Whether you are picking that all important name for your new-born child or wanting to change your own name for whatever reason, it is important to note that some titles just are not allowed.
Unique and uncommon names have been rising in popularity over the years, often seeing a change from tradition to expression. All births in England, Wales and Northern Ireland must be registered within 42 days of the child being born and although parents have a free reign when it comes to naming their child, some names can be refused if they are deemed 'offensive'.
According to the UK Deed Poll Service, some people 'like the idea of having a fun name'. In the past, Deed Polls have been issued for fun names such as Jellyfish McSaveloy, Toasted T Cake, Nineteen Sixty-Eight, Hong Kong Phooey, Daddy Fantastic, One-One-Eight Taxi, Ting A Ling, Huggy Bear, Donald Duck, Jojo Magicspacemonkey and James Bond.
