Apparently Americans don't have a monopoly on weird names for their children. A Swedish couple actually went to court in order to name their son after the little toy bricks. According to Wired.com: "In Sweden, parents are prohibited from giving their offspring legal names that are deemed offensive, unsuitable or inappropriate. This policy also bans couples from picking names that might one day embarrass their young."
No way could a name like Lego open a kid up for teasing, playground beatings, being pelted with small, interlocking plastic bricks…
People should have the right to name their children whatever they want. They should also be sane enough not to give them names that are this stupid.
He did better than his fellow Swede, who is saddled with the name "Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116." But it's pronounced Albin. Oh! I get it. The "6" is silent.
