You wouldn`t laugh?
I don't quite see the reason for the "laughing". As well as i don't quite see the reason to question the racionality of the parents in relation to the names of the children.

I would laugh as much about someone called "Planet" as i would if he was called "Bubacar imbalo", an African name. Or "Peter", a Greek name.

Edit: Ain't "Akane" a Japanese name? Doesnt it mean "deep red"?


Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.
