ER, I don't think there's anything in the US constitution about it. Actually, I'd stake money on that.
Ditto Fed law. Assuming what you mean is, restrictions or rules about what names can go on birth certificates.
By and large it's the sort of matter handled by local government and any regulations there. Some really awful names have been put down on US birth certificates. Real life Examples:
Loser (discussed in the book Freakanomics)
Candida (this is a venereal disease)
Pual
Skot
Kakob
Fernanda
Wadine (parents=Wade+Maxine)
DeVodka
Velveeta (a brand of cheese spread)
Loinsworth
LaPleasure
Malarea (said like "Malaria")
Unique
Orange'Jello
Lemon'Jello
The French have pretty strict rules about Christian names. Many countries you can only give the child a surname (last name) legally used by one of the parents. But in much if not most of the USA the child can have a completely different surname from the parent, as well as a completely made up and possibly slightly rude first name.
