Isn't Avantasia a band?
Anyway, I like some of those (like Luna Valentina, Lennox, Oden, Adele, Astraea, Alice, Saskia, Isolde, Olympia, Nala, Caspian, and Victor.) I could also be convinced to like November, Elvira, Sebian, Anakin, and Havanna. Some of those are just too strange though... like Allexhander and Lauwerina. Kiwi would be kind of cute as a nickname though...

Just to think that America is the land of bad names
I think Sweden comes in second, the name Lego is comedic to me.

Yeah, maybe...
It's strange, because we actually have special rules considering names, but they are very liberal nowadays.

Hey! I know the mother to two of these (they are siblings) but I have never known their middle names until now. And since they are two such unusual names, I'm pretty sure its the same sibset. But the two girls have a little brother by now too.
I have seen most of these names before too. I guess we have checked the same place. :-)
