Can you name your baby ‘Methamphetamine Rules’ in Australia? | Australia news | The Guardian
Are there any names you can’t legally call your baby in Australia?
It’s a question many wanted answered by the ABC’s new show What the FAQ, says Kirsten Drysdale, a journalist at the public broadcaster. So when Drysdale gave birth to her third son in July, she decided to put it to the test.
...
Drysdale said she had been deciding between “Methamphetamine Rules” and “Nangs Rule”, referring to the Australian slang for nitrous oxide canisters used to get a fleeting high.
But she decided against Nangs Rule in case the approver at the registry didn’t know what Nangs were and it was approved.

For the folks outside Aus, and for the ones over here who slept on this show: It was for an informational comedy show called WTFAQ. They take viewer questions, research the facts, and present them in in an entertaining way. They cover everything, like:
Does feeling cold making you more likely to catch cold?
Does my dog love me?
If dolphins are mammals, where are their tits?
Do the Sovereign Citizens have any basis in legal reality?
Why do Greek statues have such little pee-pees?
Some of the stuff is Australia-specific, but most of it is internationally applicable.
So a show on the national broadcaster wanted to demonstrate how outlandish baby names will get rejected by the government.
Only problem is, when they had one of their journos submit a name that should have absolutely been rejected for her newborn kid, the government just... approved it.
Which means her newborn baby child is now legally known as 'Methamphetamine Rules' and thanks to how NSW operates even if she changes the name it'll still be on the kid's birth certificate for life.

[ad_1] ABC journalist Kirsten Drysdale is currently in a newborn bliss bubble, having recently welcomed her third child with her husband Chris.There’s just one problem. Her son’s legal name is Methamphetamine Rules.The NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages let the name slip through the cracks during the submission process, despite offensive terms being prohibited. A spokesperson told news.com.au they’ve since “strengthened” their system to avoid it happening again.OK, mistakes happen, but why would Drysdale name her child Methamphetamine to begin with? The Mackay-born TV presenter had been working on a story for the ABC’s WTFAQ program, which aims to investigate the answers to viewers’ burning questions.‘What can I legally name my baby?’ has come up consistently.While researching for the story, which will air Wednesday at 9pm, a then heavily-pregnant Drysdale was trying to decipher what the Registrar default names a child if the parents’ first submission is rejected.She wasn’t getting a clear answer from the government body’s media team, and as she was about to give birth, Drysdale decided it was perfect timing to take matters into her own hands.“We thought, what is the most outrageous name we can think of that will definitely not be accepted?” Drysdale tells news.com.au.“Methamphetamine Rules we thought would surely get rejected, and then when it does, we can find out what name the Registrar chooses. “It was really just a lighthearted, curious attempt to get an answer to this question.”Imagine Drysdale’s horror when her initial online submission listing her son’s fake name was approved “very quickly”.Weeks later, Drysdale got quite the push present when the official birth certificate arrived in the mail, with ‘Methamphetamine Rules’ listed as her son’s given name.“I don’t know how it slipped through,” Drysdale said. “I’m not sure if someone was overworked, or if it was automated somewhere.“Or possibly, maybe they thought Methamphetamine was a Greek name.“They haven’t really given us a clear answer.”Thankfully, the Registrar admitted it was a rare oversight, and Drysdale’s son’s real, “normal” name should be approved any day now.“Baby Meth’s real name … I’m not publicly disclosing it, because I don’t want it to be attached to this,” she laughed.“It’s a beautiful name and I can tell you has nothing to do with class A drugs.“We think it’ll be a very unique 21st birthday present to tell him this story.”[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFN_GOz4QXE[/embed]A spokesperson for NSW Births, Deaths and Marriages said it had refurbished its process in the wake of the situation, in a bid to ensure such names don’t slip through the cracks.They added that names registered at birth remain on the register “forever, even if the name is formally changed”. However, in this “highly unusual” circumstance, the Registrar is helping Drysdale correct the name.“The Registry has since strengthened its processes in response to this highly unusual event,” the spokesperson continued.“The vast majority of parents do not choose a name for their newborn baby that is obscene, offensive or contrary to the public interest.”As a general rule, names that are prohibited in most states and territories across Australia are ones that are offensive or contrary to the public interest.Swear words, sex acts and slurs of any kind are also black-listed, as are official titles such as Doctor, Queen, King and Prime Minister.While there are clear restrictions, the individual registrars judge names on a “case-by-case” basis.WTFAQ airs Wednesday at 9pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.

Just to clarify, her baby does have a normal name (which hasn't been revealed because people deserve privacy!), this is just the name on the paperwork. And the journalist and her husband are working with the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages to change the baby's birth certificate.
Here's the segment on WTFAQ about it!
youtube
So incredibly funny backstory to this one. A show on the national broadcaster wanted to demonstrate how you can name your baby anything, but that outlandish names will get rejected by the government and then you will be asked to submit a new name.
Only problem is, when they had one of their journos submit a name that should by all means have been rejected for her newborn kid... the government just approved it.
Which means her newborn baby child is now legally known as 'Methamphetamine Rules'.

Hi! When you're not too busy or anything, could you explain how to add an image to a custom page/manually? I'm having some trouble and I'm using the same about page as you, thank you so much!
Hiiii anon!~
hm, I’m a bit confused concerning your question because my current about page is just an added page to my current theme! I don’t have a custom about page rn!
please send me link (ex. /about or /wtfaq etc. you dont have to send the full link u know?)
But if you want to add an image to a custom page the theme maker should have notes within the code itself where you paste the URL of the image you would like to use! below is what the typical code looks like for inserting images in a custom page:
let me know if you need more help!
