Nebraska Toddler with Computer-Generated Name Finally Receives Social Security Number
The two-year-old, known as Caroline, still lacks a birth certificate under her real name after a bureaucratic error left her officially named 'Unakite Thirteen Hotel.'
- Caroline, a two-year-old from Nebraska, was issued a Social Security number after her father’s lengthy efforts to resolve a bureaucratic error.
- The child’s official name on state records, 'Unakite Thirteen Hotel,' was computer-generated following her birth in 2022 due to a clerical mistake.
- Her father, Jason Kilburn, struggled to access essential services like Medicaid and daycare for Caroline due to the lack of proper identification documents.
- The Social Security number was issued under her incorrect official name, but Kilburn plans to pursue additional steps to secure a birth certificate and name correction.
- The resolution followed media coverage of the case, prompting governmental agencies to assist in addressing the issue after years of legal and administrative hurdles.
