Name of the unborn child is always a big topic: Did you choose a name that maybe even a friend claims for yourself? Maybe to avoid strife, some parents opt for very fancy baby names. These are not always approved by the registry office.

Matt Eagle. Yes, you are reading correctly. A German registry office has now approved the name Matt-Eagle. Although the English spelling, but German pronounced the name for a party court from Mett: Maybe not necessarily the best name to start life?

In Germany, names for newborns must be registered. The more exotic the name, the higher the probability that it will be rejected. It is important that the best interests of the child are in the foreground . In some cases, this type of monitoring is also safe.

These names were banned by German registry offices: Bierstübl, Crazy Horse, Atomfried, Gastritis, Gramophone, Gucci, Clovesheini, Peppermint, Rasputin, Rosenherz, Pumpelstiltskin, Satan, Schnucki, Sputnik, Coccyx, Troublemaker, Verleihnix, Woodruff, Whiskey, Woodstock.

Besides Matt-Eagle, these names were allowed: Alemmania, Apple, Blueberry, Chanel, Dee-Jay, Despot, Emilia-Extra, Fanta, Harley, Ikea, Junior, Milka, Napoleon, Phoenix, Popo, Rapunzel, Snow White, Schokominza, Sheriff, Siebenstein, Sioux, Smudo, Solarfried, Sun, Sultan, Tarzan, Wasa, Waterloo.

Exactly why these names were approved is at the discretion of the registry offices. Whether the little Emilia-Extra or the little Popo with their names really happy, remains questionable.
