I was just reading a reply from you to the "What's up with the "Y" post.

You said "But Swedes are conservatives, we don't like to weird names, I am still in chock filled awe over the family that has gotten Amazon, Gizmo and Taylor approved as names. I thought that was impossible, most such name are often not allowed."

I was just wondering if in Sweden the government has to approve names or something. Or do you mean the name wouldn't have been accepted by family,friends, etc.

Just Curious!
