Albin Hallin

In the 1991 Swedish citizens Elisabeth Hallin and her husband celebrated the birth of their son, whom they named "Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116 Hallin" as part of an artistic endeavour in free, non-comformist thought. The massive name, which Elisabeth insists is pronounced "Albin", led to the parents being brought up on charges in a district court in Sweden five years later for naming their son such a non-traditional, unfair name. Elisabeth appealed the $680 fine levied on her and her husband, explaining that the name is "a pregnant, expressionistic development that we see as an artistic creation."
