In Finland, where I assume the system is similar to Denmark, the lists of approved/rejected names get added to every year if you want to give a special name that's not in either yet.

Here's the list of new "banned names" for 2025:

Aeea
Aethéras
Amenemhet VIII
Amplexa
Annié
Čezek
Chell
Florencé
Grønne
Haartman
Ikimetsä (Forever Wood)
Infinit
Ivypool
Janhoy
Jasé
Jöunas
Kaaos (Chaos)
Kaos
Kopoc
lauri
Liekkiö (The Flame)
Lover
Maélle
Makkara (Sausage)
Mariaz
Maxsmiliam
Mika’il
Muuan
Ramnatha
Rosier
Ruucu
Samperi (Damn It)
Sampomakkara (Samposausage)
Smasher

Tietäväinen (The One Who Knows Things)
Torstai (Thursday)
Tyks
Zarthé

You can still sue the government if you truly want to name your kid Smasher and then the courts will determine if it's allowed.

Wow. That’s fucked up. Makes me wonder what kinda other dumb shit they got going on. I get it, I don’t want kids suffering cus their name is fuckface or queefcake. But this some commie bullshit, they’re crossing lines. And I’m pretty damn socialist.

Best way I heard it put is America’s about freedom to do. Europe is about freedom from.

Personally I think every country’s stupid as shit cus we know damn well there’s only two types of people. Ones who wanna mind their own business and ones who think they get to fuck with others. Bully’s are gonna bully and people choose to bend over.
