“We're sorry, we already have an Ella in ****. From experience, it is very difficult in everyday life with two children with the same name.”
A screenshot is currently being circulated on Facebook, with both humorous and critical comments. It is a screenshot of an email that shows a daycare center's rejection of a daycare place for their daughter Ella. The reason sounds bizarre: two Ella's (<- as in the original) would not understand who is meant if you spoke to them.
This screenshot is not an invention of any Likebait pages or Funpic pages, but originally comes from a tweet on Twitter published by ZDF journalist Andrea Maurer. This tweet is from June 14, 2018 ( source ):
From the series “unfortunately we don’t have a daycare place for you” this statement today. #daycarecrisis #oneellacomesrarelyalone pic.twitter.com/lrvGF9EyRI

According to the journalist, this response letter from the daycare center is not a fake. When asked whether this response was serious, she replied, “Unfortunately, yes.” In the past few weeks, Andrea Maurer has published several pieces of content on Twitter in which she uses the hashtag daycare crisis to reflect her own experiences looking for a daycare place.
Here's another voice in the
#daycarecrisis : A daycare center manager has 20 places, but no staff. Politicians have “forgotten to go into planning.” She fears that the quality will now suffer in order to secure daycare places: “Ball pits from Ikea always work, but education is different.”
The comments
Serious content aside, the comments under the tweet are worth a look.
From now on, children's names must consist of at least 12 letters, a number and a special character.

Do we still have to encrypt it in SHA256 or similar according to #GDPR ?

From now on I will no longer laugh at anyone who names their child Rumpelstiltskin...

I was always called 'I call your mother'.

Maybe you could threaten the daycare center with a lawsuit because of the use of plural apostrophes and force admission. But seriously: absolutely unbelievable.
