World Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii, 9, gets court-ordered name change

[Magentix]

A judge in New Zealand fed up with parents bestowing bizarre names on their offspring has given a girl named Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii the chance to change hers.

Judge Rob Murfitt has ruled that the girl, 9, become a ward of the court so her name can be changed. The girl was involved in a custody battle between her separated parents.

In his ruling made public Thursday, Murfitt expressed concern at the "very poor judgment" shown by the parents in selecting the moniker.

"It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap, unnecessarily," said Murfitt.

The court heard that the girl was so embarrassed by her name that she never even told her friends.

"Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii" LOL, that's all I can say. Are the parents serious about these names or were they doing it just for laughs. Maybe the actual name was Talula..?

And where did this kind of tradition all started from? Names should not be named as a joke, rather it teaches children to learn to mature. Naming things like this is just a bad, bad, bad example of how children learn to face the problem.

See that girl embarrassed because of the name? That's enough to block the path to self-esteem.

Please don't tell me that the family is actually a royal family in New Zealand.
