Other comments:
The spelling makes all the difference: Emilie, Kamryn, and Shayne.
Attack of the boy's name for a girl: Kamryn.
There's those nicknames as formal names: Jake and Ty.
God awful twin names!: Wynton and Clinton (Why on earth would the parents do that to those poor boys!? I want to slap them for it!)
Just plain "what were they thinking?!": Shacara, Isable, Na'Tyjah, Ruhi Bokka, Saniya, Leyva, and Wynton.
