Yes it's a stupid name but it's really up to the people who name there kid that, surely?

Nope. Humans are morons. One would have thought the 20th century proved it pretty clearly. They need to be protected from themselves. 

Government has far more to worry about than some idiots names. A persons name should not be of any concern to the government at all, with big and important issues like war and the economy about

Idiots are the ones doing the naming, if they chose a name like "Light Breeze".

I do get the girl's point though. She thought that really was her name. I wouldn't like it if someone suddenly told me my name is not *CENSORED*.

But it's the parents' fault. They shouldn't have been defiant and should have given her a proper, legal name in the first place. In legal terms, "Light Breeze" is nothing more than a nickname.
