WOMAN'S SUPERHERO NAME LEADS TO FACEBOOK HANG-UP

Superheroes beware, Facebook is not your friend. "The Washington Post" is reporting that Caitlin Batman Shaw had her name denied by the online social networking site. Shaw created her Facebook account after she married, but decided to add her maiden name of Batman to make it easier for old friends to locate her.

However, Facebook rejected her request claiming they must guard against the potential "misuse" of such names. Shaw spent three weeks appealing the rejection, eventually being allowed to use her full name. Batman will now join the Yodas, Christmases, Beers and Pancakes who have all been rejected by Facebook.
