Angiluz - neat name!
London Bourne - omg, wow pretentious wow.
Brock Alan - Brock is, too!
Noha Kyle - No ha? Aww.. that's so serious.
Fabian Alexis - keeping my big mouth shut on this.
I am going to have to look up the meaning of Corydon now...
I found this on Wikipedia and I'm posting it here because it's of interest on the site, imo.
begin quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corydon
Corydon is the title of a book by Andre Gide about homosexuality. The contents were published at various times from 1911 to 1920, and the book appeared in 1924. [..] It takes its title from Corydon, a shepherd whose love for a boy is described in the Eclogues of the Roman poet Virgil (Publius Vergilius Maro, 70-19 B.C.E.).
Corydon had been the typical name for a Shepherd in earlier (pastoral poems) and (fables), such as the one in Idyll 4 of the Syracusan poet Theocritus (c.310-250 B.C.E.). The name Corydon comes from the Greek korudos, "lark").
Other typical names for such poetic figures are as follows:
* a Rooster = Chaunticleer (from French Chanticler; [chant + clear, in reference to its crow])
* a Fox = Reynard (from French Reignart; reign + -ard, "kingly one")
* a Cat = Felix (from Latin felix, "happy" [influenced by Latin feles, "cat, feline"])
* a Dog = Rufus (fom Latin rufus, "red" [influenced by ruff, the bark of a dog])

What a selection!
Not many I like here, but the few would be:
Maya Lynn and Sophia Nicole.
Not too crazy about either, but they don't aggravate me.
Susanna is ok to me, but only that spelling.
Robert Owen is nice.
Michael Vincent is ok (same bracket as Sophia Nicole I guess) but I would have prefered Vincent Michael.
Split from the combos I like Alan and Allen, and Lincoln is ok.
