Matt Damon and his wife Luciana have welcomed their fourth child, a fourth daughter, actually, named Stella Zavala. Stella's older sisters are named Alexia, Isabella and Gia.

WDYT? Because I think it's a lot A's. Too matchy for my taste, but beyond that, Stella is the only one I actually like anyway.

I agree with too many -a endings.

I love Stella, but I would prefer the full name of Estella and then use Stella as the nn. Some people don't agree with that, but I just like for someone to have as many possible "names" for themselves in case they don't like a nn or a full name.

I have a kitty named Estella and we call her Stella probably 98% of the time. So obviously, I love the name!

I'm not a fan of Alexia, Isabella or Gia, though.

I think it's a lot of A's, but at least it's not something like Jamie Oliver calls his kids.

Stella is one of my faves. I actually like them all together as well, despite the matching. I guess because the names have possible nicknames that are quite different to the others.

I don't like Stella (it's definitely my least favorite) or Zavala.
That is a lot of As, but they're not absolutely horrible [individually], unlike some other celeb's choices, so I'll forgive it. ^^

Didn't they give their last baby Zavala as a middle name as well? That def. changes the melody of the names.

I was thinking the same. It must be a family name or something. I'm not sure if they ever released Isabella's middle, but I'm 99% sure Gia's is Zavala, too. I wonder if they're going all Sylvester Stallone (his three girls are all S--- Rose)

I think older sister Gia's middle name is Zavala, too. I heard it's commonly a last name in the Spanish-speaking world, so maybe it's a family name for Luciana?

There do seem to be a lot of A's in this sibset, but they're still decent names. Only Alexia bothers me.

It's definitely a bit too matchy, but I adore Stella.

Personally, I'd rather that they all END with -a than all starting with A. I really like Gia and Isabella, and I think Stella is pretty but NMS. It's funny that they seem to be drawn to names that end in -a, because I am the opposite. I prefer -e ending (or the "ee" sound) on most names. Ex: Camille over Camilla, Isabelle over Isabella, Emily over Amelia/Emilia, etc.

Their kids names are sooo plain and boring. Obviously not Zavala, but...

I like Stella, I don't like any of the others even a little bit :/

I like Gia and Alexia. The other two names are not my style, but they're pretty nice!
