46 baby names you can't use in Australia

Some baby names just aren’t a good idea. So much so, the Victorian government recently released a list of monikers that can’t be used.

Apparently, there has been an increase in parents attempting to register unusual names.

The following names have been prohibited under the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Act 1996, with all of them being unsuccessfully registered in Victoria in the last year alone. 

Although the list comes from Victoria, many of the names have been banned in other Australian states.
