Tacky?

An internet acquaintance of mine met her now SO through the internet. They're expecting their first child together for this winter and it's a girl. They're in Denmark and she's part english. They haven't settled for a first name, but they're toying with the idea of using Java as a middle name, as a tribute to technology, which they credit for bringing the 2 of them together.

I think Java sounds nice, and it looks close to Jada, but it makes me think of the tea. Exotic enough, that's for sure. But naming your kid after computer applications? I'm not sure what I think of it.

WDYT? Do you find their choice to be tacky?

P.S. I think they're considering Anabel and Sofie for first names.

It could be worse: Anabel Match.com LASTNAME or Sofie YahooPersonals LASTNAME.

I personally wouldn't ever use Java as a middle name, and I would most likely think of coffee first, and not the computer application, but to each her own.

LOL, one of my friends is a coffeemaniac, too. I'm actually surprised she didn't use Java as a middle name for one of her sons;)
