New Cousin

[eveyalecia.livejournal.com]

My distant cousin gave birth to her third child today:

Klaire Louise

Little sister to Teigun (m, "tee-gun") and Kaylx (f, "kay-lix").

I'm not a fan of the odd spelling choices, but I do like the names. Calix used to be one of my favorites for a boy.

ETA: Calix is a legit name I swear! Kaylx is just a (super weird) spelling of it. Calix (pronounced kay-lix) is Greek and means "very handsome."

I love Claire (hate the K) and while Louise isn't my favorite middle name for it, I still think it's a nice name!

I've heard of Teagan, but never heard of Calix. Where the heck is that from?? Why do people think creative spelling is so wonderful?!

That K for Klaire is really going to annoy me. :(

I agree with you about the K. And the weird spellings. :/

Calix is a Greek name that means "very handsome." I think it's kind of odd to use for a girl like my cousin did. The feminine version is Calista, which I think is very pretty (and it means "most beautiful").

I really like the name Calista. (I blame Calista Flockhart; I never heard the name until I started watching Brothers & Sisters.)

I love the combination of Claire Louise, but the K is driving me crazy. Teagan is cute but that spelling is not, and I have never heard of Kaylx (Calix?) before.

Claire and Tegan are decent names. but the spelling of these two is vile.

As for Kaylix --- what the??? I've never heard of that name at all.

I do really like Calix/Kalix. My sister loved it in high school and I have grown to love it over the years. I think I like it because I also love the name Caleb.

Weeeell, the spelling for all of those names is a little weird, but I really like the name Calix!

I was nearly called Clare Louise. I really don't like the K :\

I definitely prefer Calix over the K and the Y.

So she gave the boy the name Teigun and the girl the name Kaylx? Wow... I would have done the opposite if I were her. Terrible spellings.

I do like Claire Louise though and I suppose the K spelling isn't that terrible.

ty-gun and kaylks, if it were up to me to refer to these kids by their names. I'm glad nobody in my family or social circle has butchered the spelling of their kids' names because I'd be a total dick.
