Childbirth can be a traumatic and disorienting experience... not unlike a mosh pit full of a bunch of freaks off their leashes.
New mom Kells Tate's story went viral over the weekend after tweeting about a mistake that happened at the hospital while she was in labor that led to her new baby being legally named Korn. Yes, Korn.

1. The name is supposed to be Kora
2. Yes this should be able to be easily fixed if we are fast!
3. There is a chance they may have had me double check this but to be fair I was down a lot of blood at the time 😩😩😩
Results of my viral baby Korn tweet:

1. I know the title of every Korn song
2. I know the full etymology of the word corn
3. I know what Kora means in multiple languages (it’s a word in a bunch of them!!)
4. I learned a LOT of people have incorrect names on their birth cert
As you can see in the thread above, Kells intended to name her daughter Kora, not Korn, and attributes the misnomer to a possible lack of blood and cohesion on her part. "THE HOSPITAL MESSED UP MY BABYS NAME AND WE JUST GOT THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND ITS KORN MY BABYS NAME IS LEGALLY KORN," she said in all caps highlighting her shock.
Fans of the band KORN (who are yet to respond to the blunder) were thrilled with the news, which made its way to numerous fan accounts. Kells says she now knows "the title of every Korn song," as well as a few other interesting tidbits happily provided by the Internet-at-large.

Kora/Korn does not know she was the main character this weekend. We just mailed the corrections form, which unfortunately was the back of the Korn certificate so we can’t put it in the baby book but we’ll put a scanned version in. :D
New mom Kells eventually provided another update explaining that she has submitted paperwork to correct the misunderstanding and that the original, official form with the name Korn, unfortunately, will no longer be a part of her family scrapbook settling instead for a photocopy.
