What about Dingo?

Lipspinach		2012-01-06 09:37:55 AM

Isn't Anal a common Indian name?

Sybarite		2012-01-06 09:38:26 AM

But some of those that did get by the registry, according to the website, were Violence, Chardonnay and Number 16 Bus Shelter.

Fenchurch approves.

"It's pronouncedshiatheed!!!"

/old joke...

marius2		2012-01-06 09:40:03 AM

FTFA: The most common rejected name was Justice, with 49 sets of parents trying for that moniker, followed by Princess (24) and King (21).

I know someone that (successfully) named their kid King.

No, and Indian tribes, contrary to popular belief, do not name their children after the first thing they see. If they did, there'd be a lot of "Merkin Muffley" kids running around...

Oakenhelm		2012-01-06 09:42:15 AM

Number 16 Bus Shelter? Something tells me the little tyke was conceived there...

Mattevil		2012-01-06 09:42:19 AM

The colonel is inconsolable.

Happy Hours		2012-01-06 09:43:40 AM

Ha, now I want to have twins so I can name them Benson and Hedges.

I had to look up the Talula Link (new window) and from that article:

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

BurnShrike		2012-01-06 09:44:03 AM

What about naming your kid Doctor?

Koalaesq		2012-01-06 09:44:57 AM

What's wrong with Justice? It's a perfectly cromulent name.

The Bunyip		2012-01-06 09:45:39 AM

What about Anna Lee?

/But where are those good old fashion values....

I don't know how common it is, but there's an Indian doctor around here with that name.

Only if they arent banging sheep.

Flakeloaf		2012-01-06 09:48:27 AM

For some reason, my co-worker-in-law Ala recommends her friends call her something else while in Israel on business. Especially when beckoning her from some distance.

sunderland56		2012-01-06 09:48:29 AM

New Zealand parents still cannot get Anal

If they got anal, they wouldn't need to think up a baby name, would they?

Xaneidolon		2012-01-06 09:49:22 AM

It's not any of the state's business what you name your kid.

darkvstar		2012-01-06 09:49:42 AM

Argentina goes one step further. There is a list. If your baby's name isn't on it, you can't get a birth certificate. There is a reason everyone is named Pablo there

Am I missing a new meme here involving the word 'cromulent', or is it the same person? [...] is a perfectly cromulent [fill-in-the-blank]. Sounds like something Letrolle would say.

Justice is dead.....or so Jay thinks.

I believe I was thinking of Anil. But Anal's OK. Actually I love Anal.

"cromulent" is a word made up by an early episode of the Simpsons (new window). Since then it's been used all over the place.

Well, Luke my friend, what about her?

Gonna guess that superior/supreme court judges are properly addressed "Mister Justice A.B" so it would fall within the boundaries of unearned titles.

Bermuda59		2012-01-06 10:03:26 AM

So I guess Santorum would be out of the question

schatz		2012-01-06 10:05:46 AM

Thanks, Burn Shrike! This new knowledge makes me feel embiggened about my new vocabulary

I'm gonna stay and keep Anna Lee company (while I'm waitin' on the judgment day...).

BarbadoSlim		2012-01-06 10:09:19 AM

No Anal? Santorum is gonna be devastated.

I'm going to sing you a folk song about Orra Lee

I named my facebook farmville "terrier" ANUS. The problem is that you can change the name of the new born sheep or pony born in your horse paddock or sheep pen, but not your puppy. So now I am embarrased to ask for dog bones and food.......

Neobad needs you to feed his ANUS. Neobad's ANUS needs to be fed...please send ANUS some bones........Please ask your friends to send ANUS some bones. Your dog ANUS is hungry, please ask your friends to feed you ANUS. Ooops.

Seemed so cute at the time....

.....just saying.

There goes my plan to name my newborn King Lucipher Anal Princess Messiah

It's spelled, "Number 16 Bus Shelter," but it's pronounced, "Throat Warbler Mangrove".

aevert		2012-01-06 12:42:20 PM

Maybe if they tried it without the asterisk?

Aulus		2012-01-06 01:24:51 PM

My cousin's middle son married a nice gal in NZ and they live there. She's due to give birth to their first child any day now. I'm not sure what the kid's name is going to be, only that the bundle of joy is a boy. I'm sure the name is going to be fine.

/Daddy-to-be's name is Oscar
//Mommy-to-be's name is Maz (actually Maria, but she goes by the former)

Yeah, I know a guy with the middle name of King. I also know a guy who named his kids Evan and Elle.

/Why yes, he is a prick. How did you know?
