some yay, some nay

I think Jordyn Braxton is AWFUL, sorry. Surname as fn - usually not. Jordan for a girl - no. Male name feminized w/ a y - no. So, all-around gross.
None of the other girls' names capture my imagination, though Ella is okay. The boys fared better. Christopher Richard, Liam David, Zachary Thomas and Miles Xavier are all very, very nice. I like Jonathan pretty well, but Joshua is overused around here. Brostrie - no. Kefir Zede - I'm uncertain of its cultural origins, but I don't think I like it.
As for parents, Navadene obviously very unusual, nms. Ditto for Kirra. I am unfamiliar w/ Kunda; sounds African?
