As atrocious as some names can be, I don't find naming your child Ammbroezhia or McKinlinzlie child abuse by any means. And I LOATHE made-up, trendy, and kre8tyv names, but I surely don't think certain names should be outlawed for this reason. (Naming your child Satan or Shithead is another story...something that is seen as vulgar or offensive I think shouldn't be allowed, or there should be some guidelines maybe.) I can't imagine not having the freedom to name my child anything I want, even if that's something ridiculous like Abcde. :b Will she have a horrible life with that name? More than likely not. A little annoyance, surely, but it's not child abuse, imo, by any means. I still don't like it, but I don't think it should be illegal, either. (I feel that way about a lot of things, actually.)
