Matteo Tomaz - very nice. I really love MatteoKoa Thomas - The parents have very different tastes than mine but not a bad name. Different but not bizarre; kind of coolBenno - really dislike. I think of Beano as in "take Beano & there will be no gas"Wellington Reade - it does feel very British so I like it for a British family. And Wells is a neat nickname. Prefer the spelling Reed or Reid though

No Doubt babiesNo Doubt is one of my all time favorite bands, and Tom Dumont's newest son is one of six boys and a girl for the band:Mason James Young (son of drummer Adrian)
Ace Joseph Dumont (son of guitarist Tom)
Kingston James McGregor Rossdale (son of singer Gwen Stefani)
Rio Atticus Dumont (son of Tom)
Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale (son of Gwen Stefani)
Coco Reese Lakshmi Kanal (daughter of bassist Tony)
Koa Thomas Dumont (son of Tom)The SoCal vibe is very apparent in their naming style lol.

I actually think the Dumont boys have super cool names. Rio Atticus is my favourite but I love that they have paired short and spunky nicknames that are a bit unusual and trendy sounding with traditional and solid middle names. Big fan of them.While Wellington Reade is way too pretentious for my taste, Wells is a cool nickname. And JR and Wells sound cute together

Sarah Maria is pretty, but I'm biased (;
I like Max as a nn, but it's getting too popular here
