Well, now, let's see . . . if the criterion is
that new entries should not mean the same as names already registered in another
language, I think we'd be locking the barn after the horse has flown (I've
always wondered if that was Pegasus). Not just one horse, but a vast
herd. For a very small example, I have culled the following
names, all from our online AIS registry:
Kanarievogel and Canary Bird
Rotvogel and Redbird
Schneevogel and Snowbird
Weisse Taube and White Dove
Weisschen and Little White
That's just some of the Germans. Then we
have the French:
Dame Blanche and White Lady
Reine Blanche and White Queen
Chevalier Noir and Black Knight
Blancheneige and Snow White (not to forget the
Germans' Schneeweisschen)
Mont Blanc, Mount Blanc and Monte Bianco (here
come the Italians)
Chapeau Blanc, White Hat and Sombrero Blanco (and
the Spaniards)
The list could go on, and I'm afraid I'd be here
until the cows come home trying to identify all the translingual
duplications.
Does it matter? Well, personally, I'd hate
not to be able to name an iris Morrie the Horseman because Maurice Chevalier was
already taken.

. . . But is it also what you think about the matter, or would you, like me, like
to have a debate about the new entries coming from abroad.
We only have the Russians for the moment, but guess what, when Chinese
breaders or Japanese start to question the rules because they are not clear
enough?
Do MEANING has anything to do with a registration or not?
THIS is the issue.
And i'd like more people to join the debate!
