Jaleesa Martin, of Newport Tennessee, went to court with her husband in a dispute over their child Messiah's last name. They left the court having a baby with a new first name, because the "judge" didn't think the baby deserved such a special name.

The "judge" decided that only Jesus could be named Messiah, because in the community where the baby lives, there are Christians who might not be pleased. To be precise, "It could put him at odds with a lot of people and at this point he has had no choice in what his name is," Child Support Magistrate Lu Ann Ballew said , explaining why she re-named the baby Martin DeShawn McCullough.


In fact, the name, Messiah, has been growing in popularity and according to Social Security, it is the 387th most popular name, with over 700 given that name last year. That's up from a rank of 611 in 2011.


BBC reports,
"The word Messiah is a title and it's a title that has only been earned by one person and that one person is Jesus Christ," the judge added.
The baby's mother Jaleesa Martin told WBIR she would appeal against the judge's order.
"I didn't think a judge could change my baby's name because of her religious beliefs," she said.
She said she chose the name not because of its religious connotations, but because she liked how it sounded with her two other children's names, Micah and Mason.

That judge will be in serious trouble if this child ends up being The Messiah :pope:

I vaguely remember Frank Zappa naming one of his children God...boy would he be in trouble with this Judge. The case will eventually be thrown out and the judgment canceled, but nothing will happen to the Judge. I got in trouble with a Judge in a very important trial for refusing to promise to tell the truth 'so help me God', but asked for a non-religious pledge of truthfulness. There is little [in some sections, no] separation of Church and State in the USA....and then there is the issue of the 'Religion of Americanism', aside from that.

I think he settled for Moon Unit and Dweezil.

Quote:I vaguely remember Frank Zappa naming one of his children God.

Peter that was Grace Slick and Paul Kantor.They settled for the name China.

Quote:Slick was married twice - to Gerald "Jerry" Slick, a cinematographer, from 1961 to 1971, then to Skip Johnson, a Jefferson Starship lighting designer, from 1976 to 1994. She has one child - a daughter, China Wing Kantner (born January 25, 1971).[SUP][13][/SUP][SUP][14][/SUP]
China's father is former Jefferson Airplane guitarist, Paul Kantner, with whom Slick had a relationship from 1969 to 1975. During her hospital stay after the baby's birth, Slick sarcastically told one of the attending nurses that she intended to name the child "god", with a lowercase "g", as she "wished for the child to be humble". The nurse took Slick seriously, and her report of the incident caused a minor stir,[SUP][15][/SUP][SUP][16][/SUP] as well as the creation of a rock-and-roll urban legend.[SUP][17][/SUP]
