I once went out with a Nurse Pain and Nicole Kindman name her girl Sunday Rose, But everyone wants to call her Sunday Roast - which is undertandable because we all know how yummy little cute kids are!
People around the world with unusual names are reeling at news that courts can now legally change your name - even without your permission.
This is the finding of a court in New Zealand that decided that the pretty name “Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii” was a social disability that caused the eight year-old child distress and therefore had to be changed.
Judge Murfitt said that names were a very real part of a person’s existence.
He said he has heard of other names like Midnight Chardonnay, Number 16 Bus Shelter and Violence.

matte, I like this story. It's good stuff. You know Matte, Parents should only names their kids based on how much money they have for their kids present and future therapy.

I love this story. For some reason I get a kick out of weird names. I thought celebrities were dominating the field of humiliating children by way of their names, but apparently there are some everyday "normal" people who are just as creative...
