Cherish Alleyah: Does this sound like a command to anyone else?
Frantresa: But, but, Francis and Theresa are such lovely names! And this is such crap. If they needed to be egotistical, why didn't they call her Frances Theresa or Theresa Frances?
Jynjer: I'd never have thought it. Worse than Jinger Dugger.
Mystic (Rayne and Hunter): Passing down the tradition of bad names. I honestly cannot tell which of her parents is the male, or if there's two males, or two females, or maybe they're both transsexual...
Promise: Twee.
Rhian Jenai: What's a Jenai? Is it like a Jenny? Or a Jedi? Or a Jedi named Jenny?
Sapphire: Twee.
Shakima-Sincere: Tweer. And what is a Shakima? Shake it, Ma?
Rommel: What is this supposed to be?
Traveler: How precious.
Assiatou: Really? Like "sit down" in French, in crappy grammar? (Assiez-vous would be correct, assiez-tu is inappropriatly conjugated.) Anyway, all I hear is "sit down". Is his middle name John?
Hennacey: Is this supposed to be like Tennesee?
Hilaria: I actually don't think this is that bad of a name. Pronounced as it's listed in the database, it's rather pretty. However, pronounced hi-LA-ree-a, which is how I initially pronounced it, it sounds like malaria.
Hubertha: Is this meant to be a feminisation of Hubert? Yikes.
Ken'nianiah: I can't put a glottal stop there; I tried.
Khascian: Sounds like a nationality, doesn't it?
Mehwish: A directionless character from Into the Woods- "Meh...I wish...I guess..."
Messiah: Jesus, I understand. That's a name. Messiah is a bloody title. Also, maybe no one clued these parents into the part where messiahs aren't supposed to say that they are the messiah, because someone who does that couldn't be the messiah? Good God!
Nairobi: City names are stupid. This is no exception.
Ocean: Meh.
Phearith: Nay, do not fearith the Lord, for he is Good...
Rhym: Job.

Zyon and Zyron: What. The. Fuck. Parents, here's the nifty thing about twins. You don't have to match them. The come pre-matched! Your effort should go into letting them have their own bleeding identites!

I like:

---

None of them.

girls:
(Rayne and Hunter) - Rain
Promise
Sapphire

---

boys:
Traveler

---

passworded:
Nairobi
Ocean

Zyon and Zyron for twins is most ridiculous thing I've heard for a while.

---

Promise and Sapphire are nice.

girls:
Cherish Alleyah - Cherish is bad. Alleyah is ok, but not this spelling.
Frantresa (parents Francis and Theresa) - it's like 'Fantasia' with a lisp...
Jynjer - Ginger is just ok. Spelt like this, just no.
Mystic (Rayne and Hunter) - bad
Promise - bad
Rhian Jenai - Rhian is almost ok. Jenai sounds too much like Jedi
Sapphire - the only name I actually might consider using.
Shakima-Sincere - really? This would have been bad enough as separate fn and mn, but no, her folks had to go and HYPHENATE it. What's Shakima? It looks like Shakira + Sashimi.

---

boys:
Rommel - maybe passable in a fantasy novel
Traveler - no

---

passworded:
Assiatou - What? It has the word 'ass' in it. The kid is going to get hassled
Hennacey - Hennessey is bad enough as a fn but they had to go and spell it differently!
Hilaria - Hilarious...minus the 's'
Hubertha - Poor girl (it is a girl, right?)
Ken'nianiah - just.... no
Khascian - there are no words
Mehwish - meh! wish his folks could've come up with a better name (sorry that was terrible!)
Messiah - Like naming him Jesus (which I know is common in spanish-speaking countries), but at least Jesus is name, not a title.
Nairobi - unless the kid was born there, no
Ocean - maybe. Kind of cute. I actually know a kid called this.
Phearith - like Pharaoh + Perth? indecipherable
Rhym - it's bad enough to begin with, then they went and left off the 'e'

---

twins: Zyon and Zyron - are their parents serious? They're both going to get called 'Zy' by schoolmates, it'll be so confusing.
