What's in a Name? A heck of a lot!


DON'T EVER NAME YOUR CHILD REGIS. DO YOU REALLY WANT PEOPLE TO THINK OF THAT WHEN THEY SAY YOUR KID'S NAME?


From the time we’re little kids, we’re told not to judge a book by its cover. While I agree with that mindset, I feel it’s completely okay to judge a person by their name. Before you get your panties in a bunch and call me a judgmental jerk, consider a recent ruling by a New Zealand judge.
This judge saved a nine-year old girl from a lifetime of questions like “What kind of drugs do your parents do?” after ruling that her name was too ridiculous to stand. Her parents named her (are you sitting down?), Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. But the judge thought that might impede her future. *clap clap clap*
TALULA DOES THE HULA FROM HAWAII. Just name the kid Daddy Forgot To Wear A Condom and get the whole thing over with.
People will say, “But Apple Paltrow will be fine”. Apple Paltrow will be fine because she will bathe in hundred dollar bills, NOT because people will learn to accept freakish names. Frankly, our society is far too judgmental to accept names like (apparently someone actually named their kid this) Iam Ahore. Could you imagine? “It’s time to open your Christmas presents Iam Ahore!” Unacceptable.

i must concur 100% Mr. Coyler. Celebs just simply shouldn't breed. I don't even want to know what the Jolie/Pitt kids names are. What ever happened to Steve or Bill or Rudigger. those were classics. Try to tell me that you don't have an Uncle Bill. please don't socially desecrate all over your child.

THE worst birth announcement I ever read was: DICK, Harry.

How's that for a name?
