Recently, a couple in New Zealand were forbidden from naming their baby son 4Real. Even 1. New Zealand has quite free rules about 2. children, names beginning with a 3.  are not allowed. They decided to call him Superman 4. .

 8. parents choose names which come from 9. culture. For example, there have been six boys named Gandalf   10. the character in the Lord of the Rings(指环王) novels and films. 11. , names related to sport are fairly common – 12. 1984, 36 children have been called Arsenal(阿森纳) after the football team. Other parents like to 13. names, or combine names to make their own 14. names, a method demonstrated (证实的) by Jordan, the British model, 15. recently invented the name Tiaamii for her daughter by 16. names     Thea and Amy (the two grandmothers).

Some names which were previously 17. as old-fashioned have 18. popular again, but the most popular names are not the strange 19. . The top names are fairly   20. , for example, Jack, Charlie and Thomas for boys and Grace, Ruby and Jessica for girls.
