Mars would have been awesome for a boy. At least it's a god. Don't really like how he's the god of war, though. I expect years of candy bar teasing. I can kind of push that association aside and like the name on a boy but I guess others can't. I dislike Merkaba and the whole combo doesn't have a feminine sound.

I love Seven Sirius and I like Rose. Puma is kind of ridiculous.

Seven, Puma, and Mars go together well. I don't care for Mars for a girl, but had the baby been a boy, I think it would have been neat.

Mars bars!

Even though Mars is a Roman god, all I think of is the chocolate bar when I hear the name Mars, especially after hearing "Twitty Milk".
I do think Mars Merkaba has a nice ring to it.

Be much better on a boy! Mars reminds me of Gustav Holst's the planets, Mars is the bringer of War... just too strong for a little girl..

You know what?

They're all quirky cool. I don't mind them. Except Twitty Milk... that is the worst joke I've ever heard.

LOL @ Twitty Milk

---

Mars and Sirius are actually mega-cool in the same sibset. Or separately for that matter.

---

Merkaba... I wonder if it has any family significance.

Seven is silly. Puma is silly but not outrageous. Rose is okay and I'm glad they gave her something to fall back on.

MAJOR EDIT: WAIT WAIT WAIT... It's a GIRL?!? Oh noooooo! Mars would've been amazing on a boy :(

I think Mars is kind of interesting [m]

for a girl, heck I like Jupiter on a girl :). I like Seven [I'd use] Sirius on a girl too.

This type of thing is to be expected from Erykah Badu hehe...

I'm not remotely surprised. I'd be more surprised if she named her kid like...Ava lol

On a girl? Really? Mars is something of a gp of mine but for a boy. It's better than Seven and Puma I guess.

I like Sirius and Rose, but the rest of those names just makes me wonder if those kids will be scarred by 2nd graders making fun of them. Seriously, little kids are cruel.

At first I thought it was a boy and I was a little thrilled- but it's just not working on a girl for me. Mars is uber masculine. I actually think I like Puma Rose more.

And Seven Sirius is such a cool name!!
