The document discusses giving children unique names and the potential issues it can cause. It notes that while unique names may be cute for babies, children have to live with their name forever. There is a debate around regulating parents' name choices, with pros being names are easily readable but concerns about limiting parents' rights and lack of clear standards. An example is given of a child named "Ichiro" who has an older brother, violating the tradition of Ichiro being the first son. The document concludes that names can interrupt a child's life and there should be rights for both parents and children, suggesting giving children opportunities to select their own names later in life.
