The names just sound 'ethnic' to me. But yes, uncommon very much.

I really like the way Saada sounds when I say it out loud. I dont like the way it looks. I think Apryl looks horrible too.

I like Sherwin, although I'd never use it. It reminds me of the paint store...lol.

I love Lindy, Tanika and Sayeed (thought isn't it usually Sayid?). Saada sounds cool too.

Apryl is ugly.

I don't make many judgements on ethnic sounding names. I just don't have the experience to do so.

Sayeed is a common name for Muslims of many ethnic backgrounds.

The way you put the name Saada phonetically sounds like the Arabic word for "car"...I like it though.
