A mother has been banned from naming her baby Cyanide after the poison. The woman, from Powys, Wales, also chose the name Preacher for the girl’s twin brother, saying she had a human right to name her own children. She said Cyanide was a “lovely, pretty name” with positive connotations as it was taken by Hitler before he shot himself.

@Claudia, but Chastity turned out OK.
Oh…wait…
Far more damage to society by boys named mohammud than by a girl named Cynanide
If Jane Fonda married Wally Cox; would her name be Jane Fonda-Cox
