Justin Bieber is changing his name.

The reason: His parents said they made a mistake when they named the boy.

Of course, it’s not the 22-year-old Canadian pop star who is seeking a name change.

It’s a 2-year-old in Omaha.

The boy’s parents, who are from Myanmar, formerly called Burma, requested a do-over, filing a formal petition for a name change this month in Douglas County District Court.

Interviewed by phone, a family friend, Htoo Wah, told The World-Herald that Bieber’s parents, who speak minimal English, had Bieber fever when they named their child while in a Burmese refugee camp in Thailand.

In fact, Wah said, scores of Asians in Myanmar and Thailand love the pop sensation.

In their petition for a name change, Bieber’s parents said they fear that American kids won’t be as receptive to little Justin Bieber.

“We made a mistake when we named him in the refugee camp and now realize he doesn’t have a good name to live in America,” his mother wrote.
