There is no need for names to evolve.

Based on what you said, let the kid have a proper name and then they themselves can change to weird as they wish later. Stupid parents have no right to give a stupid joke name to others.



I propose a compromise:

- Parents may only choose names for their children from a list of the top 1000 or so names in whatever country parents choose

- It is permissible to change your own name to anything you like
