[Trending Now] Did You Know?: This 15-year old Filipino Student Has 40 First Names! Read Here!

This shocking fact about a 15-year old highschool student from Pangasinan who owns 40 first names will surely make you wonder if this boy can finish his exams on time or just take up all his time with writing all his names.

A senior high school student from Urdaneta City National High School called Ratziel (for short) make everyone who sees his name take a step back. 

Based on an article featuring Ratziel on the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the boy has 40 first names, one surname, and a name suffix in total. This is his complete name:

Ratziel Timshel Ismail Zerubbabel Zabud Zimry Pike Blavatsky Philo Judaeus Polidorus Isurenus Morya Nylghara Rakoczy Kuthumi Krishnamurti Ashram Jerram Akasha Aum Ultimus Rufinorm Jancsi Janko Diamond Hu Ziv Zeke Wakeman Wye Muo Teletai Chohkmah Nasethrah Mercavah Nigel Seven Morningstar A. San Juan CCCII.

Phew!

If you were to ask what do these names actually mean, well, we provided you a brief background on this peculiar boy's names:

The suffix is actually Roman numerals equivalent to "302". The father of Ratziel said that those numbers came from his Masonic Lodge whose anniversary was the same date as Ratziel's birth day. Also, the suffix represents the end of the family's penchant for long names.

It runs in the blood; the names of Ratziel's siblings were only a few numbers below his, each has 20 names. 

This family admitted that it took NSO 3 years to be able to release their birth certificates. 

You might wonder why this boy, Ratziel, didn't make it to Guiness Book of World Records. Unbelievably, the record-holder of the longest name in history is Hubert Blaine Wolfe from Germany who owns a 590-letter name.
