how do people even let the government be in charge of this kind of crap? Who had the idea of a freaking name registry? It's like marriage, who had the bright idea of letting the government decide who could marry who?

These are personal things that government has no business being involved in. Governments should be in charge of enforcing laws that ensure safety and stability of the country and its citizens, not restricting personal freedoms. Just my two cents on the matter...

WRONG.

 

Seriously why is it so hard to understand that some parents are just stupid and name their children after completely idiotic things ?
This is obviously a measure against bullying or rather to give children a fair chance in life.

If you hit your child with a baseball bat it wouldn't be the government's business either according to your logic.
Fact is no one OWNS a child, not even the parents and if they mistreat a child in some way, it IS the government's business.


I would agree though that you should be able to re-name yourself (no matter what name) ONCE after you become an adult.
