What's in a name? A mobile game

China Daily | Updated: 2017-09-06 07:37

A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE REGISTRATION CARD of a newborn in Xi'an, Northwest China's Shaanxi province has gone viral online because she has a unique name: Wangzhe Rongyao, or King of Glory, a popular mobile game. Beijing News comments:

On domestic social network platforms, many have questioned whether the man has violated social rules by naming his daughter King of Glory. But local police have said people have the right to choose any name for their children, and there is nothing "illegal" or "immoral" about the newborn's name. And since the name is composed of standard Chinese characters, they have registered it.

By registering the girl's name, the police have protected the legal rights of a citizen. Yet it remains debatable whether the father has made a wise choice because the name "King of Glory" could cause inconveniences to the girl.
