How High-handed Is This?

[Boxlicker101]

It's not a name I would have chosen for a child, but parents should have the right to do so without some judge butting in.

Judges should have no right to interfere in the naming of a child!
This is completely out of order.

And so much for separation of church and state!

 

[Tryharder62]

Fruit to the loop!!!

>Kim Kardashian and Kanye West - North West?

>Tennessee, son of Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth.

>Rainbow Aurora, daughter of Holly Madison and Pasquale Rotella.

How do you decide which parents are crazier, and can we then have name judges?

 

[IndieSnob]

I'm surprised you care, seeing as how the child is black.

Oh, because it's a child.

Fucking pedo.

I would say the same thing about any child.

Some shit loses you children naming priveleges. This is right on that border where I'd probably let it go but no I've seen some names where I wish someone had been "no, just no. If you want to call your kid that in private I can't stop you but you're not putting that on official doccuments."

The asshole judge should be dismissed from the bench. She obviously has never heard of the separation of church and state or thinks it doesn't apply to her adjudications.

Wasn't there a fucktard a few years back that named his son Adolf Hitler?

Should a judge have the power to change that?

I'm just curious as to what y'all think in that situation.

I remember reading about that. It didn't become public until the kid enrolled in Kindergarten or something. I believe there is also a daughter named Eva Braun. I don't think there's much to be done about it except, maybe, charge the parents with cruelty to children or something like that.

Here is something about the asshole: http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/20...egnant_plans_to_give_bany_nazi-type_name.html

It might seem a bit heavy handed but I do think that sometimes Judges or authorities need to interfere in this matter.

Some of the baby names that dickwad parents try to name their children is fdup.

What sort of parent would want to call their child anal?

 

[BoyNextDoor]

Why does naming your child even get to a judge?

They should not have been allowed to breed in the first place.

 

[patient1]

Well, a judge should be able to intercede when necessary.

There was a guy named Donald that killed himself because he couldn't take it any more. Donald Duck.

Anal and Adolph Hitler are going too far on the part of the parents, even if they happen to be enthusiasts of both. Messiah is going too far on the part of the judge, imposing personal religious views in people's personal lives.

As for the New Zealand Regs, they should lighten up a little.
Haven't they heard of jazz legend Duke Ellington, baseball great Duke Snyder or movie star Duke Wayne over there? Maybe the name "Duke" inspired them to greatness.

Yep. Without hesitation.

That's between the kids and their parents.

Who get's to decide when necessary is? Are you REALLY advocating the name police? REALLY?

Yep. Without hesitation.

Of course Sean wants the name police....himz a good little fascist!!

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

They should have gone with Handel S. Messiah...

 

[KRCummings]

That's between the kids and their parents.

The kids can't speak for themselves when they're named and they can't change it until they're 18 so it's really not between them and parents, it's just between the parents.
Not to say judges should be jumping in at every opportunity but sometimes they need to. Not in this case because the judge is a moron but if a kid is named Adolf Hitler or some shit like that and it's clearly because the parents are dicks then somebody needs to stand up for the kid.

This, if by "right" you mean "power" and before anyone asks, yes, there's a difference and yes, it's a big one.

This too.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.



Outlaw kids named Jesus and Mohammed?

 

[Recidiva]

Can we change the judge's name to "Yourtaxdollars A. Work"?

I say take it to the Supreme Court so we can see the group Facepalm.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

Whats really hilarious are the parents who cant spell the names they tag their kids with. Dontae becomes DONATE, and we're just so fucking nice we never dream of asking Mom if DONATE is what she meant.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Mercedes and Tercel

True for those under 18....post 18 though is their own bidniz and no one has to keep the name they are given.

Not to say judges should be jumping in at every opportunity but sometimes they need to.

Like when they name their baby after a religious icon?

Not in this case because the judge is a moron

Are you sure? Who get's to decide that? Who draws the line on when the state gets to come in and name your child for you? Where exactly do you draw it?

Celebrities? Inanimate objects? Food? Silly fantasy characters?? Hate icons? Motivational icons? WHERE?

Shoule everyone just be State ID: #ABC-11494234235....that's the only way you won't find something that offends someone else.

but if a kid is named Adolf Hitler or some shit like that and it's clearly because the parents are dicks then somebody needs to stand up for the kid.

Oh so if it's something you don't agree with then it's ok for the state to step in and tell you not to name your kid? How is that any different than what the judge did in this case??
