ivreal
A New Zealand couple, who wanted to register their newborn child, has been told that their selected name for the boy ‘4real’ is against the rules: Names cannot start with a number.
Registrar-General Brian Clarke said the rules are designed to prevent names that are “likely to cause offense to a reasonable person.”
How a name that starts with a number is likely to offend a reasonable person is anyone’s guess.
Anyway, if the rule is going to be enforced, I’d like to suggest to the new parents to use Roman numerals:
IVREAL
