That is antisemitic. "Judas" is just the greek version of "Judah", a common Hebrew name. Of course, the entire story of Judas is made up in order to shift blame away from the Romans, or part of the story that was invented for this. When Christianity broke away from being a Jewish sect, and they wanted to convert more Romans, they rewrote a large number of teh stories to shift the blame from the Romans to Jews. They also did their best to hide the fact that Jesus was very much connected to the anti Roman factions in Judea. Crucifixion was a punishment for rebels and escaped slaves (and pirates), so Jesus would have had to be convicted of rebellion, and the two "thieves" were also almost certainly rebels as well.

Of all names big and small, those that use a creative orthography suck the most. Trashedeigh is, although certainly somewhat true to those named so, just not a name you want to read on your passport. It's a tragedy to your parents to have you ... ok, I get that many, if not even the majority of, children were conceived by accident, including me, and I'm ok with that ... but ... that's a tad above, huh? Ok, THAT name, I haven't read in this list, but still - I've read it. There are people who are ... so...

Captain Leone Sextus Denys Oswolf Fraudatifilius Tollemache-Tollemache de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache (1884-1917). The first Tollemache is pronounced differently from the second, as is the third, from the fourth.

My daughter has a name that is not necessarily common, but is well known, in my country. However, if you're from another country (for example, in the country where I currently live), it is difficult for people to pronounce if they read it, or spell it if they hear it. She is going to have trouble with it, but all of the people I know with names like that, they sometimes go through a period as a teenager when they don't like it, but they've *always* ended up liking that they have a name that is a bit different. I haven't tried to name her with some ridiculous name, but with a name that reminds her of her cultural heritage. She's going to grow up in my wife's country, and it's important to both my wife and I that she has as strong ties to my country as she can (until she grows up and decides on how strong she wants her ties to be).

I have a common name with an odd spelling and was named when no one really spelled things 'creatively'. This led me to think that my teachers were all stupid because they couldn't spell my name correctly. I was around ten when I realized that my name was different than the normal spelling when I had thought before that my spelling was the right/correct/only way to spell my name. I never got a single personalized item as a child, my brother Jeff on the other hand... This was when 'personalized items' were whatever was in the bike plates, keyrings, and mugs in very pre-internet times.

In Sweden we have laws what we can and can't name our children. It can't be a brand name or a name that can induce obvious bullying or disgrace (like Hitler or poo). It goes before a commitee and gets reviewd before accepted. And you have to do it before the child turns 9 months old otherwise you get a fine for every month beyond that. It happend to my sister. She and her husband could never agree on a name in time on any of their 4 children. Just continued to call the child baby lol.

And before my time there was a family near where I live with a bunch of girls, and no boys. They said toward the end they ran out of names so they started numbering them; the last two were named Ada and Nina.
