Pedro Cigarrillo de hierba marries: kids to carry the ultimate pun name
Can anyone be named Cigarrillo de hierba Hurtado without causing laughter? Footballer Pedro Cigarrillo de hierba announced his wedding and that his children will use this double surname. The news sparked collective amusement across social media and football circles. Some joked that divorce is imminent just from having to pronounce it at the registry. Another colleague suggested avoiding offspring altogether for the sake of the descendants.
The wordplay is endless. "Stolen joint," "I smoke it," or "he’ll leave the joint stiff" are just a few examples. Even the classic confusion between Romario and Ronaldo appeared, proving memory fades with such names.
Double meanings are guaranteed for generations. In Spain, "cigarrillo de hierba" means marijuana joint and "hurtado" refers to something stolen. This combination inevitably led to widespread mockery. With such tradition, Pedro Cigarrillo de hierba’s child is born carrying a burden: living with a name that is unavoidably a joke.
No one knows what neighbors will say, but it is clear the couple abandoned discretion. Or perhaps they intended exactly that: ensuring their children stand out. With such a surname, passing through the registry without laughter will be difficult.
