 So I was watching Lilo and Stitch.

What do you think of the name Lilo? Because there's an O at the end it seems masculine to me but I still think it's cute.

The little girl's name who does the voice of Lilo is Daveigh...bleh.

She also played Samara in The Ring. What do you think of that name? I used to love it but I could never name my daughter that because it's too close to my own name:Samantha...

I love Lilo but like many other Hawaiian names even more.

Daveigh is like Ryleigh and Kayleigh and McVeigh all rolled into one... nauseating.

Samara seems okay, but sort of a middle ground between lots of average names.

I'm pretty sure Daveigh is actually pronounced dah-VAY, not DAY-vee.
And she also plays Jake Gyllenhaal's younger sister Samantha in Donnie Darko.

Yeah... the pronunciation is what ties the "McVeigh" in for me (and is certainly the most unsavory association imaginable).

She may be a talented actress (been too long since I saw Donnie Darko, and I never saw The Ring), but her name is horrid.

Holy what?! I never realized Samara was also Samantha Darko! She's so cute asking what a fuckass is in Donnie Darko, so annoying with her hair hanging in her face, looking like she's about to start cutting, in The Ring.
