Such choices are not allowed, but there is a right of appeal.
The list came as a response to the growing number of Malaysians who are applying to change their birth names.
Malaysia's National Registration Department made the decision after consulting with various religious bodies in the country.
They represented the country's Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist and Taoist communities.
Traditionally, some groups have given newborns inauspicious names to ward off demons and evil spirits.
Further restrictions
Now names like the Hokkien Chinese Ah Chwar, meaning snake, and Khiow Khoo, meaning hunchback, are being ruled out.
So too are Cantonese monikers Chow Tow, meaning smelly head, and Sor Chai, meaning insane.
Members of Malaysia's Tamil community will be discouraged from using the likes of Karrupusamy (black god), and Malays from trying names like Woti, meaning sexual intercourse.
But the ban extends further.
Parents will not be able to call their babies after animals, insects, fruit, vegetables or colours.
Numbers are also not allowed, so little James Bonds cannot flaunt their 007 status on their ID cards.
Other restrictions stop parents giving children royal or honorary titles as names or calling their little ones after Japanese cars.

While I think some of the recent baby name trends from celebs has been a bit much, it's not as bad as others I have heard. I think it should have been illegal for parents of one student to give him his name. It was pronounced Sh-tead but spelled Shithead.
Yes I did it the wrong way around. Damn not having that first cup of coffee before posting
