Matthew Jean Rouse doesn't like his middle name and he's letting you pick a new one.

The 31-year-old father of two is selling the naming right on eBay. The "Buy It Now" price is $8,000. As of early Monday, there had been a total of 30 bids, with the high bid $2,175. The winning bidder gets to choose a new middle name for Rouse, a software engineer. Rouse also agrees to use his middle name "whenever plausible and not hide it."

"If he wants to walk around with 'Fool' as his middle name, that's his problem," said Rouse's wife, Corinna Rouse. "If someone changes his name to 'Poophead,' he may decide it's a little more important than he thought." Rouse's middle name was taken from his late grandfather, Jean Stelter, with whom he didn't get along.

His older brother, Bill Rouse, 46, of Mesa, Arizona, bid $1,500 for the name. "Basically, he's trying to dump our grandfather's name, and I'm trying to buy it and make it stay as it is," Bill Rouse said.

***....u can be so creative with this one. he will walk around with lifetime embarrassment. bechora. but if u think about it, he's making a lot of money off of it. and if he is the type of person who doesnt care and doesnt embarrass easily, then its a very interesting idea he came up with.

heeeey, how come they blocked out the l-o-l that i said in the beginning......is that really so bad?
