    In Iceland I think there’s a law against giving your child an embarrasing name. It’s one law that I understand

      We actually have a committe called “Mannanafnanefnd” which rougly translates to "Human name committee"and if you want to use a non-typical name for your child you have to apply for permission from them.

        I heard that names have to be -son or -dottir able. Is that still true?

      a completely understandable law to prevent mental stress/depression down the line.

      In France it’s the person who record the name that can report it if it seems inappropriate.

      Then there is a procedure to decide if the name can stay at it is or if it needs to be changed
