Resumen

ORTEGA LAUREL, Carlos. The name. As a human right related to the highest interest of infants. Derecho glob. Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.18, pp.103-125.  Epub 06-Sep-2021. ISSN 2448-5136.  https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v6i18.352.

The name has a double legal nature, it is clearly recognized as an attribute of the personality (civil perspective) and as a human right. However, even when it is a people right, the choice of it is always a third parties’ power (usually the parents). Unfortunately, this right to parents or guardians enjoys excessive freedom, which on many occasions has been harmful to the infant’s dignity. That is why some frameworks are suggested that delimit the name choice freedom for the sake of the best interests of the child. Allusion is made to the most recent reform to the Civil Code of Mexico City.

Palabras llave : human right; name; dignity; freedom; superior younger interest.
