When Megan and Eric Kellermeyer found out their child was going to be born on the release date for the highly anticipated *Skyrim*, they did what any parents would do: name their child after the main character. Bethesda had announced a baby naming contest months ago, but Mrs. Kellermeyer is adamant that they wouldn’t name their child Dovahkiin (which means “Dragonborn”) if she didn’t think it was a good name. In exchange for permanently scarring the child, Bethesda gave the couple free copies of all their part games and all future releases. A shame that it didn’t come with a lifetime supply of counselling for little Dovahkiin.
