What is Barack Obama's full name?

Barack Hussein Obama II.
Hearing the name 1,000 times a day has really desensitized me to how weird the name "Barack Obama" sounded just a couple years back.
The "II" part might have made it sound even MORE odd, but I don't know.
Maybe "II" instead of "Junior" is a cultural thing. I'm not overly familiar with Kenyan naming customs.
According to the article it appears II would have been odd for even Kenya. It very well could have been a sort of odd thing the person that did the Birth Certificate decided to do.
THought that would mean in Hawaii would should be seeing quite a few II folks walking around
