North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has banned citizens from sharing his name and ordered people using it to get ‘trained’ to change it.

A leaked internal state document obtained by South Korean television contained ‘an administrative order’ to all party, army and police officials to ensure that the directive was carried out. According to the document….
‘All party organs and public security authorities should make a list of residents named Kim Jong-Un… and train them to voluntarily change their names.’
‘Authorities should make sure that there is no one making unnecessary complaints or spreading gossip… regarding this project.’
Dailymail reports that, anyone named Kim Jong-Un would have their official documents, identity cards and even school diplomas changed to the person’s new name.

Officials were also told to reject all birth certificates for babies named after the dictator.
