Oh I really like Siniša! It is pronounced like "sin-ee-sha"?

And hooray for Doris! Is Doris considered dated there like it is in North America?

The family set of Eva, Dean and Alma is too adorable!

Siniša is pronounced "SEEN-ee-sha". Listen here: http://www.forvo.com/search/sinisa/hr/

No, Doris came into use in the 1960s and was never popular, so it’s not seen as that dated. I’ve only met one in real life and she’s 24.

Just to note, Dean is pronounced ‘DEH-ahn’. Listen here: http://www.forvo.com/search/dean/hr/
