Mexico's take-no-crap poster & a dozen Mexican girls names I like

[soul-inside.livejournal.com]

I went to register my son in order to get him his birth certificate here in Mexico (he was born here in Mexico, 5 weeks ago). And while I was there, I saw a poster taped to the wall of the waiting room that I found rather interesting and thought maybe you would too...

First, here it is in as wriiten in Spanish, sans accents and "enyes"

Respeten mi identidad de ser mexicano: 
Ponganme un solo nombre que sea facil de pronunciar y de escribir. Con esto me evitaran problemas futuros con documentos personales de uso oficial.
Porque soy, porque me siento.
Orgullosomente Mexiquense
Recuerdan papas Mi nombre es para siempre.

Repect my Mexican identity
Give me a name that is easy to pronounce and spell. That way I will avoid future problems on documents that are for future use  with the Mexican bureaucracy.
Because I am, because I feel.
Proudly Mexican.
Remember parents: My name is forever.

It then lists over 200 name suggestions!

Perhaps something that should be hung in civil registries everywhere?

& as a bonus to my post- here are some Mexican girl names that I like:

Yesenia

Danilu

Jane- I know, it looks "English", but it's pronounced like "hon-ay" sounds like "honey" and is a Mayan word for some species of flower, but I dont know which)

Itzel

Nayeli

Alejandra

Ariadna

Monserrat

Maria Jose (Marijose)

Perla

Esperanza
