Do you think parents should have unlimited choice when it comes to naming thier children?
Or do you think that some of the names kids get now are cruel and unneccesarily odd!?
Whats the strangest name you have ever come across?
Personally I think parents should be able to name their kids whatever they want but I also think they need to have a bit more consideration for the child when it is growing up.. Sometimes names which sound strange at first can turn out to be beautiful (I know a little girl called Harvest Savannah - odd at first but really grew on me), and other names which can sound very cutesy at first will just sound ridiculous once the child grows up and has to get a real job etc...
I would consider excluding celebrities children from this dicussion as it could be said they grow up in different circles where their name may not seem so odd but I think sometimes celebs can go a bit too far and ignore the fact that their child might never want to be in the spotlight (bit hard with names like Fifi Trixibelle and Apple...)
So what are your thoughts?
