peasy23 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Not in this country, I think Sweden has a law that you can't name your child something that isn't a name - a couple were barred from calling their baby Metallica a few years ago. So they named the kid Megadeth instead.Although there aren't any laws defining unsuitable names in the UK, there are guidelines which registrars can use to refuse to accept a name. You can't use anything that is deemed to be offensive, and they will also try and dissuade you from calling your child something daft, and ask you to think about the consequences of calling your child Lucifer or something in later life. On the last Scottish list I saw there was a boy called Corbyn, he should have been taken into care as soon as the registration forms were filled out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Perhaps it’s a symptom of my advancing age but while I would usually be on the side of the rebellion, sticking it to the man and up the revolution; the look of some of these wee twats and their parents make me wonder if we haven’t lost our way by discouraging bullying in schools. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac.i Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Have teachers got nothing better to do with their time than cause completely unnecessary fights over shoes and haircuts? Is it an obsession with micro-controlling others lives or would people die if pupils were allowed to shave their heads? As for some of these parents reacting as though their nasty brats are being jailed for dissent ... jesus fucking christ.The standard of spelling and grammar in each of the articles linked to would suggest otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be good if it was the little p***ks that deserve to be bullied that did get bullied, but from what I remember at school it was the quietest, most vulnerable and 'least deserving' kids who were picked on. If it was the cheeky wee arseholes on the receiving end to knock their attitude out of them then I'd be right behind a pro-bullying campaign.
