I know a man from Africa who's name is Mamadu. I don't really like the name, but it could be worse.

Don't like any of the names, really. Essence is just... ew.

Saige and Louis don't go together to me. I'm not one for matchy-matchy names for twins or siblings in general, but usually the parents' tastes are evident in their choices- those seem far apart to me.

I like Adriana. The rest are just whatever, except for Essence, which is disgusting and makes me think of her name as a euphemism for the substances from which she was created from.

Even though I hated it before, I'll never look at it the same.. :blech:

I can't help it.. I like Keira and Saige, spelled exactly those ways. :::hangs head in shame:::

don't be ashamed of names you like! just because people in this community like to dis everyone else's taste in names doesn't mean you should have to hide when you're just giving your opinion. =)

Thanks.. =) But I meant it in a 'guilty pleasure' type way.. ;) They are sooooooo far off from my naming style.

i kinda like aria? and louis! i wonder if it's pronounced the french way like louie or like lewis?
mamadu/mamadou is a really popular name in west africa, a variant of the oh so popular muhammed.

I agree, I like Louis pronounced the French way but not like Lewis. I don't like the name Lewis in general. I think because of an old association I have with it. lol

lou-ee is wonderrrrful!

I really don't like the way they spelled Sage. The i wasn't necessary.

I like Amorlina. It's a unique made-up name but it's not horrible.

I also like Adriana.

I think I would like it better if it were Amorina. Something about the "l" in there makes it kind of weird and difficult to pronounce. I like Adriana too but I like Adrien(ne) better.

Essence is destined to be wafty and pale, shallow and with no personality.

Adriana- dont like
Keira- dont like
Mamadu- dont like
Aria- LOVE
Indu- dont like
Angelina Marie- dont like
Kaitlyn Amorlina- dont like the spelling, i do like Caitlin. Not so sure about Amorlina

Emily Rae- well there had to be an Emily in this list somewhere! not like
Kayden- like Caden
Essence- dont like
