 I just found out two of my cousins' full names: Lora Lynne and Julie Marie

My aunt has a friend at work who named her daughter Ella John. John was after the woman's father whom she was very close to...
Not a fan. My mom said all she could think of was Elton John and I kind of agree.

Another name: Taylor Elizabeth.

That's all I'm trying to say. I've had people turn up their noses at both of my middle names (Helen and Maureen) because, apparently, they don't "go together". When I explain the meanings that the names have for my parents (Helen was my father's mother's name; she died when he was twelve -- "Maureen" means "longed-for child", and my parents were told they would never have a child, so when I was born, they chose that name specifically for the meaning), they still say stuff like, "Well, that's nice, but the names still don't sound right together."

But it's none of their business. If a name means something to someone, then it's a lovely name to them, and that's all that matters.
