Melbourne, Australia birth announcements!

[biancasablancas.livejournal.com]

There are a couple of shockers today! Siblings in brackets.

William James - They specified that his nn will be Billy. I think Billy James is the cutest nickname and William is a sturdy, respectable name for when he's older.
April Natasha - indifferent.
Keeley Ha'ne Rae - what's with the apostrophes? how do you even pronounce that?
Honor Marie (Jack) - isn't that what Halle Berry's daughter is called?
Dayen Jake (Taya) - urgh. When will people realise that randomsyllable + en/yn doesn't make a name? I saw a Tarrkyn the other day.
Thomas Shane
Jason Xavier (Natalie, Jessica)
Ethan Vincent
Mikayla Bella (Taya)
Sienna Emily (Rebecca)
Christian Peter (Ava, Will) - love this sibset.
Taylor Jade
Bethany Ruby (Caitlyn, Aleisha) - Caitlyn is the only name I like here.
Sophie Meg Patricia - this doesn't really flow. Sophie Meg would have been cute.
Ryker Cain (Camryn) - can't help but think of Lt Riker off Star Trek!
Also, Camryn is a horrible spelling.
Harrison Jamie (Jack)
Niamh Elizabeth - her mother's name is Fiona so I'm guessing she's honoring her background with Niamh. It's cute. Pronounced neev, right?
Edward Joseph (Bella)
Ashton David (Liam) - Like both of these names :)
Brooke Lorraine (Anna) - I love Anna, don't meet too many young Annas.
Kaylee Alice Patricia
Ava Madeline
Tyson James (Grace, Mikehel)
Ashley Lauren (Cayleb) - Why not Caleb?
Lucinda Chloe

Edward Joseph (Bella)

...is that for real?

my friend is called niamh, but the pronunciation and spelling is SO off for me that whenever i see her name written, i'm just like, WHO?!

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Niamh is pronounced like Neve! I love the name Neve, and I prefer this spelling...I imagine Niamh would be mispronounced too often.

I also like April, Brooke & Anna and Ashton David & Liam.

Two Tayas? Wow. It's on my list because I absolutely adore it, but it's not a name I find people really like, so it's weird seeing it.

And Honor Marie was Jessica Alba's daughter. :)

Bethany Ruby doesn't flow well. I think its a bad idea to have two -y names in one name.

Honor Marie is Jessica Alba's baby, actually. I can't believe that somebody gave their kid the exact same name. It amuses me. Whether or not they know about Jessica Alba or not.

At least it's not Edward Anthony. My friend who reads those books said that that's Edward Cullan(?)'s middle name.

Whoops!
I don't really like Taya. It sounds really harsh.
