In France, there is some freedom but the civil officers who register name can refuse if they deem it offensive or harmful for the kid. It is also insanely hard to change your name (years long, costly procedures and the name change is only granted in extreme cases, where you can prove it damages you severely). There was a famous case of couple, family name Renault, who wanted to call their baby girl Mégane (a common girl name). Problem is... Mégane is car model by french manufacturer Renault.
