The Spin

This government overreach tramples on parental rights and individual expression in a society already obsessed with conformity. Parents should have the freedom to choose creative names that reflect their hopes and dreams for their children, and these "flashy" names represent healthy individualism and uniqueness-seeking behavior that has grown over the past 40 years. The restrictions will create massive bureaucratic paperwork and stifle the natural evolution of language and naming practices.
