Not that we understand why you’d want to name your child after a surgical procedure, but if you were thinking of doing so, you won’t be able to in Sonora, Mexico.

Who doesn’t love Nutella?! Well, I don’t, but there’s a lot of people who do, including a French couple who wanted to name their daughter after the delicious hazelnut spread because they hoped she would emulate its sweetness and popularity.

But a French judge denied it, saying that the name could only lead to “mockery and disobliging remarks.” The child’s name was shortened to Ella.
