Father who named children 'Adolf Hitler' and 'Eva Braun' changes own name to Hitler

What a sad blast from the past.

That story of the father naming his kids after Hitler and his wife is almost 10 years old. Those kids are probably teenagers.

Dude's a monster, but the story is making me laugh super hard, just because of how cartoonishly evil all of his kids' names are.

JoyceLynn Aryan Nation? Really?

I'm similarly confused, so this man doesn't have custody of his kids any more. Can the state / these kids foster parents have their names changed? I know the kids were only ever taken away because he was physcially abusive, but you'd figure whoever controls these kids afterwards would take advantage of the opportunity and give these kids names that aren't cheesy, racist, and oddly hilarious as fuck.

The girl with Aryan Nation in her name makes me feel bad, but I'm also laughing at how blunt it is

Punchlines aren't supposed to be that early in a story
I was literally thinking the same. fucking. thing.

"Prisoners get to see their children, murderers get to see their children. What's so horrible about being a Nazi?" Hitler was quoted as saying by the "New York Post."
reading this aloud to myself a couple times led to the following reaction

I mean, she's nominally the best off since you can basically just go through 99% of your life without even needing to have, much less proffer, a middle name.

That said, her first name is still JoyceLynn, proving that her father not only likes tact, decency, and creativity, but basic good taste.

In the US, being a nazi is protected free speech and denying the name change on political grounds would likely be a violation of his rights. I realize this sounds bizarre to literally any other OECD country. It's just one of those America things.
In Saudi they didn't allow a guy to name his daughter Ivanka. Couldn't be prouder of our absurd laws lol.
 
How do you name your son Hitler and your daughter the lover of Hitlor? That's some pervy stuff. He named another kid Aryan Nation too, this guy has no imagination.

It's not illegal to change your name to Hitler.

But I swear I've heard of trans folk being refused name changes from Jane to Jim and the like. But this guy gets to be Hitler? Makes no fucking sense to me.

How exactly does a man called Hitler get a job?

What business is willing to hire a man called Hitler?

I remember an interview with an Ecuatorian(living in Spain) whose name was Hitler and he said he didnt feel that it affected him that much.

Funny thing is his brother name was Lenin.

This makes me think of Louis C.K.

"You know what's amazing to me? You can name your kid anything you want. Isn't that incredible? There are no laws. ...There should be a couple of laws."
