Baby Names Gone Bad

 

GIBRALTAR, May 31, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- We all know someone that has an interesting name, but how many people do you know with the name Strawberry Field or Blanket? Last week, a priest from Germany was shocked when asked to name a baby Beginners Luck.

Apparently in Sweden all baby names need to be approved by the local tax authority. Crazy names such as Adolf Hitler, Google, Fish and Chips or Q are a few of the names that didn't make the cut. Crazy names attract a lot of attention, but do they cause actual harm? Does a kid with the name R2D2 get beaten up more often than a kid with the name Faye or James? The answer is not clear, which is why the authorities in Sweden do what they can to protect a child from being abused because of his name.

Last week, a priest from Germany was asked to baptize a new born and was shocked to hear that the parents wanted to name their son Beginners Luck. It turns out that the father, a newbie at http://www.casino.com, played his first online casino game the day his son was born and won GBP6,560. When asked about the winning, he commented, "I got lucky twice in one day. I hope this is a sign of bigger and better things to come". The parents will call their son Beagle for short.
