From the local paper, Facebook, and my son's school--

Dylan Michael and Dorah Louise
Krystyn Michele, Kayley Marie, and Kelsey Margaret
Joenee (prn Joe-nay) and Quentin
Cara-Elise and Sadie-May 
Austin James and Jackson Lucas
Siobhán, Mackenzie (male), and Sullivan

3rd Grade class:
Sophia
Alexis
Jackson

Cayley
Imene
Valerie
Angelyse

Teresa
Torence
David
Elizabeth
Bonita

Also, a friend of mine on FB "shared" a picture of her newborn niece, the caption posted by Mom: "Our new baby girl Jurnie Celina lastname. Big sisters are over the moon with her!" * Big sisters names: Jacaysia and Juleana. I asked my friend about how they say all of those gems: Jurnie = Journey, Jacaysia = Jah-kay-see-ah, Juleana = Julianna.

* I'm not into the double first names, but I keep saying Sadie-May with a southern accent LOL. I don't think it will age well, but it's cute for a little girl.

I like Luke Alexander. Lucas Alexander is actually on my own personal shortlist should I have a boy. :) Lucas after the name my parents would have named me if I was a boy, Alexander after one of my best friends. I haven't run it by DH yet though, but I'm not pregnant yet, so it isn't a priority yet (though I did tell him that Alexander is what I'd really want for a middle name).

I cannot imagine naming someone Cain. It just has such a bad connotation to me.

Sadie and May are both older names - they were popular in times past, so I think Sadie-May will age just fine.

Kayley and Kelsey are two of my least favorite names.

I love the name Sophia - my cousin's daughter is named Sophia.

I know that there's Jurnee Smollett so I'm kind of used to that name, but Jacaysia and Juleana?
