PETA Activist Changes Her Name to "GoVeg.com"

That's "go-veg-dot-com." Got that?

It might sound more than a little odd - but it's true. A young animal rights activist from Indiana once known as Karin Robertson has legally changed her name to that of a Web site run by her employer, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

It's not a first name or a last name - just one name. And don't call her "Veg" or "Dot," as some have tried to do.

"I like the whole name together," says the 23-year-old woman who is a youth educator for PETA and living in Norfolk, Virginia, where the organization is based.

It just begs the question: What is more "radical chic"? Living in a tree for a year, or changing your name to "go-veg-dot-com"? Try figuring it out for yourself here, from the AP via Findlaw.
