You Can't Name Your Kid 'Nutella' In France

You Can't Name Your Kid 'Nutella' In France

We're used to hearing about celebrity kidswith, let's say ... unique ... baby names.

Jermaine Jackson named his son Jermajesty.Gwyneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple. Beyonce named her daughter Blue Ivy. And we haven't forgotten about Kim Kardashian namingher daughterNorth West, either.

The unique names aren't limited to Hollywood. Over in France, twoparents have come up with somethingnutty. Pun intended.

They were hoping to spread the happy and name their childNutella. Yeah, like the Italian chocolate hazelnut spread .

The Local saysajudge didn't think it was such a good idea andsuggested the name Ella would be more appropriate.

"A judge ruled that it 'wasn't in the best interests of the child'and that she would risk 'being mocked.'"

This all mightseem a bit strange to American parents, but in France, if a child's name is for lack of a better term weird, theirparents might not be allowed to go forward with it.

A judge can shoot the name down,as in theNutella case. The Independent reports the same court ruled out the name "Fraise" for another child. Fraisetypically means "strawberry" but can also mean something more derogatoryas part ofa slang phrase.

But the fact those parents were denied has, of course, led to plenty of headlines. Our favorite was "caught in a jam." Clever.

I've heard of Abcde (pronounced ab-see-day)

I also knew a guy named Phoreh (pronounced four-eh). And his mother named him that because he was born in hospital room 4-A.

I've heard of Shithead (pronounced shi-theed)

People who name their kids glamour and "unique" names are like people who take endless selfies. Narcissists

This guy needs to be castrated. He has nine children with five women and has said:

Im not allowed to have children because Im a Nazi, Heath Campbell, 40, told the Daily News. Thats what theyre saying. Well, Ill stop making them when they stop taking them.

The newspaper article where I got that quote was a story regarding the baby girl he named Eva Braun.

The parents can appeal this judge's decision, and in most cases will win. Sadly.

I'm not sure how true this is, but a long time ago , a friend told me that they know of someone who's name was ..." Ima Pig"

Lol, Close enough Nona62.

Her Name was Ima Hogg,

Ima andher family were a pretty big deal in Texas back in the 18 & 1900's. There was a rumor that she had a sister called "Yura Hogg" but that part isn't true. :-)

Ima Hogg (July 10, 1882 August 19, 1975), known as "The First Lady of Texas",[1] was an American philanthropist, patron and collector of the arts, and one of the most respected women in Texas during the 20th century.[2] Hogg was an avid art collector, and owned works by Picasso, Klee, and Matisse, among others. Hogg donated hundreds of pieces of artwork to Houston's Museum of Fine Arts and served on a committee to plan the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. An enthusiastic collector of early American antiques, she also served on a committee tasked with locating historical furniture for the White House. She restored and refurbished several properties, including the Varner plantation and Bayou Bend, which she later donated to Texas arts and historical institutions who maintain the facilities and their collections today. Hogg received numerous awards and honors, including the Louise E. du Pont Crowninshield Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Santa Rita Award from the University of Texas System, and an honorary doctorate in fine arts from Southwestern University.
