I just think that some parents go too far out with the names.
Now Jessie or James by itself isn't bad but many know the association of the two. OR James Jessie! OR they could say JJ.
Lila itself is a nice name but what is up with D' or the Star?
I knew a girl whose parents named her Star and she said the first thing she would do when she turned 18 was to save her money to legally have her named changed.
I'm a fan of Delilah (there are worse Biblical characters, IMO), but D'Lila is just stupid. At least she can change the spelling when she turns 18 though.
Jessie James would be awful on a girl without the outlaw thing (which I'm sure is the only reason for the name), Jessica Jane, as mentioned before or even Jessica Jamesina would have been fine.
Oh my good god. I would say D'Lila Star is phonetically prettier, but so much uglier. I wouldn't even pronounce that Delilah. I sat here saying 'Dlila', Dilila, then finally got 'Delilah'.

I sometimes wonder what parents are thinking.
