    In fairness, they are pretty nice names. The whole "evil fascist" association is just unfortunate.

    it'd be funny if the romas there started naming their kids Benito or Rachele :D

    Well being from Rome, they might.

    I'd take the money and say he's named after Benito Carbone.

    Can you name the child take the money and change the name? Of even just leave of the child to be raised by wolves? It'll get the parents the bonus, plus save a fortune in the long run.

    Is it even that strange a name? As I've said Benito Carbone (born 1971) and if you're still unsure you can always call him Ben.

    A real problem when you call little Benito for his pasta and three million nazi kids pile into your kitchen.

    The government will probably put a stop to this....they have no sense of humour.

    I'm sure The Mail will be all for it anyway. This is the paper that once had the headline "Hoorah For The Blackshirts", after all.
