Xaynyn Eryk Dylyn??! ATTACK OF THE KILLER Y!!!!!!!1
Makalynne Charlene Rayne - I'm sure they're pronouncing this mah-KAY-lyn, but I want to say MACK-a-lyn. Rain and all its permutations as a MN is getting tired pretty quick.
Wilder as a name cracks me up. It's almost guaranteed to turn the kid's name into some weird phrase. I saw a BA for a Wilder Adventure somewhere.
What the devil is Blakemyn?Fiona Beverly is awesome! I know Beverly is generally considered frumpy, but I never got that vibe from it.

I want to say MACK-a-lyn with Makalynne too. I have the same problem with Makala, my cousin's name. Makala is pronounced Michaela. It's enough to give me a headache, especially since her mom (who named her) is a college graduate and an accountant who you'd think would be familiar with spelling things correctly.I'm guessing that Blakemyn is Blakeman, aka the last name, trendyfied.Fiona Beverly was a surprise. Even though I don't like either name individually, together they really work well.

I know, when I read Braiylin Anthonie I thought for sure it was a girl. It looks like the kind of spelling parents would usually inflict on a girl, giving her brother something overwhelmingly normal, like Daniel Matthew.Xaynyn Eryk Dylyn is just sad. There's no other word for it. I mean, there are names that seem difficult to go through life with, but this one...I hope he changes it when he gets older.

Trenidy Lacole - when I first read this, I thought she was actually named "Trendy".
Xaynyn Eryk Dylyn - ok, I recognize Erik and Dylan, but what is Xaynyn? And why wasn't it possible to replace the last vowel, too? His A must feel lonely ;-)
Anyway, I like:William Clifford
William Robert
Chloe Elyse
Benjamin Graham
Juliana Christine
Audrey
Claire Margaret
Jean
Adelle
Frances - for a girl, though.
Warren
Clara Ann
Alice
Miles Douglas
Sadie Annemarie
Chloe Elizabeth
Claire Virginia
Donald
Corbyn Gerald - spelt Corbin

I have no clue what Xaynyn is. It seems like Zane combined with -en. Like Zanen. Man, that's awful. The a thing is funny. Why leave just one? He could have been Xyynyn. Now that would have been unique.

Funny how it's exciting to look at BAs. I might actually go look at my local ones right after this. :)Like:
Jonathon Paul - prefer Jonathan
William Clifford - ooh, handsome!
Greta Lane - very silverscreeny
Roger Aricin - I wonder what the mn is? Love Roger though and so exciting to see it in a BA!
Benjamin Graham - love
Juliana Christine
Hazel Evangeline
Claire Margaret - two of my faves!
Charles Everett
George Mateo
Emma June - cute
Maudiline Lana - mostly wanted to say I love Magdalene pronounced the way they're going for with this, I'd imagine. At first I thought this was Maudlin, which is a GP.
Sylas Warren Michael - if only 'twere Silas, but love the Warren Michael part
Everett Michael - Is Everett getting more popular? Seems like it could. I really like it.
Fiona Beverly - Oh! I can never find good Fiona combos, who woulda thunk a great one would show up in a BA?
Miles Douglas
Michaela June - super cute and omg they spelled it right!

Yes! Looking at BAs is a lot of fun. We need more BA posts around here. We'll call it research.Magdalen pronounced maud-len is a GP of mine, which much be pretty much identical to your Maudlin. I'm not sure which spelling here I like better, actually. They're both so pretty.I have no idea what Boden is. I'm curious about it too.

I'd be thrilled about more BAs. It's just so interesting to see what parents come up with. I'm one of those obsessive list-makers, and I've been keeping documents since 2005, one for each year, of names I find interesting in some way, whether good or bad. They get longer and longer each year! This is just for my own amusement... please don't look at me like that ;)

Tell me about it! I do that same thing. Some of the best combos I've ever come across were in BAs (as well as the worst). Before my old computer crashed I must have had thousands of combos collected that I kept around just because. They're great inspiration.

Oooh, careful what you wish for! I might just go and post some of my (more or less) local BAs ;-)
I love Magdalen pronounced maud-lin. I just always wonder how usable this pronunciation would be in real life :/
By the way, "Boden" is the German word for floor, soil. So Boden Dexter looks almost like some technical term or some job title to me ;-)

Please do so! (you know, if you want) We should have a Message Board just for BAs. That would be cool.Yeah, I wonder that too. It would mean constant correcting. I don't think most people would get it. Middle name, maybe?Ohhh. I wonder if those people knew that. If so, how odd.

Aha I shall go post my findings now!There's a road we drive by when we travel south called Maudlin, which led me to think it would be a pretty name, which led me to discover it's a depressing word. But I think that makes it interesting.

Ah! Yeah, if my brain were any good with words I might have noticed that. It does make it interesting as well as unusable for a real life child. If only I played Sims. Or a cat! Maudlin would work really well on a cat. Two cats, one named Maudlin and the other Winsome. Does that sound like the basis for a children's story or what?

Trenidy? It has "trendy" in it! Are these parents crazy?Skeeter is pretty funny. Makes me think of Skeeter Valentine from Doug.
