With our new elected leader, we will be trying more to fit in with the rest of the world view, namely western Europe's goal of international socialism. This story is for real, having first found in the National Review and easily all over the Internet. UPI reports....
Italian court: Boy cannot be named FridayThis is a government telling parents what they can and cannot name their child. God help us if the liberals deliver a Supreme Court like they have in Italy. If they did the brothers across the United States would revolt. In a family of teachers, all of whom worked in the Atlanta area the names of students have often been a topic of jovial derision.ROME, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A court in Italy ruled Wednesday that a couple cannot name their son Venerdi, which means Friday.
Italy's supreme court, the Cassation Court, said the name Friday, which is taken from the famous Robinson Crusoe character, was ''ridiculous, susceptible to irony and mockery and liable to cause serious harm to the person who bears it,'' ANSA reported. The high court said the Robinson Crusoe character is one characterized by "subservience and inferiority, who would never reach the condition of a civilized man,'' the Italian news service reported.
The judges ordered the couple to call the child Gregorio, after the saint's day he was born on.
The head of the Italian Association of Matrimonial Lawyers said Italian law mandates name changes ''when the child's name is likely to limit social interaction and create insecurity.''

Don't get me wrong, I think that it is a good thing to give a child a unique name and it IS a parent's right to do so. In my own family middle names are odd.....
- Otis
- Claude
- Tyrus
- Benice
Like the Johnny Cash song, "A Boy Named Sue" a different name can make you tough.
