Tennessee: Woman Allowed to Name Son Messiah
Quote:
A woman will be allowed to name her 8-month-old son Messiah,
a judge ruled Wednesday, overturning an order from another judge
who said the name should be changed because
“Messiah is a title that is held only by Jesus Christ.”

Lu Ann Ballew, a child support magistrate, ordered Jaleesa Martin
to change the name at a paternity hearing last month.

At an appeal hearing on Wednesday, Chancellor Telford E. Forgety Jr. of Cocke County
overturned the decision, finding that the judge had acted unconstitutionally.
