i don't think there should be name laws, but i think parents should think about what they are doing to their children by the names they choose.
Example: A man around the time of the revolution in 1770's named his daughters with strange names, the youngest with the worst; the other three i don't remember.
The last named daughter was ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANICA.
The poor girl didn't get married.

There are others i've come across while doing genealogy.

Shalom
