[Opinions] Re: Montana Birth Announcements
in reply to a message by Shaymin
I guess a lot of people seem to completely ignore the names of the kids they already have when naming a new baby?
Lauralai Oak - I like Lorelei, and I like Oak as a middle name for a boy, but I don't like the hybrid Lauralai. It looks like they did it just so they could use Laura as a nickname when they should have just used Lorelei "Lora" or Laura by itself.
Mary Karen (Nell) - Mary, Karen, and Nell are all dated and boring. Nell could be cute by itself and Mary would be okay as a generic filler name if you're called something else, but Karen?
Paige Mona (Autumn & Harper) - Paige is icky. I don't see Mona that often. I actually like Autumn and Harper together.
Eva Elisabeth - Pretty good, except I don't like double letters
Adlee Diane (Tessa & Jaymalyn) - Diane is ok. Adlee looks weird. Adley? And Tessa seems normal but Jaymalyn has another weird spelling
Tova Rose - I like this combo
D'Naya Nola (Brielle, Bridger & Slade) - D'Naya looks fine but it sounds like "deny ya". Nola is too redundant in this combo. Brielle is nice in the right combo. Bridger is overused and Slade sounds like a try-hard action hero name or something. And none of these sibling names go together!
Ivy Irene (Mila & Lainey) - Ivy is great but Irene is bad, and too much "I". Mila is cute, Lainey is alright if it's short for something.
Quindalynn Marie (Payton & Parker) - Quindalynn is overcomplicated. Quinda? Quinlyn? Just Quin? And Payton & Parker go together well but I hate both :P
Aurora Noelle (Lucille & Abraham) - The sibset doesn't go together, but Aurora is good and Aurora Noelle kind of works.
Wrigley Kay (Griffin) - wriggly...? I like Griffin though
Sawyer Gwendolyn (Connor, Maddox & Zoie)
Eden Virginia - Nms but I like it.
Jane Marie - Boring but cute (and Jane is actally not that boring as a first name)
Freya Olive Zamira (Diezel, Tallon & Arrow) - Hmm... There's a lot going on here, I'm guessing I'd like about half of the names those parents like.
Pauleena Florence - This combo would be pretty good if it was Paulina. That "ee" thing always looks awkward. Paulina Florence is something I think
Azalea Indigo (Arkadian) - I actually like Azalea Indigo even though it's two nouns. Arkadian is not very namey.
Roxie Rose (Sophia) - Sounds like a stage name.
Silvia Grace - Pretty
Ruth Annah (George, Charles & June) - I like it, it's dated in a good way. Doesn't go with June though.
Evelette Christine (Nicholas) - Too frilly for me but the combo is pretty good.
Charlotte Fortunata (Ava) - I kind of like this one
Colette Alaina (Evangeline) - I like the sibset, but Colette Alaina blends into "co letta laina"
Talulah Jade (Sophia) - I don't like Talulah but Jade is a good middle name.
Lenora Jo - Lenora is great. Jo is out of place here I think, even keeping it one syllable but making it look longer (like Lenora Joan) would be better.
Radleigh Bell - Eew (and why pair a long ugly complicated name with a short pretty simple name??)
Atliss Elizabeth - ...is this "atlas" in parseltongue?
Brynn Susan (Sawyer) - Alright, I suppose
Amila Sicily Mahe Lani (John) - That's... long. Sicily is kind of a GP for me
Ruth Clara - Okay, I like both names but not sure about the combo
Tesla Marie (Payton, Brady & Wynter) - Just by sound alone, I see why Tesla could be a girly first name, but also not really. Wynter is a GP
Mataya Lucille - I don't like Lucille but Mataya is interesting. (if the "tay" is pronounced like the word "tie". If it's supposed to be a weird spelling of Mattea, then I don't like it.)
GracieMay Rose (Wyatt & Bentley) - Gracie May Rose would be good, but I don't like the double name with a capital letter in the middle (that looks like a tacky brand name or something). Gracie-May would also work.
Maeve Catherine (Louie) - I like this one
Autumn Grace (Isaac & Javik) - Alright. I like Autumn well enough, Grace is jus a filler. Isaac is alright anf Javik is interesting. I actually like the sibset
Sage Wilder - I like Sage, Wilder seems more masculine or surnamey to me though.
Patience Everly-Sue (Justice) - Way too cheesy
Kali Petina (Brady, Cheyenne, Arrow & Parker) - I wasn't expecting to see Arrow twice. I like it as an animal name, but I don't think I'd use it on a human. I like Kali (if it's actually Kali and not a different spelling of Kaylie) but Petina just looks like "patina" to me. I think Brady and Parker are bad and Cheyenne is just average.
Ophelia Eden (Thaeo) - I like this combo even though it's a little cheesy. Thaeo is pretty cool.
Nova Arlene Frankie (Zoe & Peyton) - I like Nova, and Zoe is fine. Arlene, Frankie, and Peyton are kind of ugly to me (but Peyton is more 90's and Arlene and Frankie are more like grandma names)
Lucy Elyn (Camille & Oliver) - Sounds good, but Ellen or Elin would have looked better. It goes with Camille, Oliver might fit in depending on the middle name.
Alaya Taylor (Kaina) - Alright. Taylor is boring but Alaya is good and the combo is fine. I kind of like Kaina too.
Opal Ember (Belief, Jubilee & Winter) - Belief and Jubilee are just silly, but I like Opal Ember and Winter.
Otto James - I kinda like it
Fenyx Orion - It looks cool but is Fenyx supposed to be like a weirdly spelled Phoenix?
Jett Robert - Meh, ok. Jett seems like more of a stage name or middle name though.
Jasper William (Rebekah, Jarret, Joston, Jakoby, Madilyn & Natalie) - That is way too many siblings, and Jasper William is the only good name out of all of them. It *might* go with Natalie with different siblings, but it doesn't go with any of those other siblings.
Lewin Allen (Rory) - Pretty good (I kind of like Lewin but I never see it)
Hendricks Orion - I like Orion (surprised it's showing up so often though)
Rowdy Greyson (William, Keivan & Camberan) - Rowdy is silly, it sounds like a name for a puppy that wouldn't even age well as the dog grew up. The other names are pretty good. I haven't heard Camberan before but it sounds pretty good.
Isaiah Thomas Rhett (Rowan) - I don't like Thomas or Rhett, but Isaiah and Rowan are good together.
Luka Fisher (Fia) - I like Luka, not Fisher
Broccan James (Zoie & Case) - Meh
Lucas Shea James - Okay, I guess I like it. Shea seems feminine to me though.
Haskill Glenn (Ezekiel, Chazz & Harlow) - Nah
Arthur Samuel - Okay
Loren Tucker (Samantha) - Weird. Loren is very mature and almost feminine, while Tucker is just the opposite. Tucker is also pretty ugly IMO. Samantha is halfway between them.
Ryker Odin - Odin is a cool mn but Ryker is cheesy
Samson James (Cecilia) - I'd reverse the first and middle names
Colt Russell (Reed) - Colt is cheesy and teenage. Russell is okay as a mn and I like Reed as a plant name (as opposed to Reid)
William Levi - I like William but Levi sounds like jeans
Bryar Curtis (Bridger) - Bryar seems like a hybrid of Briar and Bryan. I like Briar though.
Thatcher Julian - I'd like either of those names in different combos, but not together.
Carver James - Sounds like a "last name, first name" listing.
Otto Isaiah (Zephaniah) - Also interesting to see Otto showing up multiple times
Samuel Martin (Clyde & Bondi) - The siblings are weird but this name is fine
Uriak Keoki - I kind of like it
Porter Valentin - Valentin is cool to see
Huntley Jacob - Bleh. I've met one Huntley before and it just sounds trendy.
William Asher (Cade & Eden) - I kind of like this
Maverick Colter (Jackson, Taylor & McKinley) - Meh, kinda theatrical and the sibset is mismatched
Axel Gunther (Samantha) - Alright
Weston Bruce (Sean) - I like Weston & Sean. Bruce is too "brutish".
Adam Cassius - I'd switch the fn and mn but it's pretty good
Caspian James (William)- I like this one (and the sibset).
Raylan James - I know Raylan is probably just a trendy name but I like it
Perseus Teancam "Percy" - Perseus is great, now sure how to pronounce Teancam
Hawken Alexander (Maddex & Sawyer) - I'd switch the first and middle names, and Hawken sounds a little trendy but I still kind of like it. I'd prefer Alexander Hawk, or even Hawk Alexander.
Titus John (Nicholas) - I like it
Rowan Merle (Emilee) - I think I like this one.
Lincoln Tiberius - Very clashy but I like Tiberius
Bret Rhetoric (Zayn) - ...rhetoric?
Forest Dennis - Don't like Dennis, but Forest can be good (more as a middle name though)
Archer Douglas (Dameon, Amira, Valin, Nyla & Bishop) - Also a lot of kids... Archer is alright. Dameon, Amira, and Nyla are good. Not sure about Valin, and Bishop isn't very namey
Ansel Henry (Hazel) - I don't see Hazel very often, I like that. Not sure about Ansel Henry.
Louie Steven (Danielle & Jocelyn) - Okay
Lauralai Oak - I like Lorelei, and I like Oak as a middle name for a boy, but I don't like the hybrid Lauralai. It looks like they did it just so they could use Laura as a nickname when they should have just used Lorelei "Lora" or Laura by itself.
Mary Karen (Nell) - Mary, Karen, and Nell are all dated and boring. Nell could be cute by itself and Mary would be okay as a generic filler name if you're called something else, but Karen?
