No pastries in Denmark

Evidently,  in Denmark your newborn baby's name must be chose from a list of approved names. I'm told it is so that by restricting names to a designated list, no child will be disadvantaged by having a 'bad' name. Sort of like school uniforms with names. I notice there is Allan and Allen, but no Alan. There's a girls list too, and the only girls names beginning with Q are Queenie and Quinnie. Here's the list for boys:
