94 | Why You Can't Name Your Baby 'Banana' in Denmark (with Mathias Bach)

Ever wonder why there are so many common names in Denmark? In this episode, Derek, Brooke, and Conrad dive into Denmark’s strict baby naming laws - with plenty of laughs along the way from our friend Mathias Bach. From government-approved name lists to the historical reasons behind them, we break down what you can (and can’t) name your kid if you're raising them in Denmark. Plus, a few awkward personal stories about trying to navigate Danish names as a foreigner.
