A social media user said: "I’m sure the other rule is to remember the name who your signing happy birthday for."
Another mockingly said: "Who wants to book him for your next bday?"
Some said this is not the president's first time that he slipped or confused the names of individuals or countries.
Earlier, Biden mixed up between Cambodia and Colombia and at another time he befuddled between Syria and Libya.
