What a lot of apostrophes!
Aquanette made me laugh really hard.

How would you pronounce Merere? (Not that I know how to pronounce many of the other ones but that one caught my interest)

Aaelani is pronounced like AYE-lahni I think it sounds pretty but that is some fluffy spelling.

Was Daijaa's surname Voo?

And Vicellous?

A lot of people are playing apostrophe Scrabble here!

Yburje' (girl-- parents: Tasha & Dean)

This one makes me go o.O because it looks like it should be some kind of ethnic/cultural name, but...Tasha and Dean sound pretty normal, so....I'm confused.

Merere kind of looks like its from the Pacific Islands (could be wrong, lots of other languages use the same vowel sounds eg Asian languages)

I would pronounce it mare-reh-reh (with a rolled 'r' and the 'reh' pronounced kind of like with an short 'h' sound at the end)

However I could be totally wrong! :D
