Thanks to a prankster, one local man was wished a rather special birthday from two local morning anchors who unknowingly used an X-rated fake name in Spanish live on air.

"Fox News First," which gets KABB Fox 29 San Antonio started with morning headlines, invites viewers to celebrate birthdays by sending in names and photos of their loved ones on their big days to be read on air.

Friday's birthdays included three people: Amos, Casey and "Chewpa ..." (you fill in the rest). It is a name we hope is fake and cannot explicitly spell out here. However, the name/phrase is easily translated through a Google search if you don't know raunchy Spanish insults.

The moment was caught on video and shared to Facebook by user Daniel Ortiz. In two hours, the clip has racked up more than 5,000 shares and a rapid-fire thread of comments, most of which are people tagging their friends to watch.

WARNING: The video below contains material some may consider offensive :

In the video, anchor Ashley Sutton reads the first two names with confidence before pausing on the prank name.

"Sorry, I'm going to butcher this name," she said before saying the phrase on air.

It's unclear who submitted the birthday "wish" or who Chewpa is, but he's supposedly turning 27 today.

In any case, happy birthday to you, Chewpa.
