A New Delhi woman says she named her baby boy Uber after he was born in a cab on the way to a hospital.
This baby boy will have a story to tell his whole life as he was named Uber after being born in cab operated by the company.
His mother, Babli, says she requested an Uber ride to a hospital after repeated attempts to reach an ambulance.
She says she shared the cab with two other women, but had to stop along the way to deliver the baby inside the cab.
Driver Shahnawaz Khan says he helped with that delivery.
“I jokingly said, the number of passengers has increased in my car. Everyone was smiling but the patient was crying. She was in pain. … I restarted the car and rushed towards the hospital,” he said.
The proud mother says her baby boy will officially be named Uber at a ceremony just a day away.
