Sorry

In the film it was indeed
but in Japan it is an honour to give a girl the name Akira apparantly

Who am I to question you on this matter?
I'm not permitted to breed myself so I can only gaze in wonderment at your achievement.

You are correct, much better to have named her after a "rampaging psionic psychopath"

Fucking right
She's getting there too. The other day her grandmother was ignoring her so she stole her slippers took them behind the door and pissed all over them. When I asked her why she had done it her response was "So nanny won't ignore me next time!"

I have no idea why I find this so funny
perhaps you should give her a baby-ASBO

You find it funny
because it's funny. But don't tell her I said that.

It was also funny when she covered herself and in the process the entire house in talcum powder before running in to the room shouting "I'm a ghost" and jumping on me then squirting the remainder of the talcum powder in my face.

Technically, yes
but it's implied that Akira was also.

No it isn't!
Akira was just so powerful that using his powers caused him to unwittingly destroy Tokyo and start World War 3. No psychopathic tendencies were implied.

Good point!
I have named my child after a child with awesome godlike powers who unwittingly started World War III
