Do you think that people's names should be able to be trademarked, like Jay Z and Beyonce's baby's name, for example, so that nobody could name their baby the same name?

Jay Z and Beyonce have applied for a trademark of their baby daughter’s name, Blue Ivy. This would be to prevent other people from naming their babies Blue Ivy. To my knowledge, this has never been done before.

Do you think that names of people should be trademarked, so that nobody else could name their child the same name?
