HOLLAND TOWNSHIP, N.J. - Three New Jersey siblings whose names have Nazi connotations have been placed in the custody of the state, police said Wednesday.
Holland Township Police Sgt. John Harris said workers from the state Division of Youth and Family Services removed 3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell and his younger sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, from their home Tuesday.
Harris said family services did not tell police the reason the children were removed. Agency spokeswoman Kate Bernyk said it does not comment on specific cases.
The children and their parents, Heath and Deborah Campbell, received attention last month when a supermarket bakery refused to put Adolf Hitler Campbell's name on a birthday cake.
Yes.

Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell
What's the Nazi connotation of this name?

so it's possible to give your children any name you want in the US ? In France, for instance, it is not. The administration has the right to refuse a name that's considered problematic...

Saw this last night. Without wishing to invoke Carlin's Law, I gotta say that the State taking people's kids away only because they've given them stupid offensive names - if that's the truth of this - is out of order. But I can't believe that's the case. Confidentiality could cover a lot of reasons.

Yeah, obviously those people are batshit, but the state wouldn't put the kids into care just for having daft names.
― Yehudi Menudo (NickB), Thursday, 15 January 2009 10:24 (seventeen years ago)
you'd have to assume that the names are really just an indicator though.
misspelt himmler?
― Redknapp out (darraghmac), Thursday, 15 January 2009 10:28 (seventeen years ago)
Yeah, it's the same in Finland. I remember back in the late 80s some parents tried to name their kid "Soviet Union", but were refused by the authorities.
― Tuomas, Thursday, 15 January 2009 10:28 (seventeen years ago)
And yet the authorities turned a blind eye to wanking in front of babies.

Well it does make you go blind, so I here

Makes the baby go blind if it hits it in the eyes.

I was reading about this yesterday, the consensus was that there's probably evidence of illegal drug use in the family. Esp b/c I saw a quote from an officer somewhere that the children's removal was not related to their names or the controversy over the birthday cake.

you know, giving kids an intentionally shitty name so they'll be mercilessly taunted and victimized in school might be a form of abuse.
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Thursday, 15 January 2009 17:37 (seventeen years ago)
still not grounds for taking the kids, though
― ^likes black girls (HI DERE), Thursday, 15 January 2009 17:41 (seventeen years ago)
You're right, it's probably not against the law, but it is so dangerously provocative.....
