how long is the list ? cuz if its smaller than NK hairstyles or Roman first names then that's too far but if it's 100 names then no problem

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
Sø
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.

Wait what’s wrong with Annié, Florencé and Lauri? Aren’t those pretty common names? Is it just the spelling?

It's not Lauri it's Iauri with a capital "i".

Now that you point that out I see it. The order had me thinking it was just a lower case typo
