i feel for that child

Better go see a shrink then....having feelings for new-born children is a bit suspect!

But on the real,I agree with you...such names shouldn't be allowed. It'll hurt the kid in the future.

word. i think in sum countries u could not just name ur kid after some fruit

Over here in the Netherlands there are certain rules to name-giving,I believe. You can't give your kid names of objects or sexist,racist or otherwise offensive names. To use my example of jokingly proposing naming my kids Ashtray,Conquerer and BigMac, BigMac and Ashtray wouldn't be allowed and Conquerer might just pass the test.

Of course,if you wanna give your kid a bad name,there are more ways. For example, a teacher of mine is called Ab Louws (pronounced: applause) Wether that was pure coincedence or parental malice,I don't know.

That ain't all that really - taken into consideration the fact that in England there is a guy who changed his name into Playstation 2. First name "Playstation", last name "2". Not spelled "two", but the actual number 2. So Apple ain't really that bad of a name after you've heard of Mr. Playstation 2.

Engineering geek names son version 2.0
Sunday, February 1, 2004 Posted: 5:15 PM EST (2215 GMT)

Jon Blake Cusack and his wife, Jamie, cuddle with their newborn son, Jon Blake Cusack 2.0, on Friday. 

HOLLAND, Michigan (AP) -- Tacking Jr. or II onto a boy's name is too common, a new father decided, so the self-described engineering geek took a software approach to naming his newborn son. 
Jon Blake Cusack talked his wife, Jamie, into naming their son Jon Blake Cusack 2.0. 
Version 2.0 was born Tuesday at Holland Community Hospital, and the proud parents took him home Friday. 
"I wanted to find something different to name him besides Jon Blake," Cusack, who is self-employed with Westshore Design and Cusack Music, told The Holland Sentinel. 
He said he had the idea for a few months, and spent the better part of that time persuading his wife to go along. 
Jamie Cusack said she didn't concede until the week before the birth. She said she had "picked out the theme of the baby's room and done other things. I decided to let Jon have this." 
After 2.0's birth, the Cusacks sent out an electronic birth announcement. 
"I wrote in the birth announcement e-mail stuff, like there's a lot of features from version 1.0 with additional features from Jamie," Jon Cusack said.
