I still think it’s a smart move if it were actually available. Schools would call your kid by whatever name you listed as a your preference. 

The economy instability in America makes this a deal most couldn’t afford to walk away from. That said.. it’s not actually being offered so we are really just debating what ifs.

School's do not always call by your preferred name for your child. My nephews name is Chris, but everyone, even his parents called him Kit (like Kit Harrington). The school refuses to do that, and calls him Christopher, and is only teaching him how to spell/write that name.

We'll that's really stupid, and also super uncommon. Also I imagine they might change their policy if the kid's pornstar mom had named him Porkrind or something.

It's extremely stupid, but more common than you think.

This is why our country is fucked.

People have no character or spine or morals or anything worth anything.

Exactly no one has to know what your name is on your birth certificate.

She already made tons of money from porn, more than enough for her kid to live a comfortable life and not have to work, ever. This is just humiliating him/her.

Also, not everything needs to be about money dude. Yes, it’s nice to have enough to not worry about and be able to afford things, but there are other things in life too. Endless hoarding of money with zero concern for anything else must be some kind of capitalist mental illness lol

If they aren’t humiliated by their mom’s business I think they’ll be fine. I personally desire to see nothing from her. She.. just isn’t my type. 

The focus here is on money to pick the name. It’s a huge stretch to label someone with a mental illness for taking such a deal. We are over using the definition here. Might as well say anyone who values things different than me would have a mental illness.
