An Indonesian news presenter

Happy birthday to Astro, our favorite robot hero!

Well, in Indonesia, we have a news presenter whose name is... Joy Astro. Very close enough to the name "Astro Boy," isn't it?

Wonder how his parents came up with that last name since Astro is not a common name for human, I guesa Oh, and I am also an Indonesian.

Also how did his parents get inspirations for giving that name, and if either his parents or himself is a fan of AB.

Well, I once heard someone in Indonesia, whose parents are huge fans of Tetsuwan Atom, had Astro as his name. I just realized that it's a common thing for parents to name their children after someone/something they favorite, like a famous soccer player or a fictional character, for example
