Help[Facts] Some other countries
in reply to a message by Cleveland Kent Evans
Spain has more or less the same naming law that other European countries (not surnames as given names, clear designation of gender, not nicknames as names...). http://civil.udg.es/normacivil/estatal/persona/PF/L40-99.htm
Portugal has a list of approved names:

Argentina has a law very similar to Spanish naming law, but the actual rule in use is a list of approved names for any province. There is the Buenos Aires city list:
http://www.buenosaires.gov.ar/registrocivil/nombres/?menu_id=28
In France, Catalan nationalists, Occitan nationalists and Basque nationalists still have problems with civil officers to use correct Catalan, Occitan or Basque names (for instance, case Alà Baylac-Ferrer, Catalan teacher at Ceret high school, vs. French governement, right now at the European Court of Human Rights: http://www.ucestiu.com/XXXVIIIUCE/diari/Diari%20de%20Prada_21agost.pdf).
Poland, Netherlands, Finland and Iceland have naming regulations, but I haven't link to they.

The article about the schoolteacher is interesting, I had no idea about any of that so Thank you!
This may sound like a silly question, but is the article written in Catalan? I've never seen any before, but I can read it pretty easily.
