of York County, said the name Tyrannosaurus Rex is way “cooler” than his given name. Clearly.

Gold, who is an entrepreneur also made the claim that “name recognition [in business] is important and the new name is more recognizable.”

When he stood before a city judge, Gold insisted the name change was not in an attempt to hide from creditors or law enforcement.

After reviewing all the paperwork, the judge decided to approve the name change in turn making the Nebraska man — now known as “Tyrannosaurus Rex Joseph Gold” — a little bit more cooler.
