Parents giving their children a combination of their names is very common in the Philippines. Recently I met someone whose name was created by combining her parents' names: Azucena and Melchor. Her name was Azumelch. I think that the best combination I've seen is Chrisella (Crisogono and Elena).

Here are some other combinations I've seen:

---

Arman (Arvie and Emmanuel)
Crisminda (Cristoffer and Luzviminda)
Pauliza (Paulo and Elizabeth)
Jhowin (Josephine and Erwin)
Laurelyn (Lorenzo and Jennylyn)
Mercybert (Mercedes and Roberto)
Celestica (after the grandparents, Celestino and Rustica)
Adeliosa (after the grandmas, Adelina and Liliosa)
