You Named Your Daughter Tula Does The Hula From Hawaii? You’re shitting me…
Some people should not be allowed children. That list of people includes anyone who names their child any of the following:
Tula Does The Hula From Hawaii
Fish and Chips
Yeah Detroit
Keenan Got Lucy
Sex Fruit
Number 16 Bus Shelter
Fortunately some countries have judges who can step in and stop these people. New Zealand is one of them. From the Associated Press:
WELLINGTON, New Zealand – A family court judge in New Zealand has had enough with parents giving their children bizarre names here, and did something about it.
Just ask Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. He had her renamed.
Judge Rob Murfitt made the 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name could be changed, he said in a ruling made public Thursday. The girl was involved in a custody battle, he said.
The new name was not made public to protect the girl’s privacy.
“The court is profoundly concerned about the very poor judgment which this child’s parents have shown in choosing this name,” he wrote. “It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap, unnecessarily.”
The girl had been so embarrassed at the name that she had never told her closest friends what it was. She told people to call her “K” instead, the girl’s lawyer, Colleen MacLeod, told the court.
