Wdyt of the name Riley James?

My cousin has decided to use it on her baby that's due.. uh.. in a few months. Soon, though.

I hate it. I hate it SOBAD. I don't know why. Riley seems like a girls name to me, and James.. well. James is her father's middle name. But she already has a younger brother who has the middle name James.

It just.. ugh.

People just use "filler" as "It sounds nice" which is usually the method that Marie is used in.

But then again, if you are using that criteria, my entire name is filler because my mother picked it based on "I liked it." And I'll name my children that way, too.

You are so right! No one ever complains about a filler first name, even if its really common. Who picks a name for their kids that they don't think sounds nice?

I mean, why would Alexander James be a filler and Alexander Nicholas/Benjamin/Gabriel not? I mean, they all sound nice (just an example).
