[Opinions] Minik and Ivalo

Minik means "viscid train oil which is being used as sealing for skin boats" (http://www.nordicnames.de/wiki/Minik)
Ivalo is a variant of Ivalu and means "tendon, thread, sinew" (http://www.nordicnames.de/wiki/Ivalu)
They're Greenlandic names.

I like both kids' names, although I think Josephine is so boring and Vincent is a little out of place...
