What a lovely set of names. I particularly like: Susanna (although I prefer Susannah), Elizabeth, Christian, Emil, Johannes and August. The one thing that bothers me as that the first two children have the same names as their parents - I realize this is what was often done in older days but it still annoys me as I find it doesn't give them their own identity.
