Judge says: Stop giving your kid stupid names...

Quote:
WELLINGTON, New Zealand - A family court judge in New Zealand has had enough with parents giving their children bizarre names here, and did something about it.

Just ask Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. He had her renamed.

Judge Rob Murfitt made the 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name could be changed, he said in a ruling made public Thursday. The girl was involved in a custody battle, he said.

The new name was not made public to protect the girl's privacy.

"The court is profoundly concerned about the very poor judgment which this child's parents have shown in choosing this name," he wrote. "It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap, unnecessarily."

The girl had been so embarrassed at the name that she had never told her closest friends what it was. She told people to call her "K" instead, the girl's lawyer, Colleen MacLeod, told the court.

In his ruling, Murfitt cited a list of the unfortunate names.

Registration officials blocked some names, including Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Keenan Got Lucy and Sex Fruit, he said. But others were allowed, including Number 16 Bus Shelter "and tragically, Violence," he said.

New Zealand law does not allow names that would cause offense to a reasonable person, among other conditions, said Brian Clarke, the registrar general of Births, Deaths and Marriages.

Clarke said officials usually talked to parents who proposed unusual names to convince them about the potential for embarrassment.

do you think the judge was right or that he overstepped his bounds?

The true benefit of genetics research is the potential to eliminate the trait in humans that allows them to be convinced that "Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii" is a great name for their baby.

He's right but he did step over the line. He wouldn't have to if parents weren't so retarded.

Then you have the illiterates who see "female" on the kid's hospital bracelet and think the hospital has already picked out a name, pronounced fuh-MALL-ee

Sounds like the judge got tired of idiots naming their kids ridiculous names... hurray for the kids and the judge.. Sometimes bounds need to be overstepped...Good for the judge for being normal.

Amen.

But in this case I'm forced to side with the judge. Those parents are such idiots it makes me wonder if someone has spiked the water in New Zealand with LSD or something.

I don't know man... That name is pretty fucking stupid. But people should be able to name their kids whatever they want without fear of a judge not liking it and changing it. The kid can always change her own name in the future if she wants.

Why? So the kid can grow up for 18 years so ridiculed by fellow school peers to the point of suicide before they can legally change their names?
