Couple Name Baby After Guitar

02/29/2012
. (Gibson) A Gibson guitar enthusiast in Waukesha, Wisconsin (birthplace of Les Paul) loves the historic guitar brand so much that he's named his new baby Gibson.

Mike Weber told the Waukesha Freeman newspaper, "I was talking to some co-workers about baby names before we even started trying for a baby and someone suggested Gibson � I loved it."

In the evenings Weber would play his Gibson Les Paul in front of his wife Crystal's stomach during the pregnancy and on the anticipated day of delivery, February 7, Mike put on his Gibson Les Paul shirt, especially for the occasion. Little Gibson Weber, a boy, was born the next day. He said: "I wore the shirt for a full 30 hours. It was a little funky, but it was worth it." more on this story
