bad names are fun

as reported from BBC news, a new zealand judge made a 9yr old a ward of the court so that she can change the name she hated, Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. that was what her parents named her. seriously.

these kiwi's are so incapable of giving their kids names that don't suck that the government actually has to step in.

examples of government blocked names: Yeah Detroit; Stallion; Twisty Poi; Keenan Got Lucy; Sex Fruit; Fat Boy; Cinderella Beauty Blossom; Fish and Chips (twins)

examples of allowed names: Violence; Number 16 Bus Shelter; Midnight Chardonnay; Benson and Hedges (twins)

i'm all for originality, but while my husband and i decide what to name our future children, i'm automatically ruling things out, such as, "Please Beat Me Up", "Yo Mama So Fat", "Give Me All Your Crack", "Milk Eggs Bacon And Butter", "The Doctor Called At Three Fifteen And Its Not Chlamydia" and "Future Porn Star".

good thing he's an american.
