500 NAMES YOU REALLY SHOULDN’T CALL YOUR CHILD

A child’s fate often seems to be predetermined by its name. Can a Shakira become chairman of the board, or a Walpurga work in a media agency? Do you still have to take granny Gisela into account when choosing a middle name? And why is it an absolute no-go to call your child Astrid if you’re living in Swabia? William Wahl names and shames the worst names, and in doing so, warns of the pitfalls of currently fashionable and the so- classical names.
