New Zealand officials have released a list of baby names put forward by parents that were rejected because they were too bizarre or offensive, including Lucifer
and Mafia No Fear
.
The list of 77 names reveals one child was set to be called Anal
before the Department of Internal Affairs vetoed the proposal, while another narrowly avoided being dubbed .
or full stop.
Other names on the list included 4Real
, V8
, and Queen Victoria
.
In some cases, parents appeared to have lost any inspiration for coming up with a moniker for their offspring, wanting to call the latest addition to the family simply 2nd
, 3rd
or 5th
.
The department’s rules forbid any name that might imply a child holds an official title or rank, so King
, Duke
and Princess
were among those that had been turned down most since 2001 — via redwolf.newsvine.com
