The newborn daughter of the Dutch comedian Jochem Myjer is called Limoni Maria Marja Myjer.

Is Limoni even a name? Makes me think of lemonade...

Now, I don't really know much about J's in the middle of names, but wouldn't Maria and Marja be really close? As in, Marja is just a different word for Maria, like Mary?

Limoni just probably isn't an English word.

Limoni is way too close to "limone" (= lemon) in italian.

Also, Maria and Marja look way too similar to be used together!

lol, it reminds me of that movie lemony snickett or whatever it is.

Do you speak Dutch?

mmm... lemony...

The two middle names and the surname are all really close. At least in appearance, dunno about pronunciation as I can only count to ten in Dutch and that's it.

Yes, I am Dutch ;)

Limoni isn't a Dutch word either, it sounds like Italian or something. Maria and Marja aren't pronounced the same way (it's something like 'mar-ee-a' and 'mar-ya') but it's really close.

That was my first thought when I saw the name ;) Maria and Marja aren't pronounced the same way (it's something like 'mar-ee-a' and 'mar-ya') but it's really close.

There's a little girl in the Louis de Berniere book Captain Correlli's Mandolin called Lemonie, which I think is absolutely beautiful, but my husband has vetoed it.
