In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the controversy surrounding the name Lucifer, as chosen by Dan and Mandy Sheldon for their newborn son. The couple from Chesterfield, Derbyshire, faced unexpected resistance when a registrar at Derbyshire County Council attempted to dissuade them from registering the name, citing its association with the Devil and potential future challenges for their child.
