I'm 0-1 in the LOL-ing.
 
I was waiting for a punchline on the Kevin one that didn't come. Sausage Party was funny as fudge, although I did wonder where it was going given its name.

Names must not imply rank, resemble official titles or cause undue offence.

There's no Justice
It's an official 'No' for regal names
Court orders name change for Talula Does the Hula 
The maximum length allowed is 99 characters, to include first names, middle names and surnames. 
Justice was the most rejected name between July 2001 and May 2013. 
But, in 2015, Messiah was the most commonly rejected name, followed by King, Royal, Prince and Empress. 
Other rejected names included anything using a "/" symbol, Royahl, Rogue, Sarjant and MMMR, a Mongrel Mob acronym. 
A departmental spokesman said there was no list of "banned" names as all names registered in New Zealand must comply with the legislation. 
If a name failed to meet criteria, the proposal was reviewed by the registrar-general of births, deaths and marriages, Jeff Montgomery. 
Montgomery said there was nothing stopping parents calling their children by any name of their choosing. Legislation applied to official names, on birth certificates, passports or used formally in court, he said. 
People have the right of appeal to the Family Court for a rejected name but no one had done so, he said. 
"Most parents are serious. They think it's a name that fits their baby. They think it's a nice name. 
"There's not normally anything nasty about it. They're not intending it to be offensive." 
Montgomery said there was some flexibility. 
The name King could be permissible as a middle name, but not as a first name. 
Names must also be easily pronounced and enunciated. 
In other words, no symbols, gang acronyms or "/", but the word "backslash" could be permissible, he said. 
"People can call themselves whatever they like. 
"We might not approve Messiah but you can call your children whatever you like." 
It was not the registrar-general's job to judge, he said. 
Around 60,000 babies are born in New Zealand each year, and less than 1 per cent have their name registered personally by the registrar-general. 
In 2015, a total of 49 names were rejected.

Safe to assume that'll be 49 more people in some form of criminal/mental facility in about 16 years?

and that's where you end up with daft spellings to get those daft names...
 
Rogue - would they allow Rohg
Knight - do they allow Night/Nite
King - would they Cing
 
I have seen the name 'Martial Law' (was a person that came into NZ and this was their legal English name)

Not to mention daft parents who can't spell. The older I get the more I'm in favour for breeding licenses

You clearly haven't seen many bogan names. While your suggestions do fall into the category of bogan names, you're missing a trick by using vowels like some kind of hoity-toity upper-class piston wristed gibbon.
 
Observe:
 
Knight = Knyht or Nyt
King = Kyng or Cyng
 
 
The wife, working at a Kids Hospital in Western Sydney as she does, has seen some fucking fantastic ones:
 
Bengerman (Benjamin)
Bylynda / B'lyndah (Belinda)
Anfernee (Anthony - really, this is the winner)
Three brothers named Stratocaster, Telecaster, Marshall (guitar player, obvs)
Blayde
Various versions of Jaden/Jayden/Jaiden/Jaydin/etc
 
and so on.

How long have you got if you want to hear silly english names? I must know at least 50 Connies, Winnies, Fanny's - I've not met the elusive Fanny Pong yet, but she's out there.
 
I've worked/met a Chewbacca, a Hercules, a Gidget, a coupe of Isis, but I think the worst was a Bonito Bait.

I mention these every time names come up - twins - Benson and Hedges :idiot2:

Oh I've seen/heard plenty...just illustrating how people can get around not calling their kid a banned name by making the spelling even stupider.
 
I recently came across a Feenicks

mariner4life

people are such dumb fluffybunnies

jegga

I remember hearing on the radio police were looking for a missing kid, his name his was Rastaman . 
Apparently there's a kid called Sativa in NZ. They might as well have called him The Accused or Unemployable .

No Quarter

When my son was born one of the mid-wives said that another couple had called their kid Luke. Except spelt it "Looc". i.e. cool backwards.

They should have OD'd the parents with morphine, and given the kid to nice people.

Sorry. Sativa. You've lost me. Please explain. 
P.S. I don't think I've posted before but if I can find it I'll post up a list of names Mrs Boo came across in her job. Some MAY be ethnic... the rest ... well ... 
Will look for that tonight.

Bones

The best in that list is Superintendent.

A girl in my old flatmates class she taught - Aereola 
Although to be fair that might have been an ethnic thing too
