I figured it was the Telegraph because of the overabundance of two or more middle names, but you might be right because most of them flow pretty well---Telegraph names tend to be a bit clunky in that regard.

They may seem "better" simply because you're not used to them. Some people in the UK may be just as annoyed with given nicknames (Alfie, Archie, Charlie) as American name nerds are with the -ayden names (I think I've seen some Nameberry comments to that effect, in fact). And unfortunately, unaltered Gaelic names don't work as well over here because of their non-intuitive pronunciation. On the other hand, the U.S. Top 1000 has many gorgeous Spanish names on it, (Santiago, Rodrigo, Mateo, and Octavio are some of my favorites for boys), but name nerds hardly ever talk about those.
