I went to school with a Minh. He had a perfect GPA and was ranked #1… I was #2 and very jealous.
Minh is okay. Launa is not bad but Lana looks better. I don't like Angelica, but I would Angie or Angel as a NN, not Jelly. The "gel" is actually the part of the name that I don't like. Kenneth is a good name, I really like Wade, and I think that Edison is neat because it sounds serious and scholarly (reminding me of Thomas Edison, I guess) but also nerdy and approachable, in comparison to other surnames as first names.
Kenneth and Edison are okDon't really like the others Laura would be nice but Launa ikk, Lorna is ok
I like Kenneth very much. Jelly is an amusing nn, but not one that I'd like for myself. I infinitely prefer Laura to Launa. Wade and Edison are just two more tedious lnfns, and I would have guessed that Minh is or can be also a surname, though I don't know and can't be bothered to look up the order of Vietnamese names. It makes me think of the Goon Show (BBC 1950s radio comedy), which means that I love it but would never use it in my wildest nightmares.
Jelly is a very cute nickname for Angelica!
