So my cousin gave birth the other day, to a girl. She named her Elle Dee La Dobrian. Does anyone else think that sounds just, well, dumb?

oy....yeah.

Elle is a cute name but then I was like Elle Dee, ok so it sounds like the initials "LD" and I kept reading and was like oh! yeah that's bad :X

Elle Dee La?
Ouch. Elle is whatever. Elle Dee is bad but doable. But...LA?! Okay, that's just...dumb. No offense meant. I'm sure she's an adorable baby :)
My friend's daughter wanted to name her daughter La Chea. Pronounced La Shay. *shrug* She ended up naming her Alexandria.

It's also the name of an interscholastic debate event.

Yeah, that's pretty bad.
I like Elle. But with the two middle names it's a bit much.

Are they going to use both middle names with her first name? Or will she mostly be known as Elle Dobrian. WHy did she pick those names, any reason?

And yea, I do think its dumb.

That is a lot of single syllables in a row. Reminds me a bit of the Beatles song, "Ob-la-dee, Ob-la-da".

Nah, I don't like it. At least she didn't name her kid Rece Scott like my cousin named hers. =/

Makes me think La-dee-dah or doe-ray-mi... it's just kind of weird. Maybe she had her reasons though. Is the last name LaDobrian? Or is La a second mn? Elle is a nice name though, and that's really all that matters.
