There are indications that the list could grow because officials are still checking the state’s 132 newborn registries, Sonora state Civil Registry director Cristina Ramirez said Tuesday.
The law banning a list of 61 odd or offensive names took effect Monday.
The move is aimed at protecting children from being bullied, the official explained.
Ramirez revealed that in the town of Navojoa a boy was recently named “Juan Calzon,” or “Juan Panties,” and a girl was named “Lady Di.”
Other odd names include a girl called “Marciana,” or “Martian,” and a boy called “Circuncision,” or “Circumcision.”
