Sad story, but check out their names

A family of 10 was killed recently in a house fire in Kentucky. I pulled these names from a news article.

Sherry Lynn Maddox, 47
Johnny Lewis Litsey, 52
Crystal Maddox, 30
Ann-Ashia Maddox, 1
Dariyel Cyleigh Maddox, 3
Demita Jo "Ann" Maddox Wise, 26
Heaven and Earth Maddox, twins, 2
Deasha Danielle McKinney, 10 (cousin to the Maddox family)
Nakiya Genae McKinney, 8 (cousin)

Normally I could snark the hell out of those but with the circumstances, I'm not touching this one.

That's a terrible situation. I agree with the above comment that I can't be too harsh about names in this case. However, I would not name a child Earth, and the only name that I don't dislike is Crystal.

I also don't mind Johnny - forgot that one.

In the not for my kids category, I really really like Heaven and Earth as a twins set. They'd be good fetal names though.

That's such a sad story.

Isn't "Damita Jo" Janet Jackson's middle name?

That is really really sad.

Heaven & Earth though- euw.

heaven and earth! that's pretty neat, despite how off-the-wall it is.

That is so sad

I don't like Heaven and Earth... Earth isn't even a nice sound, it's just like the "euuughthhg" sound like "bleuuch"
