Say what?
Wow, Iceland. I didn't know you had this kind of rule. This is even stranger than your ***** Museum. |

... Wow. This is sad. I hope this poor girl gets her name back. I can't believe that the Icelandic govt denied the name Blaer. It's such a beautiful name. I for one am glad that I live in a country that lets us name our children as we wish. And for the most part we don't end up with stupid names. |

@Innus Threen
I don't know. Here in the US, we end up with people being given names that are just asking to be picked on. Can you imagine being born and your parents called you "Siemore Butz"? I even heard about this one Navy recruit whose last name was "Stain" so you can imagine how awkward it must be to be called Seaman Stain.
But then again, I'm glad our legal system allows us to change those names later on. |

That is true. And I suppose the ability to change your name is probably why I don't notice many abusive names. Either that or its just the area i live in. (also in the US) As for Stain that's also his last name so the likelihood of his parents having chosen it is less likely. |

At least he didn't have his name changed to Beezow Doo-doo Zoppitybop-bop-bop, the not-so-notorious felon convicted of paraphernalia, ********* possession, and owning a weapon.
