A few thoughts:
Traeh — heart spelled backwards? Really? What is with this trend of reversing words and using them as names? Traeh is also one letter from Trash, which is unfortunate. Autocorrect will likely change it to trash.
Kenzingtyn— wow. Just wow. Kensington is bad enough but Kenzingtyn just looks like a parody of tryndee names, like MikMadysynne or Nevaehleighdyn.
Mars — was this really used on a girl? Mars is the Roman god of war and a traditional symbol for maleness. I’m all for bending gender but this is too much.
Rayden — I’m starting to be convinced that the -ayden trend isn’t actually dying out, just evolving. Aiden and Cayden were the 90s thing, now we’re moving on to Zayden and Rayden. To be fair I don’t actually hate this name, just wondering when this trend will lose steam.
Brewen — like brewing coffee or alcohol? Really? This name has no other association for me. I’m starting to think some folks will take any random syllable, slap -en on the end of it, and turn it into a name.
The good:
Tillian — this reminds me of the singer with the same name, and I’m a big fan of him so I kinda like this.
Ava Leticia — Ava is meh but I love the name Leticia, and it fits well in this combo.
Severin Raymond — I know it follows the -in trend, but I still adore the name Severin. It seems sweet and substantial, which is kind of a rare combination.
Robin Elias Drayton — love Robin Elias as a combo, and I’m assuming (hoping?) Drayton is a family surname.
