SMH at the parents that named their kids these names (imagine introducing yourself to others as these names--"Hi, my name is __"):
Amen
Lucifer
Pharaoh
Milady
General
Lemon
Vanity
Havoc
Furious
Slayer
Isis
I-am
Boy
Son
Girl
Babyboy
Babygirl


These names are ridiculous!  How do you think they are pronounced?   ;D
Abcde
L-a

There needs to be laws about the names that can and cannot be given to children because some names invite a "lifetime of mockery."  For example, if you give your kids outrageous names, which subject them to every day ridicule and mockery, you are deemed unfit to be a parent and your children should be taken away from you.  Too bad there are no such laws in America (yet).  Poor kids!

Hi, my name is Jesus.
What? Is that really you, God?
No, my parents name me after the savior.
Dude, save me from temptation. I'm troubled.
I'm sorry. Not that kind of God. I'm human like you.
Ooooh really? Walk on water then.
Again, I'm not God. *facepalm*

Zeus.

If he ever becomes a polygamist, his parents shouldn't blame him. The God Zeus not only had heavenly wives but also earthly affairs.

Yes, three of his children were demigods: Perseus, Hercules, and Kratos

There needs to be laws about the names that can and cannot be given to children because some names invite a "lifetime of mockery."

There are:

"In the United States, almost anything goes when it come to baby names. Naming laws are actually set by the state, and some states have more requirements than others. There are some commonalities: In most states, you can't put a numeral in your name, for example, and there are often character limits to how long you can make a name. (In Minnesota, you're limited to "only" 150 characters.)"

Examples of illegal names in America: Messiah, Adolf Hitler, 1069.
