No more stupid kid names?

NZ Judge has 9 y.o. girl renamed

Her original name was Talulah Does the Hula From Hawaii.

I think celebs should take note of what the judge said:

I mean, you don't want yr kid to get their ass beat everyday on the playground because of their name.

Keenan Got Lucy & Sex Fruit is the name of my new band.

Cassiel, 7 minutes prior to this I just posted "Top 20 Messed Up Celeb Baby Names" to my blog. We are creepy.

Anyone who chooses to name their kid 'Number 16 Bus Shelter' should have the child removed from them, permanently. Fuckwits.

Parents in Sweden last year fought to keep their baby daughter named Metallica. They won.

Hopefully Lars won't try to sue for royalties when she starts working.

Children treat each other horribly. Who's to say if you give a kid a stupid name to be ridiculed that it won't distract other children from ridiculing them for being fat, or being skinny, being short, or tall, or having red hair, long hair, short, hair, glasses, braces, buck teeth, or missing teeth, for being too smart, for being too dumb, or any of the thousands of other things kids will ridicule them about? Arguably, its better to go through school being known has "stupidly named kid" than say, "fatty four eyes."

The only person I can think of from elementary school who is probably horribly scarred from having a dumb name was the dude whose last name was McKracken. The fact that he was forever linked to a story about being caught masturbating in the bathroom probably had more to do with the fact that his last name rhymed with whackin' then him actually ever being caught jerking off. Nonetheless, Whackin' McKraken he was.

Violence might be a badass.

unless he's a total wimp. god, that would suck.

Your child's name is not an accessory...it is their name.

You ought to be fucking flogged for giving your kid a stupid name. Family names are okay...ethnic names are okay...but it's the novelty names that piss me off.

So many times...you hear the parents try to justify it by saying "I want my child to be an individual". If you want your child to be an individual...take an interest in their lives, be a good parent...and support their hopes & wishes...and they'll be an individual.

The only think you;re doin gby giving your kid a stupid name...is ensuring their future as a fry cook or a stripper.

I remember all the kidsboys of the Bates family. Not that any of them had much going for them anyway. Yeah, that really helped them grow into model citizens.

Exactly.

I'm naming my kid "God". Just to see what happens.

GG Allin (born Jesus Christ Allin) turned out fine.

Florida, as usual, shines.

he'll be a coke dealer, maybe!

Wow. On top of his ridiculous name, that kid is going to have to grow up in Florida.

Hey, I grew up in Florida, and I'm...oh, yeah I see your point.

That also happened in Florida.

"Yeah Detroit" is pretty great.

I heard a story several years ago about a woman whose first language was not English wanting to name her newborn daughter Gonorrhea because it sounded so lyrical and feminine.

And then there were my cousins' friends, Latrine and Placenta. No joke.

That's straight out of Cormac McCarthy's Child of God. The man who could barely read read and only owned a medical dictionary, so he named his daughters after body parts. Not that I'm saying that about your aunt and uncle mind, just reminded me of that novel.

Cousins' FRIENDS, not my cousins.

I have actually witnessed a little girl skipping out into the street and her mother yelling at her "LATRINE! GET YO ASS BACK HERE!" I was dumbfounded.

I've seen a Robocop. An Usmail, a Onedollar, several Ladydis, one Nikita Khrushchev, and then there's this:

Are you thinking what I'm thinking, baby?
