    I stole this link from a local forum.
    "A judge in New Zealand made a young girl a ward of court so that she could change the name she hated - Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii.

    Officials had blocked Sex Fruit, Keenan Got Lucy and Yeah Detroit, he said, but Number 16 Bus Shelter, Violence and Midnight Chardonnay had been allowed."

    There is someone in NZ called Number 16 Bus Shelter!? I have to make sure I put it in caps as it is someone's name.


    Names allowed

    Violence; Number 16 Bus Shelter; Midnight Chardonnay; Benson and Hedges (twins)

    Names blocked
    Yeah Detroit; Stallion; Twisty Poi; Keenan Got Lucy; Sex Fruit; Fat Boy; Cinderella Beauty Blossom; Fish and Chips (twins)

    I don't know, I find some of these hard to believe. Fish and Chips? What?

    According to this blog the name of the year, Spaceman Africa - That's an awesome name.

    Honorable mentions go to Destiny Frankenstein, Fonda Dicks, Crescent Dragonwagon and Crazy Horse Invincible.
    :roflmao:



    Know any people with interesting names?
