Can't name them all Chewbacca.  I have no idea what to do with a female child but Chewy's brothers would be D'Brickashaw, Bort, Joey Joe-Joe Junior Shabadoo, and "The Postmaster General".

Jesus is a very, very common name in latin american countries.

I know. That doesn't change the premise that you are naming your son after a famous dead person that might prejudice others.
 
Its more a pronounciation thing.......in english its "geesus" in spanish its "haysus"......so in spanish it may not carry the same weight since the majority of the world know it as "geesus".
I agree though an english speaking family naming their son Jesus would be.....weird.

Well I am a fan of the George Foreman school on naming your sons all the same....Chewbacca is an awesome name, plus you can call them Chewy till about the age of 7-8......

I can understand if it's cultural norm, like Mohammed. But in a secular, anglophone nation, it's a little weird.

I'm naming my first male Lucifer, and my first female Penis Face.
 
For my other 17 children the names are undecided, but frankly Adolf Hitler is a bit uncreative. Besides, then I have to change my last name which is alot of paper work. Besides, I must think of my daughter...Penis Face Hitler just doesn't roll off the tongue smoothly.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Children don't don't need names. They need discipline and a job at 12. That's it.

Parents are crazy. But it's their right. Then the child when he gets older can change his name to whatever he wants.

In my stupid country there are plenty of "Stalins" and none says anything but a couple of "Hitlers" were very famous cases...

Anyway, names in general are unnecessary...

But what about the torment the child will go through as he's growing up? I think it is child abuse and it is not a parent's right to do whatever they damn well please with their or to their children.  They are not a property interest. 

Of course, I'm against white supremacists being able to breed in the first place. 
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

That sounds like the eugenics that said white supremacists espouse.

Of course, if I ever had a son I would name him Big Daddy Spankbottom.

A child should be quite ready to express his desire to change his name from an early age. It's the law that makes him suddenly become intelligent at 00:00 in the morning of his 18th birthday.

I on the other hand am in favor of big generalized copulations of all colors and flavors...
