NAME

What baby names have been banned in New Zealand?

A)Justice.

B)Real.

C)Mafia No Fear.

D)All of the above... and more! In New Zealand, parents have to check with the government before they can name their baby, and the country's Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages have released an updated list of 77 forbidden baby names. Other rejected names on the list include Lucifer, Constable, Messiah, Anal and any sort of punctuation (yes, some parents wanted to name their kid "." [full stop] and "*" [asterisk]). The government states that acceptable names must not cause offense to a reasonable person, not be too long and can't be an official title or rank. In 2008, a family court ordered parents to change the name of their nine-year-old daughter, who they had called "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii".
