@maddieissobeastlike Not even! It was Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii... The parents must've been insane.

[itsonlymecollette]

Hi I'm Tomas from portugal!

[supernatashaman]

Liked the yelling part while saying that word in german

[swarn93]

I think they should have one of these lists in the US. some people have crazy names...

[MyLittleD0nkey]

that song is following me today. O_o

[yellowbobblehat]

I'm called Metallica!!

[myepiclife59]

you dont get a list in denmark... though that sounds fun if it was like that! by the way i have a danish friend named pluto :)

[erinjacobs91]

Alex we have the same ringtone!!!

[ThatwuzEze]

They allowed Google but not METALLICA?!?!? How dare they!

[chaziscool1092]

What if someone calls two of their kids two seemingly normal names that together sound worse? :P

My dad's friend's friend called his two daughters 'Atlanta' and 'Ocean' purely so when he called them both at once it'd make him lol XD

[92raminta]

It's nice the way you say "Andrea" :)) (I'm italian) XD

[MrKirner]

No Tom???

[MOEPBIBER]

i am german and i laughed my ass off when you tried to say "standesamt"^^

[sunfullshadow]

STANDASAMT! xDD

[mia22ayleen]

haha. I like the way you pronounced "Standesamt" ;) - hugs, a German girl :)

[behindthediamondmask]

lol i live in canada and one time a guy just started talking to me and my friends and he had the same accent as alex. his name was craig. swoon!

[sa7yzu]

"What are you in for?"

"Naming my kid Bridge..."

[MrFrostingbutt]

My last name is Kraiss (Like Christ without the T sound) and I swear I will never name my kid Jesus (Hey-zeus)

[TheCarlliinha]

The Tomas and Tom thing is only because the portuguese government does not want babies born in Portugal with a non-portuguese name, they're attempting to preserve that I guess.. Not sure if it'll work though :/

[KankyUke]

one of my friends knew a girl whos name in English would mean Christmas Present xD

[9726humlan]

In sweden you can be named oktober, but not november... O.o

[quidwitch]

New Zealand's most infamous child's name was 'Tallulah does the Hula in Hawaii'. Apparently the parents were forced to change the child's name...

[mandapop]

what is WRONG with people?? who the hell wants to name their kid Anus?!

[xBaaSaysTheLambx]

Your dancing is win.

[DSGSmiley615]

as soon as he started his ringtone I started dancing :)

[giirlsx]

All of alex's friends now know why he doesn't answer his phone...

[MissNerdz4life]

I'm naming my child google and changing my second name to Chrome... Just cause I can....

[GottaLoveKristen05]

You gonna answer that?:L haha<3

[notsotinydancer13]

YOUR RINGTONE MAKES ME LOVE YOU EVEN MORE!!GA!:D

[TOMDGRAFFITI]

OMG HIS LAPTOP IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

[MidnightOwlProductio]

I'm from Norway!!! but my name isn't Bridge.....

[puffleseatbunnies]

this has been totally copied by yahoo :P

[zzirT0M]

shiiit, best not make a trip to portugal soon...

[habahameh10]

.... My name is Andrea. And I'm a girl.

[ExesandErin]

@habahameh10 Are you Italian, though? It's only a boys name in Italy.

[Fzeroxd001]

in china some parents tried to give their baby boy the name of @, no kidding @!

[WellBeHonest]

At least you'll never come across a German child named Squirrel.

[46419]

the "Standesamt" isnt only about banning names

[Aziexxx]

"Did you click this video link all by yourself?" ... Seriously? :/

[HeyThereAyla]

I live in denmark....Thay banned Ariel, because it's also a company that makes soap....I'm quite thankful 'cause it would've been my name if thay hadn't:) But nobody their kid anus! It means the same in danish as in english!;D

[HeyLookFreeLemons]

It was this video that made me aware of Tom Milsom and I thank you greatly, for that, Alex.

[Waarisubs]

My name is My (Not pronunced like the english ''My'') it's kind of common here in sweden but still i think it's weird.

[RCH17560]

A guy in my class has a brother.

His brother's name is Bror.

Bror is swedish for brother .__.

(yes, I live in sweden)

[falasteeeen]

I found that quite funny for unknown reasons

[falasteeeen]

you say thomas funny :P

[SUXXchuck]

@falasteeeen It's probably the Portugese pronunciation...

[CallumHolt100]

hey, why didn't you answer my phone call earlier?! i was dancing to my ringtone.....

[Molkette11]

"So if Tom Milsom was born in Portugal he would have to be called Thomas or he would NOT EXIST, which would be rubbish." Indeed.

[sarahlikesfun1101]

I know a girl named Galactica......no joke.

[Katypillar713]

I wanted to call my first born son Sonic, but my husband veto'd it :( so we called our cat Sonic instead (full name Sonic Waffle) Syvanas still on the table for girls names though :D

[CamilleonProductions]

My sister wanted to name her child "Luna" until we shot her down with a number of obvious schoolyard names that can come from that....

[akariglimmer]

For some reason, I now want to call my kid Pluto... It is actually kinda awesome...

[bmendler707700Fan]

LOL at Natasha Bedingfield at the end!

[medexamtoolsdotcom]

No wonder there are so few black people in Europe. The sisters, they like to give their little ones horrible, horrible names. I actually knew a Latrine, and in public schools in the deep south, there were two sisters, whom I did not know, named Lemonjello and Orangejello - which we were supposed to pronounce as all one word each with no gap before the "jello" and "Leh-monjel-lo" (with the mon like monster not lemon) even though everyone knew her friggin' name was Lemon Jello for crying out loud.

[lollymarbles]

How did you get your mac like that??!!

[nailnldk]

If you name your child 'Tom' in denmark he will be Called Empty for that is what tom means in denmark

[thetealarmadillo]

ALEX DAY HAS A MOTHER TRUCKING POKEMON THEMED MAC :O

[twinkle16ify]

This was uploaded on my birthday!!! Lol

[TheAllBlackMan]

Okay, my cousin has the last name Brij (pronounced bridge) and proceeded to name her daughter Brooklyn.

[MeggieMiami]

@TheAllBlackMan dafuq o_O

[rockrgrl637]

You remind me of a British Eric from That 70's show for some reason...

[OogieBoogieFan]

I'm from Denmark and I didn't know anything about that list.

I HATE MY LIFE. I want to call my baby Pluto :(

[LeColourVideo]

I laughed. Mostly at the STANDESAMT.

Oh boy. German does not always sound that angry. But I love how people think that, it's funny. :)

[AngelandRoll]

I LOVE THAT TERRIBLE SONG

[leingthelennart]

Just a big *lol* on you Standesamt. I'm german i i still don't get why foreigners think we're always angry :D

[PartingXwords]

Sooooo cute how you pronounced Standesamt. :DDDDD <3

[Annthejann]

Monkey, Pluto and what?

[potterhead143]

@Annthejann anus.... somebody wanted anus to be an approved name...

[Hazelcake]

well i know what my new ringtone is going to be...

[ReinaTheBulbasaur321]

THIS VIDEO WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY TIC TACS, *INSERT SLOGAN HERE*

[HarryPotterAddict11]

I LOVE the design on your mac :3

[JanawayJ]

get a new t shirt that one is gay.

[ImCanadaNotAmerica]

@JanawayJ Honey, you have to know how to use a word correctly to insult someone with it. I hope you are aware that gay means happy and Alex seems like a very happy person most of the time therefore it isn't an insult.

[mateeah]

i hope you know, you have a twin in washington, US that looks EXACTLY like you

[MagicRevealer09]

What was the song at the end? It's amazing! :D

[SuperCharliebennett]

@MagicRevealer09 Pocket full of sunshine, but it is insanely addictive :P

[MagicRevealer09]

@SuperCharliebennett Yup. Found it earlier, been listening to it none stop. GOD DAMNIT, ALEX! :']

[14Ninaa]

im from portugal! portugal rules!! and actually tom is considered an english name... so... yah, we cant have it, just a portuguese version of that... like natasha and natacha... (natacha is allowed)

[sonicxanime]

I'm from Norway



[xxMohixx]

Nice ringtone

[ChessWild]

[y0dx]

The part about Denmark is so not true. I'm sorry Alex :-D

[throwingfunyuns]

Freshman year a substitute teacher read my name as anus... My name is not anus. And who in their right mind would name a child anus? Just saying.

[iStalkCoolPeople]

 Im from denmark and no one I know got a list when they got a child... soo....

[StillBreathingMDP]

Harper Seven?

Apple?

Spaceboy?

Blue Ivy?

Romeo?

SERIOUSLY?!

[EnAndenDag]

Hey :) I'm from Denmark, and as far as I know there's no "you-may-choose-from-this"-lis­t only some names that aren't allowed 'cause they're too ridiculus - like anus.. :)

[dirtygreb]

i suddenly want some tic-tacs...... fancy sending me a packet? =P hehe xx

[1010mfsn]

I LOVE THAT SONG !!!!! also did the same dance moves :P

[IcpCandy]

[HolyApplesauce]

your ringtone made my day. it's my jam :D

[emmalovesss]

And there was me, wondering why everyone from denmark was called lisa or stanovich! ha!

[EnAndenDag]

I'm from DK and as far as I know there're very few people today that are named Lisa. And no one's called stanovich (i.e. people with a danish origin)

[xxaehyoxx]

@emmalovesss !!! LOL!!! i live in denmark i don't know anyone called Lisa or Stanovich O.O

[JFluffyful]

By child I mean daughter.

[PigsFlyingAeroplanes]

Dammit I was so hoping to call my baby Dalmatian

[love5animals]

[LockableLouise]

You might not be able to call your kid Anus, but you can call them Janus, which is pretty damn close.

[chilemuybueno]

[91jsgoo]

[gordyb118]

@91jsgoo I know,you really are.

[tysej4]

Where have you read that about denmark?

[1xYenax1]

Well, actually the "Standesamt" doesn't only decide if baby names are suitable, it's also the place you get married at, get a birth certificate, etc.

Google says it's "register office" in english ^^

[emiingham]

Loving the Ash on your laptop :D

[TheTCash11]

This is exactly a year after the upload lol. (:

[kasidzi1]

I LOVE UR COMPUTERRRRR!!!

[Coseepo]

You should have ended the video by answering the phone like "Hi mum.... Oh she hung up."

[MagicRevealer09]

The awkward moment went you said Google was brilliant, yet this video was featured on Yahoo Answers.... xD

[Bobby08Drake]

STANDESAMT :DDD

[Bobby08Drake]

The singer of My Chemical Romance called his daughter Bandit :D

[heather0f]

any1 no if Gaylord Focker is on any of the aproved lists im quite likeing the name lol

[icedstrawberrynimbus]

in 2007 a couple in china tried to call their child '@'

[misszotee]

america clearly has non of these laws

[jegstenerforgroft]

Denmark.<3<3<3<3

[thisisalexblabla]

It's funny how you pronounce "Standesamt". It's not just for names, but also for marriages, deaths and stuff like that.

[1xYenax1]

@thisisalexblabla Ok, I just wrote the same thing, I should heve read the other comments first! I agree on the pronounciation though :D

[andydandy090]

im an Italian girl and my name is Andrea!!! my parents were then told that my name had to be changed to Maria-Andrea (which is, believe it or not an even stronger male name) so they did! but they switched it around so its Andrea-Maria, which was illegal!! my parents r badass rebels!!

[ComeTogetherAndJamm]

Why does Alex always have the coolest laptop cases? I want them.....

[TheAmazingSuki]

I was so dancing with him in the end.

[gimkilo57]

appearently you cant name your baby Blue Ivy either...

[JennyBenny318]

@gimkilo57 Then I'm naming my baby Ivy Blue.

[xKatiee101x]

I did a weird sort of spaz dance when I heard your ringtone..... Made my day!

[Muffin9771]

AWESOME I live in Sweden and when I get a baby I'm gonna name it Google!!!!

[FlyBirdLittle]

Awkward! I live in Denmark and I have NEVER heard anything about that law..

[Coolerthanu681]

i love natasha beddingfield!

[amydangrace]

LOL charlie and alex have the same :O face @ the beginning!!

[Gamescare]

Rofl at the end XD

[RosePetalsFalling]

Dance at the end made my day. :)

[LoveSucksDrug]

I lol'd so hard when you said they banned the name Ikea. That is what my mother calls my friend Kai. 

[LoveSucksDrug]

There is a girl at my school,and her first name is, Shi'thead. It's pronounced she-haud.

[oneyearwithoutbeer]

In Austria, if you take too long during the baby-naming process, and haven't decided after 4 weeks, the President chooses a name for you

[LoveSucksDrug]

@oneyearwithoutbeer Um,I don't know about you,but that'd be cool as crack to have the president name by baby.

[tehoneandonlymozza20]

irish colours at the end....

[shikamaruisfit]

It's really weird to think that statistically speaking there must have been a girl out there somewhere who watched this and was pregnant when you said she wasn't :L

[clubpenguin1707]

Lol the song

[m0rbusPolytox]

german "standesamt" is more than just the department of name approval!

it is responsible for:

-marriages

-name changes

-birth certificates

-certificates of death

etc.

REGISTER OFFICE is the name of the department in the UK, i think.
