I googled it too...and it asked "Do you mean Heinz Hitler?" so I clicked on it and Heinz Hitler was Adolf Hitler's favorite nephew.

I don't know if that's it or not...maybe they can't spell???

I read that news story earlier today and was saddened. Of course, under the story people had posted how sad it was that someone would choose those names, because they just didn't know how hard they were going to make it on the kids, etc. but the truth is... these people knew EXACTLY what they were doing when they named these kids. They took their beautiful babies and gave them names of hatred. And the worst, absolutely WORST part is that these children are going to be raised by these morons to hate everyone... jews, blacks, hispanics, etc. and they will propogate the hatred in the future. I pray... and pray hard... that somehow these children will have their own minds and figure out that their parents are sick, sick, sick people and will not try to emulate their beliefs, but I am not holding out hope for that. You are not born a bigot, you are taught to be one. And these are the people that are teaching it.

And trust me, a birthday cake with no name is the least of this kid's problems.

And for the record... no, I would not do the cake. I'd have sent them on their way too if they insisted on that. And I am the type of person that will do almost any cake that someone orders. Naughty cakes don't bother me. This, however, would not be in my scope of work.

I would do the cake. It's for a child, and it's not his fault his parents are morons.

I wouldn't begrudge them making a statement, but it's unfair that they are using their children to make that statement for them.

Amen! Attention-hunting, no-accounts.

Heck, I get peeved whenever I see someone with a funny spelling of a common name. I will tell brides, "Don't you just wanna smack yo' mama for giving you a name that you have to spell out for everyone for the rest of your life?" Had a bride last week who laughed and said, "Yeah! I never did get a license plate for my bicycle because of it!"

I have heard of some horrible names before but wtf? Sorry but that poor kid! I thought my friend in high school had it hard when his parents named him Richard "Dick" Hair and his sister was Leslie "Les" Hair. No joke!

I agree with Rachael1013 "you have a right to refuse service" and I would.

Thats funny my first principle was Mr. Dick and his parents named him Harry.....nice parents! I would not put the whole name on the cake, but of course the inocent children will suffer, how sad.

Maybe they meant Heinrich Himmler who was one of Hitler's top men- head of the SS and oversaw some of the concentration camps.
Whatever they meant, their intent is despicable and really really sad.

We can never hope for peace and promote racism at the same time. It's an at-will situation. The bakery wasn't willing to make the cake. The customer can find another racist to do it for them.

Poor kids, they don't stand a chance.

... IMO, the parents are just looking for someone to sue. He can't work because he has asthma, and she can't work because she has a bad back......

I stopped reading the posts at the above statement.
*I* have a bad back; *I* also have asthma but I still can work!
Like many others have said, why did the parents *insist* on using the childs whole, full name?? Why not just do the usual 1st mame? Then no one would have know any different.
I smell an attempt for $$$$ here.

edited to add: .......refuse to do cakes that are considered pornographic (naughty), satanic, or discriminatory (against anyone). I don't even do Halloween cakes, but this is my personal set of beliefs......

Totally agree here. I would not have done it **IF they insisted on the full, whole name**......would have put just HB Adolf otherwise would have done it w/o any writing on it then the customer could take it or leave it as was offered to them by this shop.

my famous saying "stupid people shouldnt breed". but besides that - i dont think anyone should be forced to make/write or promote anything that they feel is offensive.
but imagine if they had made the cake, these low life racist jack a@@ would have no reason to try and sue.
that would have shocked them right out of their racist pants!
they were only doing if for shock value. i heard that neither of them work. make your own son's cake!! and get off the 15min. of fame bus.
thats all this is. they got a bit of fame, for naming their kids these names.
the real sad part of this story is these beautiful kids, will grow up with so much prejudice towards them because of what their parents did.
as if kids dont have enough problems just growing up.

The parents don't think these names will cause these poor children worse problems than this?? This is only the beginning. I think that businesses have the right to refuse making something that they are uncomfortable with. I would never print a racist slur and this is the same thing. These parents are proclaiming their hatred in the most vocal and hurtful way they can. Unfortunately they are hurting their precious children the most. This is worse than slapping them in the face every morning. What misery they will endure.

My point exactly! Their fingers aren't broken, they can sure as heck dial a phone and be a telemarketer, and plenty of other things that aren't like digging ditches and carrying heavy trays of food. I used to handle a convention of deaf people every year, and nearly all of them were professionals in the work force.

I pray these children are exposed to more so that they can learn the truth about the hatred of their parents. Let's just pray they go to a public school and aren't home schooled where their parents would have complete control over their education.

It's just so sad. These poor, sweet children will grow up having so much thrown at them - and all for a name. I also pray they may get emancipated at a young age and get their names changed.

I still think people should have to have a license to have kids....

Y'know I don't remember the name, but Italy recently refused to allow new parents to name a child a certain name. We should have done that here in this case to protect this little boy




The Italian courts refused to allow the child to be named Friday. Solely on the basis that it would make things hard for the child.
http://www.parentdish.com/2007/12/18/italian-court-changes-babys-name/

There was another one recently, I thought it was Italy too. The parents wanted to name the child a name that was used by a famous villian in a play or opera, and the courts would not allow it. And that wasn't even a real person!

Then there was a Dutch family in Oregon who couldn't even have their own last name on their license plate, because it could be offensive to Asians. The last name was Udink. Now, that's a stretch to leap to that being a racial slur, IMO.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20966693/?GT1=10357

A couple in China has to fight to name their baby @. Remember, symbols make up the Chinese alphabet! And the Chinese pronunciation of @ would mean 'love him'.http://www.usatoday.com/news/offbeat/2007-08-16-china-baby-name_N.htm?csp=34

My point is...states and courts everywhere are rejecting names that they think are ridiculous, offensive, or harmful to the child but somehow here, in America, (supposed) land of equality and racial integration, no one puts their foot down when parents want to name their children these heinous names??!!!

icon_sad.gif I came across this sad story earlier on CakeWrecks. From what I've read, they did mean Heinrich Himmler. Smert.

You know who they ended up going to (the same place that made his other two birthday cakes) - WALMART!

What is even more sad is that they will probably have more children.

I absolutely would not do this cake. I think some business just isn't worth it.


p.s. All4Cake, you are cracking me up. icon_lol.gif

Germany is like many other European countries in that they actually have a list of names that you have to use when you name your child. A good idea after what I saw on A&E's "The First 48" a minute ago. A detective's name is "C'Mon Wingo". I'm not lying! I thought, "Some crazy parent named the fruit of their loins "Come On"?!?!", then my DH said, "Maybe it's pronounced 'Simone'"...he may be right, but what did you think when you read it?

I feel so blessed to have been a military brat and to be married to a soldier because you are forced to coexist with people from so many different cultures, races, religions and walks of life. At any given moment dinner at my house can be from Thailand or Greece because I've always immersed myself in the culture that I live in. Sadly, I've seen many people like this couple who go to a foreign country and refuse to acclimate themselves under the false mentality that being an American is all there is to life. I love our country, don't mistake me, but there's a beauty in being able to get to know something intimate about another person's country and history.

What's really funny, and ironic even, is that if those parents were to go to Germany, they would be hard pressed to find many Adolf's there. I lived there for 6 years and traveled the entire country and Austria and only met 1 and he was in his late 70's. People in Germany don't like to speak much about WWII or about the holocaust because it's something that they're ashamed of (as told to me by almost every German I spoke with). The German people are a very kind and welcoming group, so it makes me laugh when people think that they (Germans) are sympathetic to Neo-Nazis, I've actually heard Germans calling them "ignorant slimeballs" LOL!

I have a Puerto Rican mother, a black father, a homosexual brother, a South Korean step-father, and a Jewish brother-in-law...my family is the epitomy of tolerance. I just pray I demonstrate that at all times in front of my children because no matter how much I say I'm not a racist, bigot, or whatever, one wrong off-color (no pun intended) joke or stereotypical statement can negate all of that in their eyes.

Anyway, could you imagine what this world would be like if we were all the same? Sure we'd have loads of awesome cakes, but how boring would it be?

Well, Deborah Campbell (little Adolf's mother) summed up my feelings.

"That's sad."

It's sad that Heath & Deborah Campbell (I really hesitate to call them "adults" or "parents") can't see their own hipocrisy. I'm sure part of their spew against blacks/Jews/hispanics/gays/whatever involves the "they're no good, lazy, cheating scum" train of "thought". Yet, Heath "can't" work due to asthma, and Deborah "can't" work due to a bad back. Funny, I have asthma AND a bad back - I just got home from work. They just cashed another welfare check.

It's sad that they have doomed their children to basically unproductive lives. It's sad that they are the "examples" and "role models" their children will emulate. It's sad that we will probably hear about these children, in about 12 years or so, when they go on a shooting rampage at school.

Yes, that's sad.

Don't people know that nazism is illegal in Germany?

Anyway, I can't believe you are allowed to give your kids those names in the States. Here it's not legal to name your child anything that could cause problems, so no Adolf Hitlers in Denmark, and thank the gods for that. I would refuse to do this cake.

In fact, I would refuse to make any kind of cake for racists or nazists. But then again, they probably wouldn't ask me to begin with.

I am in awe of such stupidity in these parents. There isn't enough money in this world to have me make a cake for them.

Bad back, huh? I bet when they were "creating" these children her bad back and his asthma weren't affected. Ten bucks they are living off of all of us.

I saw this too, and the best I can figure is more of the parent's ignorance and inability to spell. I believe they may have meant 'Himmler' who was was also a Nazi monster during WWII.

As for the Honszlynn, Honsz (probably a play on the name Hans, and lynn.) Another one of the parents either play on words or stupidity, your choice.

My mother worked at a school and one little girl was named, "Lesbia." Don't ask because I have no idea. They wound up calling her "Liz." Parents need to really think before naming their children and the ramifications of that name. I have also heard of worse, but they aren't fit to put into print in this forum.
