A NZ judge makes a lass a ward of court so she can change her name from Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii.

Other names from the article, which were allowed: Violence; Number 16 Bus Shelter; Midnight Chardonnay; Benson and Hedges (twins)

Names that were not allowed: Yeah Detroit; Stallion; Twisty Poi; Keenan Got Lucy; Sex Fruit; Fat Boy; Cinderella Beauty Blossom; Fish and Chips (twins)

Apparently when my brother was born, I wanted him to be called Gentledot Bluebell. However, I was four¹. What's these people's excuse?

(I'm betting Number 16 Bus Shelter is one of these "where it was conceived" names. I googled Talula etc, wondering if it was a cruise ship. It doesn't seem so.)

edit: This is making the rounds at work. (Newspaper article, contains bad language.)

¹ Four, and still managed to come up with something classier than Midnight Chardonnay.
