What the blank blank blank is wrong with these people?

This New Zealand couple first wanted to name their newborn son 4Real, but the name (Thank God) was rejected by the government registry. Now, since they lost the battle to name their child such an idiodic name that would make him suffer in his childhood, undoubtably through constant teasing, and perhaps his adulthood, in which also undoubtably he will endeavor to change his name, they now want to name the poor child Superman, also having the same results as the name 4Real. JHC! Does anyone think these people are right in their heads? They could use either of those names as a nick-name for their baby, but as a legal first name??

This is an AOL link, so if it doesn't show for some, I can copy-paste the story for yall. Let me know. Thanks.
I put this in Politics because the parents have brought the issue into politics but using a court of law to fight to name their son Superman.
Answers:
No they shouldn't it is hard enough for those that were born during the 60's to cope with names such as Rain, Spring, and so on that their parents gave them from the hippie era. To name a child a name that is used mostly in slang or superheroes will carry unwarranted cruelty by other children making fun of them.

Hey my buddy named his son Anakin.
That can't have been an easy way to grow up.
It's got to be self-fulfilling getting your butt kicked daily is likely to turn anyone into a Darth Vader when they get older.

There are some VERY strange people in this world. I know someone who actually named their daughter Seven. You think she won't get teased? Another girl I know has the last name of Dick. Know what her first name is? Patience. Now come on people!!

I was at the Woodstock Rock Festival. A baby was born there and her parents named her Star Loki Zero High Love Cold Wild Fire Dark.
To my astonishment, I ran across her in 2005. She is 38 years old now, and is a very successful lawyer. She goes by the name of "Star." So people do survive.

well first of all Superman is a registered trademark. I believe DC comics still have control, unless some film company obtained the rights. On a side note Adam West cannot wear the cowl he wore on Batman (60's TV show) because Warner Bros bought the rights to Batman.) Anyway back on point- just how upset does this really make you? what do you really care? Its their son. Let them name him whatever they want. I agree its stupid but I would not be upset about it. And yes there are a lot of stupid names out there. It just seems to me that there are bigger issues for us to get our feathers ruffled over.
