I talked about strange names and disputes in naming a child decently.
In another recent news an Italian court has ruled that a couple could not name their son "Friday" and ordered that he instead be called Gregory after the saint whose feast day he was born on.
Well, I don't think Friday is such a bad name. Or at least it is much better than "4real" or "@". The child's mother was quoted as saying: "My son was born Friday, baptised Friday, will call himself Friday, we will call him Friday but when he gets older he will have to sign his name Gregory".

it seems to me that "friday" is within reason. what about "friday" in robinson crusoe? friday would probably be my pick out of all the days of the week...
ResponderEliminarI wonder how can people choose such strange names for their children! Don't they guess that a strange and funny name can affect a child's life - peers will laugh at him/her and he/she will have lots of complexes. I think, the court was right. And the name Gregory seems me to be much better than silly Friday.
