When it comes to baby names, practically anything goes in the US. Very few names are genuinely off limits, but parents still have to cope with the excitement and drama of naming their child, considering the most popular baby names as well as whether or not the rest of the family would detest it.

Each state sets its naming laws, with some having stricter guidelines than others. Certain similarities exist: For example, you cannot put a number in your name in most states, and character limits frequently apply to the length of your name. However, you have the American right to name your child anything that will make them the target of jokes for the rest of their lives.

Some mandate that parents either select a name from a list of pre-approved names or ask the government to add a name to the list. Some states have passed legislation shielding children from the mockery that would arise from parents giving their children awful names.
