Some names are so bizarre, we can't believe they've ever been given to children. But a recent landmark case just went a step further by telling a mother she can't give her newborn twins the names she chose. When you see it, you'll understand why.
I wouldn't blame this judge for banning that name. What was that mother thinking? Could you imagine a teacher standing in front of the class where that child is sitting and calling out that name. I think, if it was me, I would feel sick to my stomach. Or if that girl was standing at the altar: "Do you, C........ take this man, etc"?
I agree w/ both of you & I think this line says it all - "The twins, now 8 months old, were reportedly conceived of rape. They were placed in foster care, along with their three half-siblings, due to the mother's history of mental illness and drug and alcohol abuse. "
We should have the right to name our children, but the authorities must step in to protect the children in cases of 'mental illness'.
