From Haaland to Messi: World Cup stars inspired to have newborns named after them

Many families in Latin America were affected by the 2026 World Cup, with many choosing names inspired by football stars such as Erling Haaland, Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Cristiano Ronaldo. In Peru, hundreds of children were named Haaland, while around 30,000 children were registered with names related to the tournament, including the name "Mundial" for children despite Peru not qualifying for the competition. In Mexico, birth certificates appeared for children with names combining players from the national team, such as "Kenyona Yesidera Morita Haaland Gervara," although authorities have not confirmed the authenticity of these certificates. Likewise, in Argentina, the most common names among newborns were Enzo, Emiliano, and Lionel, reflecting the significant influence of the World Cup on the names given to newborns.
