When are 706 people named Kyle in the same place not enough? When a world record is at stake. Another attempt Saturday by the city of Kyle, Texas, to break the world record for the largest gathering of people with one name has again fallen short.

    Whoever wrote the article must not understand how time works, right?

    Kyle is not a chart-topper among popular names in the U.S., according to the Social Security Administration, which annually tracks the names given to girls and boys in each state. The most recent data showed Kyle ranked 416th among male names in 2023.

    By comparison, Ivan ranked 153.

    Name popularity this year doesn’t matter. Infants aren’t the ones answering the call for a gathering of people with a certain name.

    Upon learning that the record was missed, the organizers issued the following statement: Screw you, Kyles. I’m going home.

    Just like Kyle to slack off when a world record is on the line. Thanks, Kyle!
