Love Snježana, Anja and Dejan. Do you have any more info on Safeta, Amel and Anel?
Yay Agatha and yay Lettice.
Boo Amelie - so bored with it now
Felix and Willoughby is so posh it's silly, but I guess also kind of fun
Calypso and Kit as a pair is interesting - Archie and Ella are a bit boring, but it's nice to see Harold.

Anel –male form of female name Anela (from Italian Anella – a diminutive of Anna/Ana). Used in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia, primarily by Muslims.
Amel –Arabic, from ‘amal’ meaning ‘work’. Used by Bosnian Muslims.
Safeta is also used by Muslims, not sure of the origin.
Amel –Arabic, from ‘amal’ meaning ‘work’. Used by Bosnian Muslims.
Safeta is also used by Muslims, not sure of the origin.

In Croatian they'd be more or less the same, pronounced like 'AH-nah-stah-zee-yah' and 'AH-nah-stah-see-ah'. The last -sia/-zija sounds almost the same when said out loud.

I suspected as much but didn't want to assume.

There's a famous American musician Arlo Guthrie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arlo_Guthrie) and it seems to be becoming a bit of a celebrity trendy name (like Harlow). Australian singer Kasey Chambers, British reporter Natasha Kaplinsky and Scottish singer Karine Polwart all have sons named Arlo.

Harlow makes sense - Arlo has that same trendy feel. I see the appeal. I can't say I'm a huge fan, but I do like that so far I've only seen it on boys:)

I think Arlo is like a male form of Harlow in people's minds, so I think it won't cross to the girls.
