I like Pasquale a lot. Do you pronounce it like Pass-kwal or Posh-kwal-ay? Giuliana Rancic's brother pronounces it like Poshkwalay I think.

Lisa Marie is kind of funny. Same with Anna Nicolette. I hope her last name isn't Smith.

Olivia Celeste is nice.

Essence? Is she Asian (every Mai I know has been Vietnamese)? Did she *choose* Essence as her english name?

Lawson is interesting except it sounds like someone is trying to say Larson but has an accent. I like the pairing of Lawson and Gray.

I think Pasquale is the Italian spelling, so it would be pass-kwall-eh. (Basing this also on the use of Dominick which is typically Italian as well, in my experience)

We pronounce it like pass-kwal. It is my late father in laws name. I loved it!

And you're so right! Luckily Smith or Presley are not either of the last names=)

Essence is not Asian. She is actually Italian. My best friend let he husband pick the name of her two children. He's very interested in the Asian culture. Lawson Grey is Essence's brother. Lawson is the last name of one of there uncles and Gray is my friends moms middle name. Wouldn't be a name I would choose, but I also love the way his name sounds.

I also really like Olivia Celeste. Very classy name.
