OK... So, a baby has actually been named Iron Maiden IRL

Picking a name for your baby is not easy. At. All.

Choose wrongly and it is your son or daughter who will have to live with your mistake. Choose right and you can bask in your baby naming glory for a lifetime.

So, we didn't know what to think when we will we came across this story of a family naming their newborn baby boy Iron Maiden.

As in Iron Maiden the band.

However, while it may not be our cup of tea, the Bolivian family's reason for choosing the name is actually pretty sweet. 

Talking to ATB digital, dad César Durán Alpire explained that he wanted his son to have the same strength and energy that the lead singer Eddie The Head has.

"I want my son to have that strength, that energy," the band's self-confessed superfan said.

"I want him to fight for what he wants, to have the attitude and, above all, to be mentally strong."

Iron Maiden Druan Ruiz was born on February 2nd and he's already a bit of a star – so maybe the family choose wisely?!
