The Campbell family's odd habit of choosing controversial names came to light when mother Deborah, 25, phoned ShopRite to place a birthday cake order and was told the bakery wouldn't do it. They didn't want to spell out her son's full name in icing.
Her son is 3 years old - little Adolf Hitler Campbell.
His little sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, are just shy of 2 and 1 respectively.
The family lives in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, where it can be assumed the kids aren't yet enrolled in preschool because they'd surely have a tough time with those names.
Apparently this isn't the first time the Campbells have asked ShopRite for a questionable cake; father Heath, 35, once requested one with a swastika.
Here's the full story on the cake denial, including details on another store that did fulfill the order (although they now acknowledge that they'll be reviewing their cake decorating policy because of the incident.)
And we thought the Palin kids' names were wacky.
Postscript: I'm not the only one concerned about the cruelty of giving these kids those names. At the Faith and Reason blog at USA Today is a short article about 'living up to our names.'
