HelpSchool Swap- tv programme
So for the past two weeks husband and I have been watching a school swap programme on tv. Children aged around 16 years old have swapped schools and in some cases families for three weeks. The American children are from Mena, Arkansas and the British children are from South London.

Magda’s sweet!
What’s Richae??
What’s Richae??
I assume Richae is meant to be a feminisation of Richard and it is pronounced Rishay
Oh, I really like that!
That's what I'm assuming, too. My alarmed question was rhetorical, LOL.
Waylon is unconvincing: sounds like Wailin' and looks like a synthetic textile.
Eli - not the best biblical name available!
Jayla, as in Prison Warder? No, really!
Sailor had better not suffer from sea-sickness. Vocational names just don't appeal to me at all.
Grace ... not keen on virtue names either.
Dae-Juan is baffling. Day-one? Very strange.
Hey Jude, don't make it bad; take a sad song and make it better ...
Naomi is quite nice
Richae ?!? Girl version of Richard, I suppose, but it doesn't work for me.
Magda is nice, but better as a nn for Magdalen
Lily and Poppy: very trendy, pretty and sentimental

I’ve been watching it too! You’ve beat me to making a post haha.
From the Americans I like Eli and Grace best, and I’ve been warming up to Jayla. Waylon and Sailor are a bit too unusual/trendy for me.
I like the British set a lot- especially Dae-Jaun and Jude. I like the Dae element of Dae-Jaun, and I think Jude sounds very classy. Richae is also quite pleasant, and Magda is growing on me. I’m not as sure about Naomi, and Lily and Poppy (while nice) don’t really stick out to me as they’re so common in the UK.
