Why are some parents so stupid?!

http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/07/24/odd.names/index.html

(CNN) -- A New Zealand judge has made a 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name can be changed from Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii, the country's national news agency reported Thursday.

Family Court Judge Rob Murfitt listed a series of unusual names that New Zealand parents had given their children, and said he was concerned that such strange monikers would create hurdles for them as they grew up.

"It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap," the New Zealand Press Association quoted the judge as saying.

Among the names Murfitt cited: twins named Benson and Hedges -- after a brand of cigarettes; Violence; and Number 16 Bus Shelter.

Some parents had named children after six-cylinder Ford cars, the news agency reported.

The Registrar General of Births, Deaths and Marriages said in a statement that it had rejected names including Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Stallion, Twisty Poi -- a staple food in Polynesian cuisine -- and Sex Fruit.

A lawyer for Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii said the girl is so embarrassed by her name that friends know her as "K."

Last month, an judge in the U.S. state of Illinois allowed a school bus driver to legally change his first name to "In God" and his last name to "We Trust."

But an appeals court in the state of New Mexico ruled against a man -- named Variable -- who wanted to change his name to a two-word phrase that contains a four-letter expletive and expresses opposition to censorship.

Why would parents even set their kids up like that? I think some parents just name their kids just to name them and not really think about what can happen in the future.

Hahahahaha....

Actually back home parent would give their children like 5 names. Like, Marie Angeles Michelle Imelda Olivia B. San Gabriel. Good thing it wasn't as bad as "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii"

I think this is fine. some car names are cool. especially if they have meaning behind it.

Last month, an judge in the U.S. state of Illinois allowed a school bus driver to legally change his first name to "In God" and his last name to "We Trust."

Only in America would people allow this.. especially in the south east parts of the US. although Illionois isn't south..

Number 16 Bus Shelter

Are you serious? I wonder why she got that name?? Maybe she was conceived there? Or born there. Why else would you name your kid after a place like that?

My wife is a public school teacher. A couple years ago, she had a kid in her class whose last name was Davidson, and the kid's parents were both bikers.

Yep, they named him Harley. :crazy2:

Only in America...

That is true but how do you think those kids will be treated when they grow up? That can easily kill a kids self esteem. he/she will grow up hating their parents for setting them up!

Thats like torture for 18 years.
