my boyfriend and I have not yet conceived a second child, but of course are always thinking of names. right now we think these might be the names we will be going with:

Kairi Kekipi, pronounced kai-ree keh-key-pee, kairi we got from kingdom hearts and is japanese for sea village and kekipi is hawaiian for rebellion.
Roxas Abbot, pronounced rocks-us ab-but, roxas is a filipino name and abbot is after abby hoffman, one of my boyfriends heroes.

Our first is micheline, french because of my boyfriend, so we kinda want the next one to have a more filipino/pacific islanderish name because i am filipino.

the only 'filipino/pacific islanderish' names you could agree on were both kingdom hearts names?

that being said, i don't mind Kairi--it falls into the kira, kiera, kiara chiara group and the game association wouldn't be as apparent. Middle names don't bother me so much b/c most people will never know what it is

Roxas is much more obvious (as a KH name), although it is a 'cool' sounding name
...however, if you don't care about the game associations--or if thats why you love them even more-- go for it

Oh, and I like Micheline! :)

I like Roxas Abbot. Kairi Kekipi has a few too many k's for my taste, but the sound of Kairi is pretty.

OMG, Kairi and Roxas? One video game name is ok, but if you plan to give these names to siblings, that would be a bad idea. However, as far as video game names go, I think Kairi and Roxas are both awesome.

Okay, I admit, I like the name Kairi, but please, please don't use Kairi and Roxas. Are you gonna name the next one Namine? =P

I really like Kairi, but not the alliteration with Kekipi (which is a cute name!). Maybe something French to go with Micheline?

Not a fan of Roxas (as a name or in the game, really :p). Abbot makes a pretty good middle name though.
