That's why there are some names on the list like "Boy" or "Girl".
That being said, Kal-El and Lightning are awesome names for your kid.
Also, throwing a "y" into your child's name doesn't make it unique.

I think the standard is "Baby Boy" or "Baby Girl" lastname if no name is chosen/given before leaving the hospital. Friends of ours adopted two newborns and since they would register the birth after the wait period was over - the baby left with "Baby Girl" as the name registered with Alberta Health.
Dear lord, there are some awful names out there - I feel sorry for the kids.
